The problem is not to go off track but to gain an advantage by doing so, what Romain did.
A study about the dramatic accident which happened at Le Mans in 1955 and which is still the worst disaster of the car racing history.

I have to disagree because the strategy for Grosjean was excellent, and for a while he was in positon to win the race, but the unexpected safety car destroyed the work.
Nice find
It seems to be so easy when you watch him, he's always smooth never giving the impression to push it hard.
I'm sure I can do it too
That's interesting but the main problem still remains: huge parts of the tyres are flying through the air and that's obviously very dangerous. Alonso was very lucky to be on the right side when it happened:

I don't remember other cases of pieces of tyres flying like that and even 20 years ago the tyres had a better behaviour in this case than current Pirellis do:

BBC F1 technical analyst Gary Anderson went down to Turn Four, close to where two of the blowouts occurred, and found that the ridge of the kerb was "razor sharp".
FIA race director Charlie Whiting, who admitted he considered stopping the race, said he had not experienced such a problem before.
"I can't remember anything like this," said Whiting. "Four catastrophic failures is a first. It was quite close to being red-flagged."

This is boring because it's a fake race. All of the pilots have been told to lift off for saving tyres. Hard tyres can't last more than 15 laps, WTH is that ? Non sense.
And I agree with Jacques Villeneuve who said on French TV: "F1 is becoming a pit stops competition with some racing laps in between."
