Bianchi's Crash Video

What about the guy pinched in between the loader and the barrier wall?

Just found this slomo video. It looks like the loader never impacted the wall so he may be unhurt.

 

It also looks like Jules got his head down some what and maybe missed the counter weight on the loader. I think that if his helmet had hit the weight it wouldn't appear to be intact as he passed the loader.

 

 

According to Sutil, the Frenchman hit the crane side on and he added: "The yellow flags were out after I aquaplaned at the corner as the rain got more and more and one lap later with waved yellow flags Jules came around and had the same spin there. It was more or less the same crash, but just the outcome was a bit different."

 

"The car [crane] came out to rescue my car and then it all happened."

It will be interesting to what see what the FIA do. What changes in requirements will come out of this unfortunate set of circumstances. I worked corners for 20 years with the SCCA and there have been many changes in how races are managed with respect to safety.

I hope for the best for Jules and his family in this difficult time.
