monza is the fastest and shortest circuit in f1 and that video can show that the cars are very fast at the turns, and jochen had feel that in that crash R.I.P. jochen

Almost the exact same spot where Von Trips bought it in 61.

@punkerbr yes thats correct! the inboard brake system was horribly problematic, and i think its amazing that jochen won in that heap a shit! true greatness.

wasnt till two yrs later they got the 72 right. didnt even rate in 71

i can not believe how f1 officials could allowing those lotus cars running without wings ?? Colin really pushed the limits , both with car design & with the drivers. all for winning the races , at any price it seems :-( thank you Tryolito for all info.

@deuste99 When the car struck the barrier the front of the car broke off. This caused Jochen to slide forward under his seat belt. The seat belt caught him under the chin and cut his throat. This man was one of the greatest to ever grace F1.

RIP Rindt

[deuste99]

what things does make jochen rindt die? dust?

[punkerbr]

The lack of wings is unrelated to the accident. The brake system of the right wheel broke, this was the real cause of the accident.

[Waterfall64]

yeah but you forget about them turnips, man.

[Troylito]

yes, but the use of front and rear wings provided aerodynamic stability for the design of that car. That car was also equipped with a radical suspension, with anti dive and anti squat configurations in the front and rear that could be adjusted in qualifying by the drivers. That car was radical, and Rindt was very hesitant to drive it when it appeared at first in 1969. In 1970 the bugs had been worked out of it. John Miles was the second driver and was spooked by the car without the wings.
