It was the lower suspension arm, caused a hemirage in his frontal lobe of the brain. They say Brazil has never mourned a superstar like Senna.

It stood out out of all the vids I think, all the videos showed someone passing away in a harsh manner, but that showed desperation and agony also, although the offended driver was dead from the start.

The Ricardo Palletti one with the pile up on the starting grid, when it sets on fire. Surely the impact did'nt kill him the fire did? Thats pretty nasty too when it just burst into flames.

I watched a compilation of all the F1 fatalities the other day.

Some of the earlier ones were truly horrific

That wont load for me, but im guessing there are a fair few of them in there...the one where the driver is trying to push the burning car over brought a lump to my throat
