Brawn, Domenicali join F1 accident panel to look into Bianchi crash

While Bianchi remains in a critical condition in hospital following his collision with a recovery vehicle at Suzuka, the FIA has pushed on in making clear that lessons must be learned from what happened.

FIA president Jean Todt said: "We will learn from what has happened, because we cannot be facing such a situation again."

In a bid to ensure the governing body's analysis is thorough, an Accident Panel has been created.

Its members include Brawn, Domenicali, Emerson Fittipaldi and Wurz.

Led by Peter Wright, who is president of the FIA's Safety Commission, the panel will spend the next few weeks going over in detail the events leading up to Bianchi's crash - as well as make recommendations to ensure that there can be no repeat in the future.

A statement issued by the FIA said: "The group will carry out a full review of the accident to gain a better understanding of what happened, and will propose new measures to reinforce safety at circuits, with recommendations to be made for the FIA President."

The group will begin its work this week and a full presentation of its findings is due to be presented to the FIA's World Motor Sport Council on December 3.

The full line-up of the Accident Panel is:
