Well, this is where the confusion lies, with regard to the BRCA and insurance, and that it only covers incidents that happen within the confines of the track, not in the pits. Sometimes there is no one person who is at fault, and that is where we get 'freak incidents' from. I did hear what happened to you, and it is shocking. And not to sound patronising, if you sliced your hand open with a sharp blade, whilst fixing your car, you would not expect the insurance to pay out either. But in both incidents, you would expect your governing body to help you as much as possible with getting the right advice/help and to make strenuous efforts to get you back racing.
