I'm not joking. I am just saying they are going about it the wrong way. Risk management and damage control. Banning the one thing that gets them attention year round is not the solution. Making the track safer is, but it's not a safety sport to begin with. Cars are much faster in recent years and not much has changed for safety(or the track) in many years other than the hans system. The danger is what makes it exciting. It's called the green hell for a reason. RIP to the guy who died.
