PHOTOS: Red Bull designed 'Aeroscreen' confirmed for IndyCar

The halo won't be found here.

Red Bull and IndyCar have confirmed that the 'Aeroscreen' cockpit protection device will be introduced to the American series in 2020. Red Bull also tested their concept in Formula 1, but the halo was selected instead at the start of last year.

Christian Horner said: “Since the first prototypes were developed and demonstrated in 2016, the potential of Aeroscreen to improve the safety for drivers in the event of frontal impacts in the cockpit area of cars has been clear.

“This new partnership with IndyCar gives us at Red Bull Advanced Technologies the go-ahead to fully explore that potential, and to deliver a protection system that will help prevent serious injuries and potentially save lives in the US premier single-seater series.

“Over the coming months we’ll be working closely with IndyCar and its drivers to refine and perfect Aeroscreen and we’re looking forward to seeing the results on the cars in 2020.”
