What was in the wrong? Tom Pryce or the teenage marshal? ht

The surviving marshall was most at fault I believe

>>17474916
the marshal, running across the track while hot is the same as running across a firing range while hot. Pryce was an innocent bystander who lost his life because of the stupidity of a marshal. also, that pic makes me kek everytime

THIS^

you never step on a hot range or a hot track, unless you want bad shit to happen. even if its an emergency, its best to wait a moment until its safer so you don't add to the problems.

>>17474916
The marshal.

>>17475031
nvm, just read that the upward force was so great that the helmet strap ripped his neck off clean, partially decapitating him.

Jeez, never knew about that.

>>17475031
Safety and head injuries. weren't well researched at the time.

A similar thing happened to Felipe Massa In 09 but he survived and eventually came back to race.

Still amazing that ONE of the occupants survived this, even if he remained in coma for a month.

R.I.P Michael Wyder though

if youve ever seen the movie rush, the scene with the decapitated guy is based off of this incident

>>17475154
the crazy part is the story of how he survived, he somehow managed to drag himself out of the car while he was still on fire and put the fires out in a nearby body of water. racing drivers are fucking gods

>>17475143
scotty is right
they are the scum of the earth

>>17475161
That's fucking badass.

>>17475177
was the barrier along with the body of water creating some sort of optical illusion of a road?
