Pedro was very lucky indeed. A month eralier Wouter Van Eeuwijk crashed at the same way and is paralyzed since then.

@sonntagsfahrerfan12 back in these days, i think so too. without the HANS he could slipped deeper into the car, so he saved his head.

@sonntagsfahrerfan12 He's talking sense. But the roll-bars are much stronger these days. But I think that the HANS has saved a lot.
