Last year it was more a case of just running wide in the damp conditions.
You jump the curbs as much as you can get away with to gain time. You should have seen how much air the CART machines were getting through the chicanes at Surfers Paradise in the early '90s. After the NASCAR boys were doing the same thing in the chicane on the main straight at Mexico City, they took the chicane back out.
They should bypass the first chicane at Monza at least on the the opening lap, which was what they did in 1972-76.
Frankly, I'd like to see the old 3.573-mile configuration back, and they could just add SAFER barriers outside of Curva Grande, the Lesmos, Viadone (think that was the name of it prior to the Ascari Chicane), and possibly Parabolica.
