The halo might have saved a driver from a serious injury for the first this weekend, as Formula 2 driver Tadasuke Makino was saved by the carbon fibre bar when he crashed at the Circuit de Catalunya!
Makino came into contact with fellow Honda development driver Nirei Fukuzumi at the Circuit de Catalunya, where the Formula 2 race took place only hours before the actual Grand Prix of Spain.
As you can see in the picture, as Makino's halo is clearly marked and slightly damaged after the incident, but both drivers walked away from the collision without any injuries.
Makino said that he didn't see his rival approaching him as everything was happening so fast.
