The Webber Koba situation would've been very clear, the Vettel/Button situ at Hockenheim would be clear. Aside from speed bumps like at the Monza chicane's (which are a huge flip in waiting on their own) there isn't any geographical solutions I can see. Artificial grass, well Vettel was driven onto that at Hockenheim and still cleared Button.
I agree with you for chicanes that come after a 300+ braking zone, but they won't flip at the exit of slow turns/hairpins and that's where the battles take place (except the occasional Vettel/Alonso insanity, lol).
And again, real grass, or anything that has much less grip than asphalt. Given that asphalt is the most grippy material on earth, it can't be
that hard to find, does it? Hockenheim obviously chose the wrong material.
Also agree on the rule proposal, but it would be easier to kill the situation completely by not designing tracks with faster lines outside the white lines then following up with circumvoluted rules. It's completely ridiculous. This has never been an issue on real racetracks (understand, pre-2002)
