I am sorry but tracks can be made safer, Mc Nish hit the barrier a some 20 metres to the side of one of the fastest corners in the world. It was damn lucky that he survived and if you noticed there was a grandstand just beyond the bank where the car finished up. F1 was lucky as that could have had far graver consequences. A corner such as that should have far wider run off arears to slow a car down. The Corner can stay the same but give a car a chance to slow down if it goes off, before it hits the barrier.
