@deeproracing you mean marshalls and no they where not slow they where at the scene very quickly.

@natakatu powder and foam. Powder to knock down the fire and foam to help stop it reigniting

@quatfro NO. during a big accident radio silence is obeyed so that ambulance services etc can be dispatched to accident by radio control without people interrupting. Its vital.

ALSO @contactacb you got stand on the bank and watch a terrifying accident and see if u hold composure. Running and flapping about... insult. especially cause u prob never marshalled in your life.

@deeproracing Run and you fall over and are useless, or worse get taken out - there is many a clip of marshals running & flapping about and not being that effective, plus the famous one who ran across a track & got killed by a car (also killing the driver). The terrain isn't conducive for running, especially if the car hits a gravel pit.

So why did he crash?

[bazmataz07]

Ross brawn pulled him out alive

[quatfro]

Radio silence? You'd think heavy radio usage would aid the situation!

@mikeyisace07 Pfff they still run half the pace i would run in that situation.................. xD

@deeproracing Ok, for comparison's sake, the marshalls were on the scene in about 9-11 seconds. Gerhart Berger's crash at Imola, where the marshalls were transported by truck rather than foot, it took them 15 seconds to reach the car. Since the Imola marshalls were considered fast by Murray "pants on fire" Walker, then being there in about 2/3rds the time makes the Brit marshalls grease lightning.
