Yes, the pits are an environment where you could sustain an eye injury. All eye injuries are serious! That's why safety glasses are mandatory

There were many other hazards and bad behavior in the pits as well.

People running down the aisles
Teams crowding the aisles
Teams pushing robot carts too fast through/around slower traffic
Teams operating robots in the aisles
Facilites/Production company people operating carts/forklifts/manlifts in pedestrian traffic without using their horn

A good lawyer could turn spin all that into a negligent/unsafe environment.
