On this day April 30th 1994 Roland Ratzemberger lost his life in Imola during Qualifying.
This is an UNSEEN FOOTAGE, never released before. It was shoot by my family who was there that day at that moment.

Imagine in the saturday afternoon you are witnessing Ratzenbergers death crash.
And then about 24 hours later you are witnessing the Sennas death accident, so what a traumatic experience it must have been for a spectator that weekend.
Mind you, a day before, Rubens Barrichello also had a terrible crash that also almost killed him.
@@alpinecross4370 omg
Both tragic deaths but it pisses me off you only hear of senna's death at imola. If.you say ratzenberger died there too that weekend: ah, he was just a rookie, who cares?
No, he was a talented driver who had some bad luck that saturday by picking up gravel from a accident few minutes beforehand. He is forgotten though because "senna died" senna's death was tragic but not any worse that ratzenberger's death.
@@mightress I beg to differ. Yes, they're tragic in the same way and yes, Ratzenberger was a promising talent, but Senna was a titan, and could very well be the best driver in F1 history. There's simply much more weight to Senna's name, so it's what people will inevitably remember more.
It's kind of like how Nascar fans remember Dale Earnhardt's death much more than anyone else's.
@@mightress Does it really piss you off? I'll tell you something that will make you even more furious, if it weren't for Senna's death, Ratzenberger would certainly be little remembered. Ratzenberger is more remembered than De Angelis, Villeneuve for example or other drivers who died in previous years and who had more status than him, Senna's death is more commented on because Ayrton Senna was an icon of a generation of talented F1 drivers of the years 80 / 90 so don't be mad because if it wasn't for Senna's death you wouldn't talk about Ratzenberger these days and make sure he'll be remembered forever but let's not mess things up here, your anger is meaningless and more closer to hatred for the admiration people have for Senna than anything else
I was there, on the same stand, and I cannot forget that tragic moment. The accident is still clear in my mind.
RIP Roland.
Can you please share your memories of the atmosphere there at the moment and the rest of the day?
At that grandstand I assume you knew the situation with Roland was serious. Without smartphones back then, when did you hear that Roland passed away? Was that on the grandstand? Or didn't you knew untill you saw or read the news? Or maybe you knew instantly?
How was the feeling or atmosphere the next day?
And after Ayrtons crash, did you guys there knew what was going on? Were you told through the speaker?
Thanks in advance,
Frank
@@frankg6502 I don't know how spectators felt, i can hear Italian saying he is dead right after it happened, the other commented something about his legs. Watch slow motion video of winner on the podium because it tells a lot about his career.
@@frankg6502 Well I guess we all know how they must've felt after Grosjeans accident last year... Although we felt relief.
@@codaalive5076 What does it say, Mr. high horse?
@@codaalive5076 He did not know Senna was brain dead at the scene, nor did he say it was a good thing. He said it could mean many things, that it could mean waking up the next day (because that does happen). Is he not allowed to be happy for winning? You act as if there's only one emotion a person can feel, or as if there's only one thing that should be on a person's mind, when the world has so many things going on. Just because you wouldn't be, doesn't mean that your way is the best way of going about it. So no, him smiling tells nothing beyond what you WANT it to. Why you'd want to believe something negative about someone shows more about you than anything here. Also, condemn Hakkinen and Burti for the same thing while you're at it, they "celebrated" too.
As for the Speed Channel replay of the race, Bob Varsha was wrong with his statement that they already knew Senna was dead, it wasn't announced until a few hours after the race local time.
I heard that Senna had an Austrian flag with him to wave after the race as a tribute, sadly he died during the race
Polski ....cierto !!
@@searcher99c21 Bs. The only blood spread with when he was treated outside of the car. The piece that entered through his helmet did prevent most Blut from spilling.
There was no flag found in the car. This was debunked long ago. But it's a nice sentiment.
@@arkangelgaming35 Debunked, ROFL. The flag is part of the investigation as evidence and even on the autopsy report. But I guess it was all made up by a coroner who did not even know who Senna was.
@@bowlchamps37 Yet there is no mention of it in any reports at all. Fave it, as a nice gesture it would have been, it simply was not there.
