Indeed. She looks good, but I wonder if the stress turned her hair white, or she's making a fashion statement?

Reminds me of the Senna Helmet  :( It would have been a different story if it was stuck a few inches above.

The safety equipment today is incredible. Still, it can only do so much. The picture also reminded me of Massa's helmet after being hit by the spring at the Hungaroring in 09.

that helmet is shredded, lucky to be alive.  At least she is still hot
