Pictures of F1 cranks I have seen show that they do not knife edge them ... thus the only benefit from doing this I see is the reduced mass.

And the damage to your engine caused by a crank hitting oil at high revs during cornering would be surely more than a few hp lost ... more like rod out the side???
