Massa's condition is improving

Hey All,

I saw this this AM on CNN - talk about bad luck - a spring from a car (his teammate?) in front hitting his helmet hard enough to apparently fracture his skull... hitting the wall was probably not that bad compared to the spring - man - I hope he recovers well.

Being somewhat facetious maybe F1 needs to smarten up - put fenders on and windshields in front call themselves NASCAR Europe and go on racing!

Don't know about fenders ed. They can't get those wheel fairing things on without braking a wheel off....(Alonso).

The spring was from Rubens (Brawn GP).
Here is a video which shows everything: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MgVjMkKx5U&fmt=22

He was unconscious after he was hit by the spring and he was standing on the throttle and brake.
There will be always a risk, no matter what they do and something like that is very unlikely. It's only scary that it happened one week after the tragical death of Surtees.