The italian guys got it right from the start: he's dead they say, just from impact
Yes and somebody then adds ''no way you can be alive after crashing there at 300km/h"
Io non ricordo le qualifiche quel giorno, anche io sono dell 86 come altre persone qui che hanno commentato.
Purtroppo ricordo come tutti l incidente in diretta di Ayrton.....
Riposino tutti in pace
Ps, c'è ancora gente che imbocca contromano superstrada ed autostrade
È successo ieri sulla superstrada che percorro ogni mattina.
Lo sciagurato ha impattato con un forgoncino che procedeva sulla corsia di sorpasso, c'è un video di un altro automobilista sull altra carreggiata
Unfortunately they were right, it was a very dark day followed by another as we soon discovered, I watched all of this unfold at that time and was devastated for Roland, but the next day when we lost Ayrton, that was almost unbearable. When I hear about this race and Ayrton, I always spare a thought for Roland, he sometimes gets forgotten by some but thankfully never forgotten by real F1 fans, two great drivers and heroes of F1 RIP Roland and Ayrton ❤️
Roland suffered a basal skull fracture, instant death. In Italian law a death at a public event required that the event be cancelled. F1 covered up his death at the track resulting in the race going ahead, in breach of the law, resulting in the death of Senna. Ecclestone is completely responsible for Senna’s death.
Ecclestone was responsible but not the only responsible, Sid Watkins and others also were psrt of the pathetic show of trying to give first aid to the death body of Ratzenberger, they were even trying to give him pcr some 10 minutes after the crash (even a child could tell you that after 5 minutes without hesrt beat your brain is certainly death)
it was an outrageous charade that ended with the death of Senna
Amazing, your family captured the exact moment in which Ratzenberger damaged the front wing of his car that led to his accident the next lap.. In the Wikipedia it says that he damaged it at a run off at Acqua Minerale chicane but you can clearly see at 3:49 that after spinning on Tosa he tries to rejoin the track but in this attempt he hits the high kerb on the inside of the corner bending the front wing of the Simtek as a result..
His run off a few corners later may have actually been a consequence of this and probably further damaged the car leading to the horrible accident in the next lap.
The car at 3:49 looks like David Brabham's helmet, not Ratzenberger's. I could be wrong, but I think it's the other Simtek.
@@DickTruth no it's Roland
You can't see from this vid if the wing is damaged or not. I doubt he did just gently going up on the kerb like that
The real damage to the front wing happened at Acque Minerali chicane. There is were Simtek's engineers saw from telemetry that something was wrong: they called at the radio Roland but he replied he felt the car was ok.
And the car was ok but nobody could bet that the front wing would have broken in the next lap while he was flatout coming from Tamburello (around 300km/h) approaching Villeneuve kink/turn.
@@77ice11 so after the mistake at the tosa he did another mistake at the acque minerali.chicane?
Ayrton and Roland. The two victims from THAT horrible, tragic weekend. It hasn't gotten any easier over the years since that weekend. The only consolation is I seen Ayrton's colours again, being driven in anger.
Peace.
Hi D, hope you're good. I have a question for you.
Ive heard a theory for a good few years that when someone dies at an Italian (sporting) event, the event would be shut down pending investigation into the death. I've heard (and this isn't very nice) that is why they kept Senna on life support until after the race. But if that was true, wouldn't they've stopped the weekend after Roland died?
Sorry its a long meandering question but I've always wondered if there's any truth to it.
May 1st
@Philly Cheesesteak Ayrton's death was not due to the stupidity of the mechanics. he died because the tires were cold due to the safety car that came in because of the crash at the start. Ayrton's car was low and bounced on the entry straight into the tamburello. to make matters worse, there was a strip of grass between the track and the gravel pit that took the car even more out of contact with the ground. there is an analysis showing the steering bar all the way to the left, which indicates that the car was supposed to make the turn if the tires were warm.
@@marciocbf A broken steering rack would produce the same effect. The only difference is everyone else on the track had cold tires, and no one else went off the track in this fashion. Of course the steering racks of those drivers didn’t break either.
@@biffbifford402 no, because there are several videos that show a shiny metallic piece on the steering bar that indicate the wheel was facing left.
