This is the first crash of it's type since the late 80's/early 90's. That's a pretty good safety record.Cars are not meant to hit the barrier like that and tbh it was the way Grosjean went across Kyvat and then got clipped that caused him to hit the barrier at an angle he shouldn't have. Whether he had a puncture or was going for the gap is unclear, but it's not often you're going to get a car go across another at that angle. Sometimes, not matter how safe you make it, there is always still that tiny chance it can happen.</blockquote>
