I was only joking at the old ELF n Safety line really :)
They protect the head by impeding the vision, needs a bit more work for me, its looks don't bother me.
I also understand what you are saying but it is meant to be fast and exciting a "danger" sport, like boxing, which did have another death at the weekend for a brave fighter, will they end up with the hats on like amateurs ?
Will that spoil boxing for what it is ?
Still that is a question for another thread really.
Back to F1 the sport needs to be about speed, noise and overtaking, something that seemed to disappear over recent times, admittedly I don't watch it as much as I once did so not sure if that is quite still the case, I had read they had tried to make it more race orientated but no sky in our house anymore :(
