The medical team polishes its routines

At each round of the FIA World Endurance Championship, the medical team carries out two extraction exercises, one with a prototype and the other with a GT car, in order to be perfectly up to speed should an accident occur.

Yesterday, it was the turn of the No.41 Greaves Motorsport Zytek-Nissan to take part in the exercise, under the watchful eyes of Alain Chantegret (back to camera, on the right), the FIA World Endurance Championship Medical Delegate.  Every move is repeated and timed until it becomes automatic, guaranteeing the best possible result in case of any incident.