Riposa in pace Roland. In troppi si sono dimenticati di te. Io per fortuna non sono tra questi...
Scusa ma in pochi si sono dimenticati di Ratzemberger. Siamo riusciti tutti insieme a mantenere la memoria di quel povero sventurato.
Io sempre penso a lui e comunque un pilota che faceva storia in f 1 se non moriva
I was 8 when I watched this live on tv and I’ll never forget. RIP
All true F1 fans who lived at that time will never forget roland or the shock of seeing him die, god bless you roland, rest in peace.
A very sad and tragic weekend for motorsport. Rest in Peace Roland and Ayrton 💔
the way the engines sound in this, runs chills up my back in a way they sound scary, and or a warning of the tragedy of that weekend, don't know why but any footage from the qualifying or the race itself just gives me total chills, thanks for uploading
Same, I also got pretty heavy chills watching this, especially from the Ferraris. It’s almost as if the cars were (like you said) warning us of what was to come.
I completely agree it's weird isn't it
There’s a scientific reason for this.
Humans typically fear loud, increasing/crescendoing sounds; it gives us like a feeling of impending danger.
Sirens typically use this philosophy too.
Knowing what we do about what happens next, it’s given that this sound would be so chilling.
Different world then. Pure quality and depth to so many aspects of life including V12 F1. Now we live in hairdryer land with poncy drivers and sanitised tracks. That V12 era was special. It's cardboard now.
bumble bees from hell!! 155db
Should have abandoned the weekend right there. RIP Roland and Ayrton... :(
what i find worse is that after ratzenberger’s death (sorry if i misspelled it), someone told him to drop out of the grand prix and even retire from racing completely, if he had listened, he could have lived longer.
@@BritishMoronthat car was way to dangerous and unreliable. Not the only one those years. The drivers at the back of the grid took big risks.
It was a terrible and sad weekend but probably needed to work on safety.
I witnessed this as a motorjournalist pretty close.
this is really rare footage thank u for sharing this
Stolen video
@@VendPrekmurec how was it stolen it was shot by this fellas family 😭
So sad, and it wasn't nice seeing Senna knowing what tomorrow would bring. RIP BOYS
At 0:22 right? The helmet isn't Damon Hill's.
Oh and 2:25. That goddamn useless helmet. It *is* awful to see. Really really awful. Brings that weekend back in a really horrifying way. I was 8 years old in April/May '94 but I can't forget the gloom that descended on us all.
I'm just desperately willing them both to stop and get out of their cars on replays, even though I know they won't.
@@snaubdca7yebf you and me both, if only we could.
@@snaubdca7yebf no mate that's Senna, Hill had a dark blue helmet with small white vertical stripes going round (his Dad's rowing club's colours).
The crowd applauding Roland as he is being taken to the ambulance gives me cold shivers😢
Respect 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I doubt that they knew he had passed. So sad
The crash itself was scary
But the fact that he ran wide and many minutes later spun at the same corner *before* the crash it's the scariest part
27 anni dopo riusciamo finalmente a vedere perché la Simtek di Ratzenberger perse l'ala anteriore il giro dopo aver fatto il testacoda, credo che nessuno abbia mai visto prima quel fuoripista. Pazzesco, grazie per aver caricato questo filmato!
Hai detto benissimo. Questo video è molto interessante.
E non solo Gabriele riuscì a vederne uno che purtroppo non riesco a trovarlo più anni fa dove si vede che roland fa anche un uscita alle acque minerali ed è lì che tocca l"ala anteriore con più vistosità,tuttavia qui a questa uscita della rosa non si vede bene cosa tocca . 😊👋
@@andreapinto3821 peccato non riuscire più a trovarlo, comunque anche qui nella ripartenza passa sopra il cordolo alto e sicuramente l'ala anteriore in qualche modo si piega. Poi c'è un altro video amatoriale dove si vede il passaggio sul traguardo prima dell'incidente, fa caso pensare che se fosse andato dritto in pit lane invece di affrontare l'ultima chicane, si sarebbe salvato.
