@NOXXism yh the doctor said that ronald was still alive just at the track but knew he would not make it but he died at hospital and the race went on. But it's better that senna went in his prime IMO because it pains me to see Schumacher get over taken Senna will always have my respect but Schumacher is becoming forgotten

How badly was he injured? It looks like he can't get out of the car when it sets on fire.
-
@NOXXism It was not possible, there is a river behind the corner, it is called Santerno.
-
this is a clear evidence that Ayrton Senna had a really bad luck at tamburello .
-
@chrismarkbicknell nice try
-
I wasn't aware of that. It's eerily similar to Senna's crash & I thought it, at least, raised the question that Senna's crash was down to lack of downforce and the car hitting the skids. However, now I know that, I guess it dismisses any link between the 2.
Any way, thanks for the info.

OK, I'm not saying that this crash proves anything. However, looking at the manner in which Bergher went off, very similar to Senna, does it not at least raise the question that maybe there was more to Senna's crash then the column breaking? It's an open question I'm putting out there. Not a statement of fact. Food for thought, surely?

@ismaillol100 no ;)

berger ta morto?
-
die?
@tiadaid No, even Senna would have survived, but was very unlucky, the wheel hit the helmet throwing him violently against the headrest causing a skull fracture on the back of the head. Moreover two carbon suspension arms have penetrated the skull and the helmet of Ayrton.

@bbathoorn I was watching the race that day. Very strange feeling to watch a guy burn. But I remember the other camera angle, in replay, where you could see the marshal starting to run towards the car immediately after he hit the wall, then realizing Berger is continuing to slide down the track. He spun around and got into the Alfa Romeo, the other guy already started the engine and with doors open they raced after the Ferrari. In incredible 12 seconds they were there and did a great job!
