Formula 1: They want to remove the “sausage curbs” because it burdens the drivers

Intense reactions erupt in Formula 1 lately. In particular, drivers want to suggest their removal «sausage kerbs». The reason is that they burden the waist of every driver, when he steps on them with great speed, while they are also dangerous for the physical integrity, since lately there have been some accidents.

The issue is that we have to remove these “sausage curbs” from the slopes, because we had two unnecessary injuries. I would rather have endless discussions about track limits that once you are unhappy and sometimes you are happy. I believe that we can find solutions. “Our main concern is to find solutions to back injuries, with one being to ban the curbs that cause it.”, mentioned on this issue o Sebastian Vettel.

“It’s something that Formula 1 and the FIA ​​have to solve globally, because we saw another horrific accident at Formula Regional in Monza. It’s something we as GPDA are pushing hard for. I do not know the exact injuries that the drivers had, but it is inadmissible to have back injuries. We want to live in a perfect world, but that cannot happen. Curbs have been installed to prevent violation of the track limits, but if the cost is driver injuries, then this should be stopped. There must be a solution, not a compromise on this. “, said ο George Russell.

For those who do not know what they are «sausage kerbs», are these small ramps, if we can call them that, on the sides of the track. These curbs are there to discourage drivers from gaining speed and staying within the limits of the track.
