I agree that it is unusual that you see few people coming off here, but I personally have experienced uncomfortable moments at that second apex many times, and only avoided because I have yeilded or been pushed on to the grass. After having a general chat with a few drivers, they too feel its a corner that you certainly have to be careful of.

If you're in a quicker kart catching a back marker, when you see him swing out to the left before the second apex, the temptation is to undertake him on the inside and it is possible if you're carrying enough speed... but the risk is that he is unaware that you're there and he comes back in to clip the apex... and you!

Technically speaking, it is his line and he is entitled to stick to it as he has track position, unless of course you're side by side; then it becomes Schumacher & Barrichello of Hungary 2010!

Again, I don't know if this happened last night and I am equally not suggesting either way.
