Large run offs seem to have fallen out of fashion, hence Singapore, Baku and all the other new street circuits with very fast corners and absolutely no run off. Compared to those newish tracks the Barcelona track looks very safe to my untrained eyes, last corner included.
The problem with the last corner is the angle you'll hit the barrier if you go off at speed through the corner.

As happened to Mario Haberfeld etc.
