Legit one of my heroes

The main reason Senna got out was because Comas had his foot stuck on the throttle.

Ayrton Senna jumps from his own car, runs towards an injured driver after a terrible crash and holds the injured driver's head in a stable position until the doctors arrive.

Senna was an unique individual

Smart enough to know it was a Red Flag. Dumb enough to run across the track to save a mans life.

lol

2018-04-15 00:52:13 UTC  

yeah

You can hear the Engine in this clip

2018-04-15 00:55:05 UTC  

yeah

and that linked me to Zandvoort 73 something I wish I never had to see again.

Total Horror Crash

if you don't know it, I'd suggest not googling it

Maybe Wiki it, but not the video

explain

Fellow driver David Purley, who witnessed Williamson's impact, almost immediately pulled his car over on the opposite side of the track, then ran across the live racetrack to assist him. Williamson was heard shouting to Purley to get him out of the car as Purley tried in vain to turn the car upright. There appeared to have been ample time to right the car and pull Williamson out, but as desperately as he tried, Purley was unable to do it by himself, and the marshals, who were not wearing flame retardant overalls, were unable to help due to the intense heat.

Race control assumed that it was Purley's car that had crashed and that the driver had escaped unharmed. Many drivers who saw Purley waving them down to stop later claimed that they assumed Purley to be trying to put a fire out from his own car, having safely exited it, and thus did not know that a second driver had been involved. As a result, the race continued at full pace while Purley desperately tried to save the life of Williamson.

they both died ?

There was only a single fire extinguisher in the area, and it was not enough to put out the fire. With the car still burning upside-down, the situation became hopeless, and the distraught Purley was led away by a marshal. Some spectators, appalled at Williamson's plight, tried to breach the safety fences in order to assist Williamson, but were pushed back by track security staff with dogs.[citation needed]

With the race still on, it took some eight minutes for a fire truck to completely travel around the circuit with the flow of race traffic. By the time the car was eventually righted, and the fire extinguished, Williamson had died of asphyxiation. A blanket was thrown over the burnt-out wreck with Williamson still inside, and the race carried on.

Williamson burned to death, Purley tried in vain to save him

he was the only one that could get close enough and with no red flag other drivers that could have helped kept driving

but there's video and it's sad

2018-04-15 01:13:39 UTC  

nah

2018-04-15 01:13:43 UTC  

that's enough for me

I'm just glad there's no audio

2018-04-15 01:17:51 UTC  

nah

2018-04-15 01:18:05 UTC  

deaths like that is not something that i want to watch

I'm kinda used to it in Motorsports, watched a bunch of my heroes die but that is perhaps the darkest death in F1

but with that and Senna's death it has become alot safer

2018-04-15 01:21:28 UTC  

yeah

some say too safe

2018-04-15 01:21:47 UTC  

well, i don't see that as a bad thing

2018-04-15 01:21:48 UTC  

for real
