Marussia driver James Bianchi's horrific crash that left him in a critical condition has prompted FIA to impose changes to ensure that such an accident cannot happen again.
Bianchi suffered severe head injuries in Sunday's Japanese Grand Prix when he crashed into a recovery vehicle. Marshals were waving double yellow caution flags, the most severe warning before a safety car is introduced.
Governing body the FIA is discussing steps to ensure that drivers slow down more than they currently do for such flags. The Formula One governing body's president Jean Todt said that they have to learn from what happened, The BBC reported.
Todt said that they would learn because they cannot be faced with such a situation again, adding that each life is very important.
FIA race director Charlie Whiting said that Marussia driver Bianchi like all the drivers, had slowed down, but some had reduced speed more than others. He refused to say by how much Bianchi had slowed.
Whiting said that there are some things to learn, adding that they want to engage with all the teams and drivers to ensure that they come up with good, sound and well-thought-through ideas.
