I spent the weekend in Modena, not for any sort of Ferrari pilgrimage, but instead on an eating adventure for my mothers birthday. We flew into Bologna airport, a place I last went through in 2014 when heading to Imola for the 20th anniversary commemoration of Ayrton Senna.As I passed through Bologna this time, it was the one-year anniversary of the death of Jules Bianchi.The death of Senna is often pointed to as one of the key turning points in the history of F1s focus on safety. Efforts to improve safety for drivers, circuit officials, and attendant fans had been ongoing in spurts since Sir Jackie Stewart first took a stand in the 1960s, leading to dramatically improved trackside medical care and the application of safety standards to circuit design, but that black weekend in Imola that saw both Senna and Roland Ratzenberger lose their lives marked the last F1 driver fatalities for 20 years.Dramatic accidents such as Robert Kubicas Montreal crash, Mark Webber performing an aerial somersault over Heikki Kovalainen, or Jarno Trulli landing on top of Karun Chandhok in Monaco, all saw the drivers involved walk away with little more than bruising or minor injuries. Safety-related research was applied to the design of the cars, and became an ever more vital part of the rulebook.Each of the aforementioned crashes had its own role to play in the development of safety, as indeed have all of the other incidents weve seen on track. Sebastien Buemis double suspension failure in practice for the 2010 Chinese Grand Prix led to the introduction of a second wheel tether for the 2011 season. Felipe Massas head injury in Budapest 2009 led to advances in helmet design, with the addition of a Zylon visor strip to help spread the energy absorption from any impact.In the 22 months since Jules crashed during the rain-soaked 2014 Japanese Grand Prix, considerable research has been underway to try and improve cockpit protection for the drivers, and the result (as seen this season) has been the development of both the Halo and the Aeroscreen, both of which have been tested on track with the aim of introducing one of the devices in 2017 if possible.The Halo concept has been divisive, welcomed by some drivers and disliked by others, and it is expected that any form of cockpit protection is likely to be delayed until 2018 to allow for further testing to take place.Fernando Alonsos dramatic crash at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, from which the Spanish racer was lucky to emerge largely unscathed when the force of the impact is taken into account, raised its own questions about the efficacy of the Halo, with former F1 driver and Sky pundit Johnny Herbert asking: Would that halo have caused more problems of getting out of the car? Probably. It will be thought about properly for next year.The more immediate safety impact to result from Bianchis heavy crash under yellow flags in Suzuka was the introduction of the Virtual Safety Car for the 2015 season, used when double waved yellow flags are needed on any section of track and competitors or officials may be in danger, but the circumstances are not such as to warrant use of the safety car itself.The 2016 technical regulations included their own modifications to cockpit design for improved safety, with the head protection structures now 20mm higher than in 2015, and required to resist a compression load of 50N per 30 seconds. In order to improve analysis of any accidents, drivers must now wear in-ear accelerometers during every session of a race weekend and all multi-team tests (i.e. not straight-line aero testing or filming days when they alone are on track). Every car is equipped with a high-speed camera.Formula One is not resting on its laurels when it comes to future safety developments, with the FIA now actively pushing for improved biometric monitoring of their drivers. Speaking to AUTO earlier this year, FIA Safety Delegate Laurent Mekies said: The next step is biometrics - gathering data from drivers such as heart rate, body heat and even sweat levels. I hope that we will be able to put something on a driver before the end of the season, at least in a test.You could imagine a million things tomorrow - you could imagine us trying to estimate the loads on the actual upper body of the drivers through the safety belts, for instance, he added. It is something that will never stop as much as safety research will never stop and we will continue to push the boundaries to gain a deeper understanding. Cheap Golden State Warriors Jerseys .

Cheap Swingman Warriors Jerseys .Y. - Rob Manfred was promoted Monday to Major League Baseballs chief operating officer, which may make him a candidate to succeed Bud Selig as commissioner. Week 4 will go down as a weird one for fantasy players. Quarterbacks Ben Roethlisberger and Matt Ryan combined for 803 passing yards and nine touchdowns. Julio Jones became just the sixth player in NFL history to have 300 receiving yards in a game. LeVeon Bell -- one of the leagues most talented running backs -- returned from suspension and lined up in several positions, including wide receiver and tight end, on his way to 178 total yards.On the down side, DeAndre Hopkins, a consensus first-round fantasy pick this season, managed just one catch for 4 yards. Latavius Murray gained 24 total yards. And Golden Tate -- expected to be Detroits top pass-catcher this season -- snagged one reception for one yard, putting him at 95 total receiving yards over the first four games.And, of course, there were injuries.INJURY REPORTWhile injuries didnt wreak as much havoc in Week 4, there were still significant names dealing with issues. Quarterbacks Cam Newton and Carson Palmer are now in the leagues concussion protocol. Palmer has a Thursday night game this week, so his owners should prepare themselves to start a replacement, as the window for clearance may be too short.Trevor Siemien suffered a shoulder injury to his non-throwing arm; the extent of the injury is unlclear. If a desperate fantasy player is parsing though the backups affected by quarterback injuries, Denvers Paxton Lynch should produce the most fantasy value if thrust into a starting role.Lions running back Dwayne Washington was poised for a solid fantasy week against the Bears, but he left Sundays game in the first half with an ankle injury and could miss time going forward.Bears receiver Kevin White quietly racked up 23 targets over the last two weeks, resulting in 117 total yards on 12 receptions. Both games came with new starter Brian Hoyer under center, making White a waiver wire target. Unfortunately, he injured his ankle in the third quarter and did not return, which could crush momentum if he misses significant time.THE RETURN OF JIMMY GRAHAMSeattles Jimmy Graham began the season with just 53 yards on fourr receptions over the first two games.dddddddddddd But the tight end has broken out the last two weeks: six passes for 100 yards and a touchdown in Week 3 and six receptions on eight targets for 113 yards in Week 4.Russell Wilsons leg injuries may be forcing him to run less and pass more, meaning Graham has become a bigger part of the passing game almost by default. Seattle has a bye in Week 5, but as long as Wilson is affected by injury, Graham should continue to produce.HOUSTON, WE HAVE AN OFFENSEBill OBrien took over play-calling duties for the Texans in Week 4 and the result was Brock Osweilers best game yet as Houstons starter (254 yards, two touchdowns). Will Fuller (seven receptions, 81 yards, one touchdown) got back on track after a down week, and Lamar Miller contributed 108 total yards.Fantasy owners stressing over DeAndre Hopkins lackluster performance need to look no farther than Julio Jones in Week 4. Jones was coming off a one-catch, 16-yard performance in Week 3 and flirted with an NFL single-game record six days later. Despite having a tough matchup against the Vikings in Week 5, fantasy owners should not expect Hopkins to wallow in one-catch depth again this season.JEREMY KERLEY: STASH CANDIDATE49ers wide receiver Jeremy Kerley caught six passes on nine targets for 88 yards and a touchdown against the Cowboys Sunday. He has averaged eight targets per game.So far this season, Kerley (owned in 3.5 percent of ESPN leagues) has faced some of the leagues top defenses (the Rams, Panthers, and Seahawks) and is staring down two more (the Cardinals and Bills) in his next two games, but his schedule gets significantly easier in the middle of the year. Hes an excellent bench stash option for a team in need of a wide receiver.WEEK 5 BYESThe Jaguars, Saints, Chiefs, and Seahawks are all on by next week.
