But what if one of those big mounts in the front screen came loose in a crash, probably weigh 10 times more than the small one.
When i look at the pics of Lefebvre's car now it maybe even did come loose, any info on that?
So in my opinion putting a camera in the middle of the car is safer.Last edited by SubaruNorway; 10th September 2016 at 13:55.

In one of his question and answer sessions earlier this year Hayden explained the simple reason as to why we can no longer see onboard through the screen shots taken from a camera mounted behind the seats like we used to.
Basically the current car is quite restricted in the cockpit size and the current seats with all there inbuilt safety features take up pretty much the full width of the cockpit and as a result you cannot get a shot through the screen.
It is as simple as that.
With the 2017 car there is more interior width available and once again we should be able to get to good old through the screen shots that everyone enjoys so much.

If they want to put a gopro between two seats they are able to do it, they can put pressure on the FIA or find some kind of agreement and with the best engineers in the world they will find a space for a 10cmx10cm camera.
The fact is that they don't care too much and don't understand why it is important.Last edited by AL14; 11th September 2016 at 09:33.

The promoter of our championship normally keeps placing the camera behind the crew even with modern cars but as I said last year on barum FIA stewards forced them to move nearly all.
But it seems that this year it was more relaxed. I checked the onboards both from ERC and national field and far majority of them is with the camera behind the crew (including top drivers).Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump
