Remember Ayrton
Posted by drafi5
Is this black day in the F1 history already 16 years ago ? We lost Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna that weekend in Imola, one of the sadest days ever...
The angel fell down from heaven and we lost the BEST F1 driver of all times, we will always remember Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger, R.I.P.

RIP Ayrton, and also RIP Roland. The most tragic race meeting in F1 history, made all the more shocking by the fact that it was in modern times.
You're never forgotten
You're never forgotten
RIP Ayrton and Roland.
All the more memorable now with Bruno in Formula 1!!!
R.I.P. to both of them even though I was too young to watch them on TV

R.I.P. Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger
Gone but never forgotten.
If I had a penny for everytime I heard that I'd be a rich man. Don't get me wrong but whom are we telling this? I don't think anyone who reads this will go "Senna and Ratzenberger died that weekend in Imola? WOW, that's big news" or "Senna! I completly forgot about him since he's gone". Is it possible to remember and honor them without stating the obvious over and over again? Over here you'd have to pay 5 € into the "Phrasenschwein" (a swear-box, only for very hackneyd phrases).

The marshals thing bugs me with how fatal accidents are classified. BBC said that the 00s was the only complete decade in which F1 had had no fatal accidents. Well I think the family of the marshal who was killed at the Australian GP would beg to differ with that. These marshals allow the drivers to race and should be remembered accordingly.
Similar topic, at the bus stop chicane on the backstretch at Daytona there is a little Yoda figure who is glued to the wall. He is there because a marshal which they nicknamed Yoda died in 2004. Yodas figure was there in 2006 when I visted (I can't find the photo now ), and I hope it is still there today.

yeah at Monza 2000 Paolo Ghislimberti (hope i spelt it correctly from memory) died when the Jordans and Barrichello's Ferrari collided and Verstappen's Arrows cartwheeled over a couple of other cars. it was the race that Schumacher equalled Senna's 41 wins and cried during the press conference with Hakkinen and Ralf sat alongside him.
and then at Melbourne 2001 Grahan Beveridge died when Villeneuve went over Ralf's car at turn 3.
RIP Jules, never to be forgotten. #KeepFightingMichael
