I know that motorsport cant be pretty with crashes happening on the track but today motorsport is now safer than anything but back in the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's motorsport was dangerous so if you are old enough to try and remember the dark days *coughs* darkstar try to remember
1994 San Marino Grand Prix 29 April- 1 May
29 April-Practice-Rubens Barrichello was launched over a curb and into the top of a tyre barrier at the Variante Bassa, knocking the Brazilian unconscious though quick medical intervention saved his life. 30 April-Qualifying-Austrian Roland Ratzenberg crashed head-on into a wall at over 310 km/h at the Villeneuve corner, dying instantly from a basilar skull fracture. 1 May-Race-Three-time World Champion Ayrton Senna lost control of his car and crashed into the concrete wall at the Tamburello corner on Lap 7. He was immediately killed upon impact, as a piece of the car had pierced his helmet and skull.
