chubby1973 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 The diggers used are a good idea, but always seem to be lethal when used in japan. Brundle took out a marshall in the same place in 94 due a digger being out. He missed that by mm's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RosscoC Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 The helicopter was able to fly but they chose to take him by ambulance. Is that a good sign? Brundle was saying if it's a head injury they might not want to use the helicopter due to the pressure. No one knows though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Future's Maroon Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Not seen or heard anything since watching the race (live) this morning, when the TV are not showing any replays of what happened to me makes it sound a really really bad one.

My Left Nut Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 seeing the damage being below the level of the top of his helmet it makes you realises that he would have taken a huge impact on his head. Horrible, horrible accident. When you look at the image it is looks like the left hand side of the car went under the tractor and ripped the roll hoop, air intake etc clean off and Bianchi sustained damage to the left side of his head. Very lucky it wasn't full on as I think he would not have survived that. The only options they have to prevent this again is use static cranes or deploy the safety car all the time. You could say the safety car should have been deployed as soon as Sutil went off. The FIA are inconsistent when it comes to safety cars. Just my view, all that matters is that he pulls through.

I think they could have deployed the safety car but it only happened 1 lap after the previous crash at the exact spot so could have been seen as a freak accident where all the worst circumstances happened at once, heavy rain suddenly making conditions a lot worse, a crash on a bad corner, a recovery vehicle trying to move the car. Lessons need to be learnt, from safety car deployment, to how quickly to stop a race for bad weather, to how best to recover cars. But at the moment the most important thing is that Bianchi pulls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he even has a chance of surviving that just shows how advanced strength of F1 cars are. 15 years ago, he wouldn't have any chance.

My Left Nut Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Reading the latest press release, Bianchi suiffered a diffuse axonal injury. Really serious injury http://en.wikipedia...._axonal_injury. It looks like the deceleration was the main cause, which for those who have seen the footage would explain a lot. Would be interesting to know if there was damage to the HANS device or if it was intact.
