It's the angle of Derek's head when it wedges into the gravel trap that gets to me every time I watch this. You almost resign yourself to the fact his neck must get snapped. Amazing escape
It's amazing how exposed they are! Look closely at Warwick's head as the car rolls over and you'll see just how lucky he was, and just how big an accident that was.
If you'd seen Monza 1990 live, you'd know that 1st lap crash was the one they were talking about. It was one thing getting out of the car after such a massive crash alive and uninjured, it was another sprinting down the pit lane to jump straight into the spare car in time for the restart - huge applause from the tifosi. Warwick was a fantastic driver but never seemed to have much luck in F1, always seemed to end up in a team just as it went past it's sell-by date.
@TestECull Yeah todays cars are safer but you still need balls to drive them, if you don't think that's the case you know nothing about motorsport and F1.
@Davetheravepow Do note the adjective "large" I applied to the noun "cajones". This implies that you don't need large balls. Note that nowhere, except perhaps your wacko dimension, does that mean "none at all".
Used to be a day you needed a brass pair to race. Now all you need ins a RB7 and just enough cajones to not pansy out at 150m and you'll have a world championship before you're old enough to buy the booze you celebrate with!

The combination of the eerie music at 0:57 and the sound of the commentators gay voice slightly frightens me.

You just need an RB7.
