Watch what you say, joe. You basically gave a green light to use runoff. Yes, it's a longer track, but strategic runoff allows for higher apex speed and overall lower lap times, especially T1 and the final sector. I'd say to keep two wheels on the red/white rumbles at all times, barring mistakes, or else risk a lengthy time penalty, say 40 sec added to finish. To prevent one from receiving a penalty for going off track, all one needs to do is let off the gas until you are back within track boundaries. If a pass was made off track, just give it back.
I agree, it's just like cutting chicanes. One should NOT make any gain whatsoever from it and slow down to re-dress if a gain has been made.
