As I said on a comment on this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19iZaAusT3E), It's a shame we need something tragic like the death of Jules Bianchi to improve driver safety, but I think this solves one problem and causes more. Driver visibility, will they be able to see clearly with the halo blocking the way? A car is upside down, the driver would need help to get out (Alonso 2016, he would have been trapped). And what about small peices of debris, like when a peice of Barrichello's car hit Massa in the head?

For reference:

Did you manage to move to new accommodation yet? Will you pay me £250 if I play chess with you and actually win this time?

It might look weird on photo. We don't know the the specs of the camera that took it because the lens can affect the angle and perception. From a human eye perspective it would be a lot better. Similar to how your nose is always in your field of you yet you don't see it.
