with all due respect, but who do you think you are or what position do you think you hold to decide about that? if you don't like a differing opinion, don't come to a forum - or just ignore it.adrianjordan wrote: ↑19 Mar 2018, 10:56It's called democracy and free speach.

if your/my boss decides, from tomorrow on, you are going to wear a helmet and goggles because there have been freak accidents where a brick fell on somebody's head, does it also get milked or poked endlessly despite it being a dead horse? it's that simple, really.
mathematically, chances are as good as non-existant that whilst on a construction site, a brick or other object can fall on your head. in reality, it happens more than once. not all the time, but it happens plenty enough. plenty enough times bricks fell inches short. plenty times they hit. and everytime, if somebody HAD protection, it would have resulted either in no injury or minimal injury, but at the very least, not life-threatening. do we also get people complaining 'the worker should decide it for themselves'. 'its aesthetically unpleasing'. 'the cap and goggles hinder sight and maneuvrability'. 'real men dont wear it'. 'if you can't handle the danger, you shouldnt be a construction worker'.? you just grab the cap/helmet, put on the goggles, and go do your thing. end of story. it saves your and other peoples lives form own or other peoples mistakes. no matter how relatively small the chances.
so honestly, why still the endless moaning. deal with it.
and as todt said. if something better or more advanced comes along, we'll take it. done.
if the halo was really an issue for driving an f1 car, we would have had plenty concerns, problems and issues with various testing during the 2017 season, and during post-season testing.
we would also have had concern during the pre-season testing.
we have had none, no driver at any point ever said 'i can't drive the car with the halo'. really, that's all that's to be concidered.
next week, first race of 2018. finally. may the moaning stop.
and democracy has nothing to do with it. the halo has not been democratically implemented, designed or appointed. neither is there any democracy for 'fans' as if their opinion matters in any way to the existance or non existance of the halo.
and free speech at that, means somebody also is allowed to give their critical opinion on endless repetitive arguments that have been discussed to death. so i repeat - dont put yourself into a position that you're not in. it goes both ways, you are free to stay out of the thread too, thank you.
