The video makes it seem longer than it actually was. It’s still amazing he walked away from that not only because of the flames, but the impact.
F1 owes a huge debt of gratitude to Jackie Stewart. When he was a major star in F1 racing back in the 70s, he leveraged his stardom to lobby F1 and course owners to make the cars and tracks safer for drivers. He even went so far as to tell promoters and organizers on race day that he would withdraw from the race if certain immediate measures weren’t taken to improve safety. In one instance it was cutting down some trees that presented a hazard to cars if they went off course. Stewart said something along the lines that racing had turned into a blood sport. ‘People believed race drivers had a death wish.’ There’s an excellent documentary on this. It’s a fascinating look at the evolution of safety in F1 race car driving. |
