It's not safe for the drivers with crashes like this and Campos before prime example of what can go wrong. It also provides little protection for the marshals with no catch fencing, and it's amazing none of the marshals were injured in that incident. I'm glad F1 is leaving this track next season, and hopefully GP2 will follow suit. This is one thing that particularly disturbs me about Magny-Cours, the walls are terribly small.

It takes incidents like that and the Kubica one to realise just how quick these cars are going and the energy involved. Lucky boy, but as anyone who saw him in F3 will testify a big one like that has been coming for a long, long time Just seen the Viso crash.

I've never seen anything like that before ... he is one very lucky boy! As for the start - well, glad to see Glock's driving has improved leaps and bounds since he left the F1 scene ...

As for the start – well, glad to see Glock’s driving has improved leaps and bounds since he left the F1 scene …

It was like a snowboard grind at 100+mph! The first crash is the easily most rediculous thing I’ve ever seen two racing professionals do; the second was a testament to the safety of modern racing.

On the other crash, I can't believe Ernesto Viso only suffered a concussion after that. Barrel Rolling, bringing down an advertising board, going the other side of the concrete barrier, and even piercing a fire extinguisher. It just shows the outstanding safety of modern single seaters.
