My brother came over last night for dinner, a few beer, and playing darts. Well he had a few to many in quick succession; I emailed him the "results" this morning in the following form.









I had a good laugh at his expense

That is surely Cristiano de Matta's crash at Road America. I understand the deer removed the outer portion of the roll bar, the part that has the camera. It almost removed de Matta's head.

Actually Stefan Johansson in a McLaren in Austria in 1987. I think it was in practice or qualifying, at something like 160mph. Luckily Johansson was not hurt, but the deer...

A deer that wandered from nearby woods onto the race track at the Oesterreichring race course in Zeltweg, Austria, during practice runs yesterday for the Austrian Grand Prix tomorrow was struck head-on and killed by a Formula One car driven by Stefan Johansson of Sweden. Although the car burst into flames and repeatedly hit the barrier while skidding down the track after the accident, the driver of the McLaren-TAG racer was not injured.

''The deer was walking around there for 10 minutes and no yellow flag went up,'' Johansson said afterward. ''They should have stopped practice.'' Johansson, using a backup car for his official qualifying attempt, placed 14th with a speed of 145.342 miles an hour. Nelson Piquet of Brazil was first with an average speed of 159.457 m.p.h.
