Jackie Stewart was lambasted in the 60s when he said we need seat belts in race cars
it was that much earlier that proper crash helmets where worn replacing leather flying hats
what i am opposed to is the HANS device becoming mandatory
they are expensive and we have survived for 50 years without them cars are way way safer now then ever before between rollcage shape and materials
Fire systems seat belts race suits helmets
space frame design/construction
carbon fibre chassis etc
let it be your choice not mandatory
the most dangerous part of motor racing is driving to n from the meeting or telling "her in doors"
what it REALLY costs to go racing !
