A recent think back over the different accident we have had at Le Mans made me realize something, which I think could be an interesting topic of discussion in here:
Previously when major accidents occurred, the ACO had a tendency to change the track layout (more recently: chicanes and removal of the "hill" after the Mulsanne kink)
Today ACO's main focus isn't on the track layout as much as it's the aero of the cars. The last 5 years of "flights" leading to the BHF's and BHH's.
Both ways has received a lot of critique, but what is actually the best choice of the two "evils"?:
1. Change of Track Layout
2. Change of Car design
