From Halo to safety cage?
Formula 1 could rename the Halo ahead of its 2018 debut as some feel the current name is too tame. Next season all the Formula 1 cars will carry the cockpit protection device after the FIA declared it mandatory. But while introduction of cockpit protection has divided the paddock, so too apparently has the name. A senior F1 source told Motorsport.com: 'We're supposed to be a gladiatorial sport, and then we give the device an angelic name. 'We have various options [for a new name], but it could be something like 'safety cage'.' A new name will be discussed at the F1 Strategy Group meeting on November 7.
