Hey reddit! So i guess you have all seen the video of a F1 driver surviving in fire for that long. And that crash was hard to watch, but everybody in the comments were talking about some halo that saved that drivers life. What is that and how does it work?

Grojean probably would have been fine without the halo, but it is a carbon fibre ring that lops around above the drivers head
