A side hit, hard but not seemingly harder than many others. Did his belt slip off the yoke? Is this an indication of lesser side impact protection you've mentioned? Other equipment (helmet, seat, belts) failure? None acknowledged in reports and they changed the corner the next year. Would like to see official report, but haven't found one. |
I sent an email to a buddy who is very up to date wtih these things to see if there was an official report that was released.
Here is a video of a HANS coming out from belts in a sled test
