Marussia declares their F1 car safe to race
« on: July 17, 2012, 09:11:39 AM »

No car issues found in team's de Villota crash investigation.

Unless the Health and Safety Executive find any car fault, when they finish their own investigation, I guess we can expect changes to the way test days are conducted on the ground, to minimise the risk of human error in the future.

The real question is why was a truck parked in the line of travel with the lift gate at cockpit level?

Our local news had video footage but I only ever saw it on the actual day.
The car had obviously finished the high speed run and came into the make-shift pit area. She was going very slowly but then accelerated past the team and straight into the truck. It was very bad quality video (possibly mobile phone) but the engine note sounded like it was on the pit lane limiter then it accelerated.
I wondered at the time if Maria had pushed a 'wrong button'
