The Health and Safety Executive in the UK have concluded
their investigation into Maria De Villota’s accident at Duxford Aerodrome in
2012 and have found that none of the parties involved have any case to answer.
The Spaniard who was a test driver for the Marussia F1 Team
at the time was testing for the outfit when she crashed into a support team
truck.
De Villota lost her right in the accident however she had a
full recovery from the other injuries she suffered in the accident. At the time
the than Marussia F1 Team ruled out any fault with the car as the cause of the
accident.
The Manor Marussia F1 Team have refused to commented on the
findings of the of HSE investigation.
Sadly Maria De Villota died in October 2013 at the age of
33. The Marussia F1 Team entered administration last year but were purchased
earlier this year by Northern Irish businessman Stephen Fitzpatrick and entered
the 2015 Formula One season as the Manor Marussia F1 Team with drivers Will
Stevens and Robeto Merhi.
