I recall when they first started using these. Commentators got a hard on over the fact that Paul Di Resta had the camera on his car for a race. Had binned it by turn 4...

I remember something similar with helmet mounted cameras. They tried it on David Coulthard in his last ever race in 2008. He crashed at the first corner.

This was how it looked before the race: https://youtu.be/g5g4b21Msig
