Okay I have a proposal, giant gluel traps. If the driver goes off track they get stuck in a glue trap. Not sticking enough to fully stop them but enough to slow them down and lose a second or two. Plus if they are made removable then they can be taken up for other racing events. Plus it will have the added side effect of keeping track invaders off the track by trapping them like flies.
Seriously this will keep happening until the divers have some immediate negative impact that affects the race.
That's basically what gravel pits do. The problem is large flat curbs that don't upset the car. Just put walls, we race in Baku and Monaco no problem there.
