RE: Formula 1 - Charlemagne - 06-10-2014 14:01 The latest update on Bianchi is "Critic but stable" RE: Formula 1 - Rammyrascal - 06-10-2014 15:47 Sky sports f1 are showing a full re-run of the race from 17:15 this afternoon RE: Formula 1 - Tumble_Drier - 06-10-2014 16:30 (06-10-2014 14:01 )Charlemagne Wrote: The latest update on Bianchi is "Critic but stable" After seeing an amateur video of the crash it's a miracle he's still alive. RE: Formula 1 - HannahsPet - 06-10-2014 20:13 Yeah just seen the Video on Mail online he hits the tractor in the back at what looks like Full speed he didnt stand a chance must have been some force the back of the tractor lifted up quite a height RE: Formula 1 - biggles - 06-10-2014 20:43 (06-10-2014 20:13 )HannahsPet Wrote: Yeah just seen the Video on Mail online he hits the tractor in the back at what looks like Full speed he didnt stand a chance must have been some force the back of the tractor lifted up quite a height Just watched as on tv you cant even see where the car is - unfortunate that a F1 car is a wedge shape so it just ploughs underneath it, a normal car or saloon racing car would have hit it and bounced off. Just hope the guy pulls through.

I can see a change of regulations here, maybe some sort of protection on recovery vehicles RE: Formula 1 - bytor - 06-10-2014 22:03 The fact that the impact shoves the tractor unit into the air speaks volumes. That he survived the crash at all is a miracle. I hope he pulls through and goes on to make a full recovery. RE: Formula 1 - Tumble_Drier - 06-10-2014 23:01 There's no need for any "protection" on recovery vehicles, just slow the cars down PROPERLY when Recovery & Marshals are required to come out from behind the barriers. The Code 60 system that has been introduced into Sports Car racing in the last few years is perfect for this. Simply run a section of the track before the incident under double waved yellows and slow the cars to 60KPH. Anyone exceeding this gets a hefty penalty. They were bloody lucky half a dozen Marshals were not killed on Sunday and they don't get a penny for being there.

Wasn't safety car deployed at the time? I know the medical car was also out at the same time. And recall James Allen saying that to see both the safety car & medical car out at the same time WAS unusual. I wonder how Bianchi came off that the point Sutil was I don't even recall BBC showing the incident of Sutil's crash in race at the time and if they did I missed it!! I'm probably right to say for him to come off at the same point where Sutil was like a brake failure or lock. I guess the tractor what some damage too. Just hope any progress reports are good news for Bianchi RE: Formula 1 - The Silent Majority - 07-10-2014 08:07 (06-10-2014 23:01 )Tumble_Drier Wrote: There's no need for any "protection" on recovery vehicles, just slow the cars down PROPERLY when Recovery & Marshals are required to come out from behind the barriers. 60kph wouldn't be nearly slow enough for that sort of impact. The rear 'bumper' on the machine, where the car hit, is a solid counter-weight for the lifting boom on the front. It could easily weigh 2 tonnes on its own. To my mind, it was a very bad call by the marshals to put that recovery vehicle out there at all, in those conditions, in direct line of fire, on a corner where one car had already aquaplaned off. Once Sutil was safe his car should have been left there and Bianchi would probably have walked away from his crash, even if he hit Sutils car instead of the tyres. |
