As someone who is passionate about Formula One and who was absolutely devasted after witnessing the events of this tragic weekend, I have uploaded these videos as a tribute to Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger.

CAUTION: Some accident scenes are graphic so if you are sensitive to such material please do not watch.

They clearly show how dangerous this circuit once was and also how the Marshalls and Paramedics used to treat drivers immediately after an accident. At the start of the year the FIA had banned certain driver aids and the sport literally became more dangerous as a result.

Senna himself had predicted major accidents and can be seen here investigating how Barrichello is after his accident and commandeering the Safety Car to drive down to the Villeneuve corner to see where Ratzenberger went off the circuit.

It is a testimony to how advanced Formula One and Motorsport (in general) has now evolved in terms of safety and post-accident driver care.

For the true Ayrton Senna fans, it's a last chance to see him flying around a track at top speed on his way to his 65th and last ever Pole Position. We can only guess how he would have developed the Williams FW-16 that year and wonder what could have been.

Please be respectful but feel free to leave comments.

Rest in Peace - Ayrton and Roland

Thank you

“Senna's answers were halting and he looked glazed, as if mentally worn out. When a reporter asked him about Rubens accident he began a sentence 3 times, but kept losing the thread. He then ominously changed the subject and told them that Imola was a dangerous circuit, that there were a few places that were ‘not right as far as safety is concerned’. They asked him why the drivers hadn’t done anything about it and he told them: “I have opened my big mouth too often.”

I think Rubens swallowed his tongue in this incident. It may have happened when the marshalls carelessly let the car pound the ground after turning it upright!

They couldn't find two more guys to gently guide the car onto its wheels?

[DAH210774]

@FrodothePuppet It shows how much things have improved heh, thank goodness :-)

[robertrichards777]

It would not have been good for Rubens if he had a neck/spine injury when those marshalls flipped the car back over straight away.....

[Senna4Ever94]

Mate these uploads are really great, it's so cool to look back on how the cars used to look like and to see Senna go around this track like the true master he was

Hats off to Professor Watkins and his assistant for working at a blazing fast pace when they got there to help Barrichello.

OMG tht car was off the ground, it was flying, thank god he hit the tyre wall and not the concrete like Senna and Ratzenberger, otherwise it would most likely be the 3rd F1 death that terrible weekend. Barrichello is one of my fav F1 drivers thank goodness he is ok now, those marshalls are o stupid he could have had a neck or head injury and tht would have made it worse

Incredibly irresponsible marshalling throughout. Good god.

@FrodothePuppet or when he crashed

[Lkenneally]

@FrodothePuppet he nearly shallowed his tongue

RIP Ratzenberger, Senna, and good luck to Rubino!

I do not want to try to discriminate any of the marshals for i was not there and do not know what exactly what it was like on that track side. So to lighten the mood of that whole weekend and point out the track marshall who somehow trips and falls backwards on a car fragment at 8:10. Then angered by it, he throws it. Still angry he takes out the rest on the tire he picks up, which he is seen smashing into the wall at 8:17. Then at 8:20 his revenge on the fragment is too brutal for the camera.

@robertrichards777 he had actually swallowed his tongue at this point!! those fucking marshalls should never be allowed to work another race!! fucking disgraceful!!
