Surely the easiest solution to the safety car problems arrising out of Bathurst is to allow teams to pit both cars at once?

My view is to close the pit exit until the end of the safety car train passes each lap. So you can pit under safety car but you will go a lap down (or 1/2 lap if you use 2 safety cars). No benefit to pit under a safety car.
Also impose a set speed limit once the safety car enters the track (eg: max 3rd gear) with anyone breaking this suffering a drive through. |

Surely your first paragraph won't work until the train has fully formed, and your second paragraph will probably prevent a train ever forming! Am I missing something? |

My idea is say the safety car is doing 60km/h, you can only go a maximum of 100 km/h until you catch up with the train.

Forget the train.Code 60 and virtual safety car are the solutions.If a full course SC is needed -hopefully very rarely- then your idea could be used but there needs to be a set speed not a maximum one.
