Not overtaking and outbraking yourself. That was down to driver errors.

Yup, but the same errors wouldn't have been penalised so heavily at, for example, Turkey where there are acres of run-off which brings me back to my point that street circuits are more difficult to pass on because they don't generally have the massive run-off areas that allow greater risks to be taken without possible race ending incidents.

So IMHO racers do not have a psychological fear of street circuits. They simply have the knowledge that misjudging a pass can be more costly than elsewhere.
