The FIA Institute have started testing a "Roll-Hoop" for cockpit protection on the Formula 1 racing cars. This was supplied by the F1 Lotus Team. The Roll-Hoop might be fitted to the front of the car to form an impact-deflecting barrier, very much like a roll cage. The test results will then go to the Formula 1 Technical Working Group as part of its research into safety for single seater racing cars.
