I think there would be plenty of room to put a fairly deep tyre barrier against the Tertre Rouge armco where the row of trees start and contact is likely to be most severe. Of existing changes I always regretted the loss of the Dunlop curve and the sight of cars coming over the brow pretty well flat before plunging down to the old esses. After several drivers commented that things were feeling alarmingly light under the bridge it was perhaps very timely to modify things before something flew into the crowded fairground which was situated there at the time. Anyone who spectated at the cafe down the Mulsanne before the chicanes were added has some cherished memories.
