Carbon composites, high energy impact absorbtion at work

We have tried to provide Youtube films on the Kubica crash before, but for reasons unknown to us they were removed from the youtube site. This version also shows a computer graphic of the crash. In the film you will see highlighted the critical carbon fibre elements that absorbed the colossal levels of energy that were involved in this impact.
This amazing film is a tribute to all those people who work in the field of engineering and the development of carbon composites. Kubica not only survived this 75g crash, but was also able to meet the challenges of racing again two weeks later!
