Anyone seen anything more on this.

It looks like improved cockpit protection, but it looks like half measures. I could be wrong, but there doesn't appear to be any crash aborbing structures.

The FIA have been asleep at the wheel for along time, as far as WRC safety is concerned, I hope they wake up soon.

The FIA Institute CLOSED CAR RESEARCH GROUP is supposed to be working improving WRC safety, but are wheels turning at all?
