https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/may/19/formula-one-carlos-sainz-worried-health-drivers-bouncing-porpoisingEurope is always sucking hind tit when it comes to safety.
As I have posted before, we have entered a norm in which the old pleasing notion of 'becoming one with the car" is now exposed as serious drawback.
This is quite different from latter day drivers who bounced around in their seats in inefficiently-sprung cars on rough tracks.
Today's drivers are superbly strong and fit and healthy, but, as a Dakar winner once described modern rally driving, "Your body is like a milkshake." At the Austin track, a W Series driver suffered two vertebral compression fractures vertebrae [and they HEARD the crack] from simply running onto a sausage kerb and getting bounced.
People who were primed to scoff at Hamilton's and Russell's complaints may now listen to a Ferrari driver.

I never scoffed at either of them.

I cannot imagine how bad that is for the drivers. I know my 60-year-old
body couldn't possibly stand it.

I believe it was probably Henry Manley
writing fiction
for Road and Track magazine back in the 1970's was
expressing concerns of needing selective breeding
or surgical additions to handle the increasing
forces of then 'modern' F1 cars.-a i.e. detaching
retinas and separating kidneys...

I don't recall such, but if so it was probably one of the articles in
the Cyclops saga.
I have a vague recollection of that article as well...

COBOL could be here forever. Thus, Y2K+N problems are
likely to recur for all nonnegative integer values of N.

Dragsters are now registering minus-7G retarding when their chutes open, and several dragster drivers have suffered retina detachment, and many experience momentary tunnel vision. .
Years ago at the hard-braking Canadian GP, Martin Brundle described his tear ducts throwing fluid forwards onto the inside of his visor when he hit the brakes.
