Yeah that's what I meant clips of them, I knew you wouldn't have been there when they raced because they are all so long ago. No deaths for a few years so safety must be improving... |

thats because f1 is all safety now.once senna and ratzenberger died they had to change the sport to make it more safer.they wear overalls to cover their whole body and leave as little skin as possible (the face is the only bit not covered) so that they aren't seriously burned.most of them deaths are from fires and seatbelts weren't worn back when a load of them were killed so if they had a bad crash,they were flung out of their car. you should watch the vid that utd4lyf posted,its very touching |

Gilles Villeneuve was a master, might not have won as much as Senna but the guy was a simply phenomenal driver... Sad that so many have lost their lives |
