Just make sure you only get lost on the Northern hemisphere Paul, that way the coriolis effect compensates for the anti-clockwise tendency Smile MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!

Scotland 2007 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Java Black

I too have to agree with Martin. These incidents are fortunately rare and most of the time there are minimal injuries, in this case it seems very unlucky, 6" either way and he could have walked away.

As a rally marshal we have seen too many incidents in recent years where safety has been compromised and injuries or worse have occurred, but whether I go to the local Karting track or am on a rally stage Safety is always paramount 56 TDV8 Vogue SE

Switzerland 2007 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Stornoway Grey

Here's what Sergio Perez said about it, which pretty much confirms Martin's opinion.

Quote:
"In the future when there is a tractor coming up to pick up the car, we need a safety car, no matter what the conditions," he said.

"There is always a risk, even if it is dry, because you expose the marshals and a lot of people. You can have people running out of brakes."

Perez also felt that double waved yellow caution flags were not enough to ensure the racing cars were slowing down sufficiently.

"Those situations are very difficult," he said. "You expect the tractor to come quickly but in my opinion yellow flags were not enough to clear up the accident because of the situation on the track at that moment."

He said that drivers slowed down as little as possible even for double yellow flags.

"You know you have to show a lift of the throttle to the FIA," Perez said.

"But if we are honest we know we want to lift as little as possible and go as fast as possible.

Bianchi’s father Philippe. Very, very sad.

Quote:
“The situation is desperate. Every time the telephone goes we know it could be the hospital to tell us Jules is dead.

“He will not give up, I’m sure of that. I can see it. I believe it.”

“I speak to him. I know he can hear me.

“His doctors have told us this is already a miracle, no one has ever survived such a serious accident. But Jules won’t give up.

“His trainer Andrea [Ferrari] says if there is one person who can make it happen, with his will, it’s Jules.”
