HANS device
The HANS device (Head And Neck Support device) is a safety item compulsory in many car racing sports. Primarily made of carbon-fiber, the device is something of a U-shape, the back of the U set behind the back of the neck and the two arms laying flat along the top of the chest over the pectoral muscles; the device in general supported by the shoulders.
