Maria de Villota the Marussia F1 test driver was involved in a horrible testing crash yesterday in which she hit the back of one of the team's transporter trucks.
Her injuries were described and life-threatening at the time and news has just been released today that she has lost her right eye. This is truly devastating and I would like to say my thoughts are with her and her family at this time.
As the safety of F1 and drivers is always at the front of everyone's mind who's involved, it could be possible that we will see fighter-jet still cockpits on F1 cars sooner than later to continue the fight for a safer sport.
