I'm seeing this trending with regards to the T1 barrier change, but I don't remember how different it is from before
Albert Fabrega on Twitter

“Ahora confirmado. Los pilotos no podran volver a pista a salida de T2 si van largos en entrada T1. Tendrán que dar la vuelta So, confirmed now. Drivers can not rejoin track after T2 if they go long on T1 entry. They will have to turn around. #f1 #CanadianGP”

Well that's...bizzare. How are they meant to get back in? Reversing seems weird.

Same as T1 at Monaco I guess!

What? This would be a crazy change. So cars are expected to drive through the grass?

I like this, it makes mistakes more costly, which I think is good.

OTOH the pit lane changes are a bummer if it makes pitting take more time. Cheap pit stops make for more diverse strategy.
