It's still just a nuisance for them, gravel would stop it altogether. And making people pay for their mistakes rather than loose 2 seconds.
If it really needs to be asphalt, Paul Ricard probably has the most effective 'punishers' in that area. Deeper in the runoffs though
The first and second Mulsanne chicanes especially look just SAD today with all the extended tarmac. They've done a LOT of F1-style runoffing in the past couple of years without people really taking too much of a notice. It was really eye catching especially last year. It's not yet FIA Grade 1 levels thankfully, but slowly getting there
Well at least they are still installing gravel somewhere, like recent Arnage change and now this
