    Anybody know what the bit (ringed in blue) attached to the left hand mirror of Massa’s Ferrari in the image is? Its from an on-board shot from this weekend.

    It’s a gun that shoots springs at the driver’s head. That way, when he ignores team orders, the garage can take him out of the running. It’s what happened to Massa at Hungary last year.

    True story.

    Not sure what it is, but i do know a several of the teams have those. Look at the footage of the RBR and McLaren, only it’s in the right mirror.

    Renault, Mercedes and FI don’t have this, juding from in car videos.
