Default Carbon fiber can so break!

Watch formula one auto racing- when there's a shunt , there's CF shards
thrown all over hell and gone. Why they don't require a kevlar wrap to
contain the crap is beyond me though I suspect that the shedding of parts is
their way of shedding energy at the same time. BTW the f-1 season starts
this week. Despite the past several seasons being about as exciting as
watching kudzu grow, I'm still watching...sigh. Pat
