And what about closed cockpits? It would totally ruin the whole sport. Not to mention there is no material out there that would have withstood those forces pressed upon Bianchi. It would just smash up anyway.
I think the fact that there has been no fatality since Senna is to blame here partially. Drivers deluded themselves into a sense of invincibility. They already ignored double waved yellow at Hockenheim (The Sutil shunt). They did again in Suzuka. Just this time Jules paid the ultimate price...
