I'm seeing this trending with regards to the T1 barrier change.

Looks like its completely blocking the pavement patch that was there before into T2?

I like this, it makes mistakes more costly, which I think is good.

OTOH the pit lane changes are a bummer if it makes pitting take more time. Cheap pit stops make for more diverse strategy.

Well that's...bizzare. How are they meant to get back in? Reversing seems weird.

Same as T1 at Monaco I guess!

What? This would be a crazy change. So cars are expected to drive through the grass?
