Watching Champ Car these days it seems standard practice for the driver to be taken by car straight to the med centre - Michael's shunt was a good few years back now. I'd suspect it's the same for any other series who use the FIV method.
How long will it be before we get the same here? Sure it takes longer to get there sometimes, but the result is a highly trained team arriving with all the right equipment reasonably quickly, and while it's designed for ovals, that's the only way they do Champ Car anywhere in the world. Having said that, how many places in Britain are there where you can have a shunt on an average day and wait 30-40 secs for one out of breath marshal to turn up with a single extinguisher?
