Yes , the mirrors are tiny , and often vibrate madly , but they do not restrict peripheral vision .
The halo is not in the way , either .

It is the bolsters , which were enlarged before the halo was introduced , that get in the way of seeing a rival .
I suppose what you are trying to say is the mirrors have limited peripheral view, which was my point. Even without the halo, peripheral vision was limited by the rollbar and cockpit shoulders. It is just the nature of the beast if you like. When those mirrors vibrate, l am sure the drivers can see very little through it.