@@GabrieleGallagher27 vero purtroppo quel furbacchione di prost l'aveva detta bene era finita la fortuna dovevano cambiare le regole invece hanno dato solo Interesse a business. Ratzenberger se le cercata per incoscienza, ayrton e stato ammazzato per negligenza. Non può avere ayrton il miglior team frank che lo conosceva dai primi anno 80 e poi dargli una Williams così stretta quando aveva una mc laren che ci stavano dentro due piloti
Ah...... Era lui allora al testacoda, e si..... Ala danneggiata
Ma questo video dov è stato in 27 anni.....
Sound of those ferrari engines.. Amazing. Such a sad weekend
As tragic as this time was, it was arguably the best era in F1. The cars were beautiful and yes that V12 was the finest sound of anything on this earth.
The Ferrari has an amazing and undistinguishable sound, you can clearly find out if it is passing one of those beautiful engines even with closed eyes. Those V12 were pieces of art and the 1995 412-T2 is something special. Very sad weekend.
Such a sad weekend. Terrific footage, but gut wrenching at the same time.
I still remember watching that moment live on TV. So surreal.
As I recall the commentary team were talking to a carbon fibre manufacturer about how safe the monocoque were now and then the accident happened very chilling.
That whole weekend has been surreal.
Back then they showed the practice and qualifying on tv? I guess must have been the cable channel. I watched BBC on Race day. (I remember was shown on another Channel but don't think Sky back then)
@@david-fx8ri the carbon tub in itself must have been rather fine. But what killed him was the lack of a Hans device, it was still quite a few years away before that was introduced in motorsports.
@@mintgoldheart6126 yes I noticed he had blood around his face hans and halo now are safety features beyond belief.
It was a long tough climb for him, to finally get to the top, and then fate stepped in, R.I.P. Roland.
What a sad, dad weekend and a watershed in motorsport. Roland passing away in practice, Rubén’s unbelievably violent accident which could have easily killed him in practice and then Senna on Sunday.
Respect, especially to Roland’s family who always seem to be overlooked and forgotten.
nevermind that in the collision at the start of the race i think like 6 or 8 spectators got injured by flying debris as well. it was a helluva weekend.
After the Ratzenberger death, that Imola GP didn't have to go any more!
But....money talks!
Rest in Peace Roland
Rest in Peace Ayrton!
It's a classic track...
It's not particularly a dangerous track just because someone died doesn't mean we can't go
@@indigo8210 he meant that the race should have been stopped for that year
actually, you are right. in fact, they wanted to declare the death of Poor Ratzenberger, only after he was transported off the circuit. as far as I know, if in the event of death on the track, at least at the time, the Italian judiciary should have seized the entire circuit. (at least, that's what I read long ago).
Why? Although the first fatality for many years it was rare to stop the event should a fatality occur.
Look at the 1955 Le Mans crash, 80 or so people dead and they didn't even stop the race let alone end it.
Heartwrenching..RIP ...forever with us
Thank you for posting this video.
Yes thank you! Is this the first time you've ever shown it to anyone?
From my own memory over that horrible weekend at Imola, having watched the live BBC Sport feed presented by Steve Ryder, Murray Walker and James Hunt, it was a scene not to be forgotten. Barrichello sideways crash before the pits during qualifying, Razenberger crash/death, flying debris from the collision at the start involving JJ Letho and debris flying into the pit lane injuring people there and Senna crash.
I still have a copy back then of Autosport magazine, with front page headline, “Death at Imola”, with picture of Senna’s wreak car at Tambarello.
James Hunt died just before the 1993 Canadian GP. It was Jonathan Palmer in the commentary box with Murray Walker that day...
Should be canceled after all this happened before Senna!!!!!
@@maricleo493 Everyone who likes Motorsport, should know that a driver can get hurt or lose their lives and no one has forced to do it.
@@maricleo493 disagree, motorsport is dangerous, this used to happen regularly. 1976 was the first f1 season ever without a fatality. And Lauda came close.
It was a brutal weekend but there was no reason to cancel it.
@@theant9821
Italian law would have forced them to cancel it. Events are stopped by law if a driver dies on track, Roland Ratzenberger did die on track. It was very common especially in countries with laws like that to avoid declaring a driver dead at the circuit, because that would mean the end of the race weekend.
