Martin Brundle mentioned that the regulations are 107 pages and no where in there is a mention of common sense or fair play. The rules state if those parts are replaced, a penalty is incurred. The rules need to be carefully updated.

Yeah, like I said, tough call and you make a great example although a high curb could be attributed more so to driver error. Don't need another 107 pages delininating what is facility fault and what is not.
There's the other things that can happen too like hitting a part that came off another car or hitting an animal. I think some brake rotors have hit NASCAR many times. Cristiano da Matta got hit by a deer. Out for 2 seasons and his comeback was a failure. Now that's crappy deal.
