Thank heavens they are seriously investigating the poor medical

I don't think they could have got the medical car there any quicker
without red-flagging the race.
They could if they should take (another) queue from ChampCar/IRL: adopt a
professional "Safety Team". A team that (1) travels with the circus, and
(2) are stationed about the track in strategic location.
In the event of a major shunt, the crew heads to the scene as soon as it
is reported, even before the SC is called and the medical car can roll.
To be honest; I've always been surprised that the FIA, with all the
safety rules in place, they appear to have the worse plans in place for
driver safety _after_ an incident.
Just my 2-cents...
American Open Wheel racing does have that precious truth figured out,
thankfully.
How many fatalities have there been in top level US open wheel racing since
May 1994? I know there's been none in F1 and at least 4 in OW..without
looking. I suspect there's been a lot more serious injuries too..