Roland was declared dead on arrival at the hospital, they could do nothing for him, he was already dead and beyond all hope. Autopsy confirmed his death had been instantaneous both in a clinical and cardiac sense of the term.
Sid Watkins even told Senna that Ratzenberger was dead, while he was still in the Medical Centre.
I remember the team saying they thought he might have damaged the wing going off on the lap before - this footage gives some evidence of that. Nevertheless, tragic event.
I've read a lot of times about the spin before the fatal crash, glad to see the video.
Wow yes, priceless footage for those in the know. I’d seen a still photo of it before but never this.
Yeah, who knows there might be still some more unreleased footage of the crash or something, which will never get released
4:10 Everyone in the grandstands realized what had just happened. The guy next to the cameraman says "morti, morti!", which is basically "dead, dead!" The way Ratzenberger's head hung down motionless was a somber indication of that. RIP.
I read something that said that Roland died on impact and the Italian law states that the track should have been locked for a full investigation which would have cancelled the race the following day. Instead, they treated him like he might still live, took him to a hospital to declare his death and continued with the proceedings.
Had they followed the rules, Senna might not have died.
@daveydmur that's exactly how it went down.
Money over life, or in this case, Roland's trackside death.
Never forgotten, always one lap ahead. Roland and Ayrton in one weekend, still hard to come to terms with.
😢x
Min. 3:52 ... Probably that was the moment when Roland broke a part of it's front wing...
Terribile.
R.i.p Roland
Ayrton per sempre
What extraordinary footage - somehow so much more poignant and moving without commentary. I never knew that Roland had a spin that damaged the car. How he waited until he could safely rejoin the qualifying session only to lose his life at the same point the next lap. I was only 23. I used to watch F1 on tv when they started broadcasting the races live here. On that particular Sunday having been away all weekend I happened to switch the radio on (I used to avoid all media so I could watch the race highlights if I’d missed the live programme) of course it was headline news that Senna had also died. I was so shocked I had to pull off the motorway at the next services. RIP both
amazing sound! but very sad weekend! Thanks Phil. greetings from Argentina
Sad to see that ... got goosebumps ... rest in peace mate
Thanks for finding this piece of History.
Thanks for uploading
I was watching the event on Eurosport and the commentator (might have been Allard Kalff) was saying, "go to commercial break", but the camera's remained static. A truly horrible day.
Impressionante ver essas imagens inéditas desse final de semana tráfico em pleno 2021!
Muito obrigado por compartilhar!
Essa rodada do Roland na volta anterior, pode ter ocasionado a quebra da asa, que levou ele a ir reto na volta seguinte.....jamais soube ou tinha visto que ele tinha rodado nessa volta anterior. Impressionante.
Foi dito na época que Roland rodou na pista e danificou a sua asa dianteira antes do acidente ... Provavelmente foi nesse momento mostrado no vídeo que isso aconteceu ...
☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️
ele danificou a asa na curva acqua mineralli, mais pro final da volta, e não nessa rodada exatamente
I am so sorry that you had to see this.
RIP.
💔
Who, me?
It's ok i needed to see this, it means alot to me and senna the next day to.
I love the sound of those F1 cars. Like super angry bees, amazing. Thanks for the footage.
Is that the famous spin Roland had before his qualifying lap which damaged his front wing and caused the accident? If so it’s never been seen on tv footage before!
No,it was at Acque Minerali.
Anyone else would pit... sadly he decided to do another lap... Still sad about his loss and Ayrton’s.
@@roowke It's usually okay to carry on with a damaged front wing if it does not look as if it will fall off any moment. You usually just lose downforce through either left- or right hand corners and would not expect the entire thing to fall off...
@@jogon206 He absolutely should've pitted. It isn't shocking it came off since it was compromised but still had the effects of downforce being applied to it further stressing the wing, not to mention a broken wing can amount to say 1000 lbs less of downforce so taking any turn would be noticeably horrid.
Yes It is.
Ratzy didn’t have to die, RIP RR.
