FIA Impact Data Recorder

The FIA has developed an affordable Impact Data Recorder (IDR) designed for easy installation in any competition vehicle to collect data from accidents, aiding in the global effort to enhance safety.

The FIA IDR is a tool to empower ASNs to collect data and analyse the accident from their own championships to better understand how to improve safety. With the use of the data collected by FIA IDR, ASNs will be able to identify and deploy tailored safety improvements in a most effective way..
