Long Wheel Base Posted November 30, 2020 Share Grosjean has been making a few errors for a while now, this one just had serious consequences. He is so damn lucky that, A, the cars are safer than volvos, B, he was still conscious enough to get out of there and C(this is the most NB one) there was a saffa following him and brave enough o help him out the fire. The front part of that car was literally melted in with the barrier after the fire. You see how they had to remove the barrier and cockpit all in one piece and how quickly and efficiently did those guys get that sorted. pdt33 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some would say the Saffa was Hasstig to get the race restarted too...... Long Wheel Base and Vetplant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJacques Posted November 30, 2020 Share I wonder if this would work for F1? Even though they say it's impact absorbing somehow the bouncing off this kind of barrier seems worse due to rapid changes in direction / g-force. A more traditional impact absorbing barrier that doesn't bounce you back may be better for direct head on collisions. Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Wheel Base Posted November 30, 2020 Share I saw that Jules Bianchi's Mom posted a message saying she is so glad that the halo, which was introduced due to her sons death, has saved a life. That must have been an emotional message for her. ADJ, Steven Knoetze (sk27), Warthog whisperer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Wheel Base Posted November 30, 2020 Share HAAS tweeted a video of Grosjean in hospital. He has some burns on the back of his hands and they wrapped up like boxing gloves but otherwise the oke is fine. He will probably go home today.

Long Wheel Base Posted December 1, 2020 Share Grosjean... “Here, hold my beer”.....If I was Grosjean, this would be my profile picture, phone background, pc background, flip I would even have it "blown up", framed and hang it in my lounge.
