Rockinghams Kerbs

[Cynic]

According to last weeks MN, formula three have cancelled their winter series because Rockingham have refused to modify (read remove)the kerbs on the chicane inside of turn 1 on the oval. Well I don't know how everybody else feels, but I'm with Rockingham on this one. Having watched various classes race there, it's obvious that if the kerbs are lowered, a formula three car could go through there almost flat out, which is the exact opposite reason the kerbs are there in the first place. The f3 bosses complain the cars are being damaged. Well there's an easy solution - keep off them! You aren't allowed to drive over the pavement when you turn the corner on the high street, why should it be any different on a racetrack? If the current crop of drivers can't tell the difference between a kerb (generally red and white), and the track (generally black), then perhaps the teams should look for some that can.
