Typhoonz 4th Gear October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 No matter what Jules will never recover to 100%. Similar for Massa's case. Massa's accident was freakish... Such a small part and nowhere to hit except his head... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommisan 4th Gear October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 Jules Bianchi's head injury is very severe. Bianchi's condition A diffuse axonal injury is one of the most common traumatic brain injuries, but can also be "one of the most devastating". Severity can vary over a wide range, but about 90% of survivors with severe diffuse axonal injury remain unconscious. The 10% that regain consciousness are often severely impaired. Such an injury is usually the consequence of the forces of a rapid acceleration or deceleration of the head and affects the nerves in the brain. http://en.espnf1.com/japan/motorsport/story/178509.html Diffuse axonal injury http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffuse_axonal_injury Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wt_know Supersonic October 8, 2014 Share October 8, 2014 (edited) will f1 consider to have cage for driver seat instead of exposed but it's the acceleration and impact that cannot be avoided in a crash and also the angle of the impact with cage, driver also got problem to escape if there is fire which is common Edited October 8, 2014 by Wt_know 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vega Turbocharged October 9, 2014 Author Share October 9, 2014 The air scoop can only protect if the car flip upside down. This case, the car is too low that it hit the lower part of the tracker where the driver's head is fully exposed. this is how Jules's crash captured by spectators. exactly what I imagined............ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-g5Smc0DfM 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoonz 4th Gear October 11, 2014 Share October 11, 2014 Shet!! very disturbing images....... during yesterday FP1, K. Mag's car hit a bird and it splatter all over his McLaren...... I came across this clip on youtube perhaps 2 years ago but the image of the marshall being sliced like that has not left my mind... Whenever I hear of a marshall or driver being injured, my mind flashes back to this clip... Safety was really something clearly not on the minds of the race organisers...

Wt_know Supersonic October 11, 2014 Share October 11, 2014 as long as both start from 1st row ... it does not matter very much actually the 1st corner will be critical and also the circuit provide many opportunities for overtaking pole position with a bad start will ruin the race Ham or Ros on pole? what is your guess? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
