There are some offs that you just can't really cater for. Two cars making it that far in 14 years of BTCC at Thruxton suggests it's not a major hazard.

The correct approach - in my view - as with any accident where a car ends up technically where it's not supposed to, will be to review what happened, consider the risks involved and decide whether there is anything that should be done that won't actually make it worse.

For a start, the idea of closer armco or a huge gravel trap on the outside of Church scares the living bejesus out of me. All kinds of far more likely scenarios where that would be worse than several acres of grass.
