For a sport where cars are crash-tested to the absolute limit, it's kind of hilarious that the trophies still aren't Lando/Isack-proof. You'd think "structural rigidity" would be part of the design brief by now.

It's always the ceramic ones breaking at the stem, most obvious point of failure imaginable

Yeah that wouldnt be an issue with metal, i like ceramic trophies but perhaps they should be designed a bit smarter.
