1996 Formula 1 Argentina GP - Pedro Diniz car on fire

[Hammerhead547]

Ligeir was having a bit of a bad patch at the time.......well most of the previous 15 years.

[Diablotindechap4]

Diniz looks like a gay at this moment

[HMJogMDG]

OMG!!!!!

[Darkapprentice71]

One of the few good pay drivers.

[rambo1999bauer]

[jamie24cfc]

The Sun newspaper in UK had the headline "Diniz In The Oven"

[Polybun]

boy he got the fuck out of that thing didn't he!

[TheJacob98]

Is that Chris Barrie commentating?

[Glitcher2000]

The other cars are snaking to try and build up turbo boosts.

[snipeusa14]

F1 realy needs to go back to argentina

[Fluxsource]

How to paint a car white:

5-10 marshals

fire extinguishers

car

[Chris180Z]

Why do marshals always seem to fall over?

[blainyrules]

@Chris180Z Funny though, look at Canada this year, they were slipping and sliding all weekend.

[vilzaum]

@Chris180Z have you even try to walk in a leca field ? O_o

[Kyoshomies]

[asciende]

FIA​Sporting Regulations: "The applicant must, from a sitting position, be able, alone, to extricate himself and move away from the car. Out of the vehicle, lying on his back, he must be able to turn onto his stomach and vice versa."

[ChuckNorrisOfF1]

"OH NO!!! That cars on fire... quickly lets go *run* ooops *kneeplant* uhhh, IM OKAY"

[adam3000ifly]

[lusmanRally]

@adam3000ifly AHAHAHAH idiot XD



[international153]

That was similar to Schlesser's fatal crash at Rouen 1968.

[Kyoshomies]

better looking track than Abu Dhabi... :/

[reziko53]

1:24 - leakage



[azapro911]

Nothing like a rich Brazilian roast on a Sunday afternoon following dinner.

[darthbandon10]

@azapro911 Watch Nurburgring 1997 or Belgium 1998 if you want to see Diniz's best drives. Unfortunately he rarely came up with the goods (but still better than most paydrivers of the 1990s).

[azapro911]

@darthbandon10 Diniz certainly wasn't a bad driver. One of the few out-and-out pay drivers who actually could drive after all! :-)

[darthbandon10]

@azapro911 Oh, he kept his head in Spain 96 too, when almost everyone else was flying off the road in monsoon conditions. Even if it was 2 laps behind Schumacher, in 6th place.

[azapro911]

@darthbandon10 Well, that was much better than Damon Hill managed that day. I seem to remember that year's World Champion sliding off 3 times and then dawdling into the wall after 10 laps, so Diniz's drive was quite credible really.

[darthbandon10]

@azapro911 Having a look at some of Pedro's other points finishes, he also outpaced Hill in the 1998 Monaco race (6th v 8th, a full lap ahead despite the inferior machinery) although Salo's 4th was more impressive.

[reptongeek]

@azapro911 To be fair to Damon he did say that Diniz was underrated as a driver when they were team mates. To emphasise his point Diniz qualified ahead of him at Spa that year

[azapro911]

@reptongeek As pay drivers go, Diniz was one of the best. He kept Damon Hill and Jean Alesi very honest during his time as their team mate.

[INDOORKARTINGBCN]

0:06 he FAIL!

[SaintBlade]

In his Leejay? It's Ligier, pronounced Lee-gee-ay.

[ebyard]

I love the Renault Clio being used a safety car. I have one and wish I could drive it around infront of 24 F1 cars :-)

Also this guy needs to learn to pronounce Ligier - it's "Lee zhee ay" not "Lee shay". Grr!

[vilzaum]

@ebyard that was the Clio Williams an amazing car at that time...In-line 4-cyl, 1988cc 150bhp 900kg Top speed: 138mph 0-60: 7.5 sec ...they only made 2500 ...it was a little monster =D

[maskmanyeah]

lol. the car became white instead black

[theempires5]

Probably he playing the CD of "Disco Inferno" in his car

[gfaffy]

hahaha i have a vhs of this race somewhere, the one memorable part of this race

[gamachy]

No, no corras coño, quedate ahi pa que veas jajjajaja

[srwrteam]

the firefigther is very amusing!!

[fred1050]

Amazing!!!

[killcheese1]

LOL @ 0:06

[Hasselnorris]

He looked like will Ferrell in taladega nights "I'm on fire I'm on fire "

[heliumtrophy]

If someone thinks Diniz was a great driver, than Jos Verstappen was a masterful driver :P

[winster626]

[Sjoerd675]

that guy made me laugh!! He just fell over Xd

[brianbergin]

diniz, the greatest  ever.thanks for all the great memories.

[bourlivak88]

@brianbergin diniz the greatest ever? what do you smoke? that must be good stuff lol..

[darthbandon10]

@bourlivak88 He had a couple of good races in the 97 Arrows (Spa and the Nurburgring) but other than that an unremarkable driver to my recollection..

[DennisEastLondoner]

Stupid marshall fell over!

[andresgump]

You should try running that surface with an extintor and a car about to explode in front of you. It must be the easiest thing. :s

[18PacWest]

Fuel sprayed into the car

[AshHill07]

@DennisEastLondoner Looks kinda like he dived to be honest. Like he was expecting it to explode.

[FrodothePuppet]

"Diniz In the Oven", one headline read.

[18PacWest]

Other headlines such as ''10 heroes and a silly little boy'' from the World cup 1998.

[blainyrules]

@FrodothePuppet The Sun? Sounds like the kind of pun they'd come up with.

[international153]

@FrodothePuppet yeah i remember that back in 96
