Max Chilton can thank the FIA’s latest safety standards after returning home uninjured from the German grand prix.<\/p>\n

That is the claim of the German-language Speed Week, who reported that F1 race director Charlie Whiting took possession of the Marussia rookie’s damaged Arai helmet after the weekend’s action at the Nurburgring.<\/p>\n

It is reported that, following a marshal’s death in Canada and the injuries to the FOM cameraman in Germany, Chilton was lucky to escape without an injury last weekend.<\/p>\n

Whiting will reportedly send the British driver’s helmet to be analysed by the FIA Institute, after debris flicked up by another car – probably a pebble – struck the new bullet-proof Zylon strip that runs above the drivers’ visor.<\/p>\n

The Zylon strip was introduced following the near-fatal injuries to Felipe Massa in 2009, when the Brazilian was struck on the face with a spring in Hungary.<\/p>\n
