I think instead of monitoring track limits, they should just put up massive curbs / gravel / grass exactly where the car would be if it went 1cm past track limits. It would stop people taking the piss, stop the stupid penalties, and also make things more exciting when someone did go to far with them then disadvantaged for a straight etc.
Well the issue here might be that this creates a new safety issue as more or less seen when Hamilton and verstappen stacked on each other. I don’t know why they are enforcing these limits. If it’s enforced for nobody there is no unfair advantage to be gained
Or simply use the curb and not the white line as a track limit. The white line is impossible to see from the drivers perspective. At least they can feel the curb.

I don’t think grass or gravel will cause safety issue in the event of an accident. Kerbs yes.

I think the curbs should be replaced with spike strips. That would incentivize the drivers to stay on the track.
