The animation appears to accurately show the before, during, and after of the accident when shown at speed. If the animation is accurate, it shows a few things:

1) The posts on the Armco were not spaced too far apart. The car simply obliterated one of them.
2) Armco barriers, by themselves, are not safe to take the full impact of a modern F1 car.
3) The halo saved Grosjean's life. I still don't like the look of the halo and I think the aeroscreen (which incorporates a halo) both looks better and protects against debris-accident's like Massa's. That said, this was going to be worse than Bianchi's accident without the halo. (Grosjean was likely to be either killed instantly or knocked unconscious then cooked.)
