LuiggiSpeed should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

I foresee bikes or cars using the slower path are rather stable by the time they sort out the chicane, but your observation is very wise, maybe the solution would be to enhance the pit lane a little more to the right, though it's already wider than the normal lane, only actual observation of bikes paths in reality can tell. Actually, in theory, you will not want to go too wild on exit of T2 since it'll screw your entrance angle to T3, you may want to hug the rumblestrip and keep left somewhat.

Sometimes, when it rains, races are deemed "flag to flag" and riders come and change bikes and maybe change it again if track dries out.
