@raptormaster666 two problems with your logic there:

1) modern race car probably wouldn't have lost it there.

2) modern race cars are MUCH stronger! it was sheer luck this one didn't break, it was a glancing blow on a very strong part of the car. Carbon Fiber + Kevlar >> Aluminum Alloys.

@Darkfallsification Adds you to my previous comment, can't be arsed to repeat it everytime someone with a chip on their shoulder wants a throwdown.

@raptormaster666 That's because modern f1 cars are designed so that everything aside from the cockpit breaks up upon impact. It meats that it absorbs most of the energy from crashes. Yes most of the parts of f1 cars today are fragile, the cockpit can take a bullet where as you could probably punch through the cockpit of an 80's f1 car. That's why no one has died in f1 for almost 20 years. Think before you go round ranting about how "It was so much better in the good old days!"

If the Bennetton driver held of that drift if would really be properly bad ass !!

[Douglas6250]

Wow I wish we could still see something like that nowadays, maybe even in the dry, to see F1 drivers driving like D1GP drivers and make smoke everywhere on the track !!
