Obviously something has to change with the track. Handing out so many time penalties after the race is indicative of a huge issue.

Why? What has changed that this is such an issue now?

A lot of simulation where the parameters are set incorrectly and drivers are used to go all over the place.

Is it that simple though? Hard to believe. It’s probably multiple factors at play, including: drivers being exploitative, sloppiness/lack of repeatability, and car weights causing more sliding/drifting through the corner than expected.

I mean the half of the grid managed to not get penalties… you can make of that what you will, but for me in my armchair it looks mostly like the fault of the individual drivers.

And I think the white line rule exists only since 2022 (if I remember correctly), previously I think it was the end of the kerb?

Yep exactly. Same here in my armchair.
