New Motor Verso article: F1 Cockpit Halos - Creating More Problems?

Cockpit protection is an issue that has lingered over F1 for some years. And often for very good reasons; with these doing something to protect the driver's head - be it with some kind of structure or else a full canopy - has in safety terms felt on occasion a lot like F1's final frontier.

It seems also that finally additional cockpit protection has become inevitable for F1 cars, with it reported that the FIA has presented its plans for a cockpit 'halo' to the teams.

But for Motor Verso I wonder the extent that the halo option will add to the protection of drivers, and perhaps even whether it will create a few new problems.
