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.

Gravel seems like a good option, not sure how it would affect other motorsports though.

I would prefer gravel too, i think it's very dangerous for the bikes though which sucks for tracks like Austria which are hosting Moto GP and F1.

Maybe they should simply get screens in the cars or helmets that show them the front tire position. I think it's also weird af that they can't automate the detecting and have to have a staff of people just looking at track limits.
