Since Knockhill put in the foam barriers there has been a serious amount of cash saved by the barriers. They are much more car friendly than tyre walls.
I've seen big hits into the foam barrier, that have driven back to the paddock once pulled clear of the gravel with not even a scratch to the paint work. The same hit into the tyres would have ripped off a front or damaged sterring etc.
