I believe it's not only useless, but also it's seems unconfortable for both driver and codriver. The net would go all over you in a hard or fast turn.
It seems to have more cons than pros.

The crazy thing about the netting is that, as I understand it, on the Friday before Monte, the FIA withdrew the proposed rule... so the teams had installed the "safety feature" but it was ultimately not required.

Aren't the seat belts supposed to hold the crew in their seats and therefore stop them from hitting each other in an accident? If the accident was so severe that the seats broke and they started tumbling around the cockpit, I think that hitting each other would be the least of their worries.

When a car rolls and stop over the side, i can se a net as somehing to put things more dificult to leave the car fast.
Three gears are enough!
Looks like Sordo is testing there as well.
