Terrible F1 accident
I hope this isn't a repost. This was posted on a local club forum, and I knew that you enthusiests would appreciate the photo.
I'm not sure what year this happened, but it is a true testament to engineering that we don's see this type accident more often. http://pong.no/~opyrt/Terrible-F1-accident.jpg It's amazing what somebody can walk away from.
