First, let me apologize if I have put this in the wrong forum. I figure it applies to all driving, possibly moreso in high-performance driving in which one is more likely to crash.
Anyway, some interesting news - the politically correct way to drive in with your hands in the 8 and 4 position on the steering wheel, not 10 and 2 like previously thought. If the airbag inflates, your fingers/hands/wrists/arms/shoulders can be broken, and your fists can go smack into your face, sometimes lodging in your eye socket. Technically, you are never supposed to bring your hands above the 9 and 3 position.
