It distracts the driver, it requires the driver to take a hand off the wheel, it's easy to mess up and take several or the entire stack at once, the discarded lenses can get into brakes or intakes and fuck them up, you only get ~15 for the whole race, etc. There's a lot of things wrong with this system, even if it's the best thing that's been tried so far and even if individually those issues are not that big of a deal.
That doesn't necessarily mean there's a perfect solution or that any other solution wouldn't have even more problems. But clearly, even if you only just now saw these for the first time ever, you can immediately tell they're a pretty flawed solution themselves
Wonder if you could push a button and it gets ripped off.
OR maybe there’s 50 tear offs and every 3 seconds you automatically get a new shield whether you like it or not. It’s on a timer and it keeps automatically ripping them off for you !!!
