they wont show a replay in case the driver died.

I don't recall that ever stopping them before... and if they've shown it online that wouldn't tally, surely the policy would be consistent across all mediums?

hmm says he got hit on head before he hit barrier

French TV are reporting that whatever hit him knocked him unconscious and thats why he went strait on.

They showed a replay on french tv and something hit his helmet.

Any idea what? Did he respond after the impact or just continued straight into the barrier?

I don't just mean the last death but the last big crash like they mention with Kovi, that could have been serious but they still showed that didn't they?

I doubt that, the tyre marks look like he was trying to brake. I suspect either rear brake failure or throttle stuck open

French TV are saying a spring, about 10cm in length.

HELICOPTER, HMMM

Kenai · 25 Jul 2009 at 13:59

Marshalls on track looking for debris? :/

Stormrider · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:00

Balb0wa · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:00

fires up me german sat ! dam bbc

It's a conspiracy I tell you!

bee · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:01

was a nasty impact, the top of the barrier came forward and his head moved forward , almost headbutted it

Stormrider · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:01

ah back.
Nose of the Ferrari looks fairly well intact.

Pigeon_Killer · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:01

Nose doesn't look too badly damaged. Would've preferred his legs to be trapped rather than him being unconscious due to a head injury.

Balb0wa · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:01

ive put german RTL on, see if they show anything

Mr Jack · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:03

Typical Eddie, talking over DC having far more idea.

knip · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:04

I have pics, just no sodding commentary! Hello everyone from sunny Mexico by the way, someone give me news on Massa when you get it please! Just saw footage of something large (like coke can sized) flying at his head.

Stormrider · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:04

Hmm, rubens missing bits off the back of his car and massa suspected of being hit by something.

Burned_Alive · 25 Jul 2009 at 14:05

Surely its the missing piece of suspension off the back of barichello's brawn?

EDIT: As above
