F1 to raise pitlane speed limit to encourage teams to do multi stop races (www.the-race.com)

With a higher pitlane speed limit, drivers would lose less time during a pitstop. This calculation could encourage teams to try a strategy with more stops during a race.

We could also add chicanes to pit straights! /s

There's no such thing as pure racing, so this I think is a good idea. Plenty of pit entrances and exits are quite long, we could have two speed limits also. The 60 in the garage area already seems too high to me however, we already see a lot of close releases imo. But purelli seem unwilling to actually go mad with the tyres to support race strategy other than 1 stops, so this could help with race strategies

I also like rally cross joker laps though, what a heathen