Indeed. Let us feel no remorse nor sorrow but rather hold in the highest regard and honor them that die pushing the envelope doing what they love. I envy their fearlessness,, to them I say Bravo, I salute you!
And the sad part was he was just a rookie, ended his career just when he was starting it
@@housesports000 I think you know too little about his career.
if he was a newbie it was only in F1.he won the 1986 British Championship.
and was very popular in japan
@@CrispinHands yes I was talking about f1, although i have never heard about his past experience I assumed he had experience as did all drivers before and now have
at 4:12 we can hear some guys saying: "is he dead? yeah he's dead", and some other were swearing, they already knew...
Sadly it was a very obvious broken neck. Still one of the absolute worst f1 crashes ever. Dead instantly.
Ok sherlock
Oh yeah è morto è morto

Hoy cumple 28 años de su muerte.. que Dios esté contigo Roland
I recentely heard an interview by Jean Alesi remembering this incident, he was there at the corner on saturday.
Rip Roland.
Very sad day for F1. 2 great drivers were lost that weekend
This makes you think how amazing safety is now in F1 .
safe and boring
@@leart78 so you would rather people die? alright psycho
@@leart78 What, not enough deaths for you these days? Come on, man. The safety measures implemented after this terrible weekend in 1994 were important ones -- and the addition of the halo later has SAVED LIVES already. Grosjean, for example.
After that weekend 94!
@@MrDuneedon I am glad that HANS and Halo were developed. I just wish the more interesting tracks would come back, as the overall safety has improved significantly.
Oh man, i wish that Imola '94 was cancelled, for whatever reason. We might've still had Ratzenberger and Senna with us if it wasn't for that cursed weekend, starting with Barrichello's heavy crash on Friday.
Their dead are the reason for a lot of saftyinventions. They don‘t die for nothing! I‘m sure that many more drivers were killed in the last 15 years without those terrible accidents. Ratzenberger and Senna are heros!
senna wanted to stop the race but... u know it...
And I wish Ecclestone and the FIA would be charged.
Whats really sad is that Senna had an Austrian flag with him in the car to honor Ratzenberger after the race. He truly was one of F1's greatest drivers
Wow thanks for the upload! These gems keep appearing almost 30 years later.
I wouldn't call a video of someones death a gem.
@@kevingraham2733 Gem = valuable which they are
Never knew Jean Alesi was there and witnessed this. Bloody hell.
''Jean Alesi, who was missing his second race due to injury, was watching the cars accelerate through the flat-out sweeps of Tamburello and Villeneuve when Ratzenberger came into view, 18 minutes into the session. The purple car hurtled past at over 300kph and Alesi noticed sparks flying from the front.''
They are always in our mind and hearts.
The 1994 San Marino GP broke my heart. I stopped following F1 for >20 years. The Senna documentary had a segment with Roland talking with a team member then next came the crash.
When Senna died a day later that was it as far as I was concerned.
Yeah, I missed out a lot of incredible racing, I know, but…
same with me
FIA and Imola officials broke the law by allowing this race to happen after Ratzenberger’s death. If a driver dies at the track, race must be postponed because Italian police had to investigate the crash before they could continue the race weekend. Why no one got in trouble is beyond my thinking.
They said he died “ in Hospital “ which is total BS. He dead on impact. Crazy to think no one was had liable for that .
Money talks it seems
Money fia close the eyes and continue like nothing happens in that week end!!!! Ayrton miss you 💖🌟
@@maricleo493 And they got the greatest driver in F1 history ever possibly killed:
A truly terrible weekend. I watched the race live and was stunned when Senna hit the wall. I stood up knowing this was going to be bad. And it was.
I remember.
😔
4:10
You can hear people screaming in Italian as they say "he is dead! He is dead!". So scary.
So unless he went off again later in the lap, 3:40 is possibly the only footage in existence of Roland's off-track excursion (or at least part of it) that led to his front wing failure.
You are right never seen before that close a lap before his fatal crash...
One lap later, tragedy struck
F1 was so dangerous back then. The drivers knew the risks but still doesn’t make it easier. Horrific weekend. I remember it well. Glad that safety has improved over the years.
What a strange weekend, with the conflicting emotions of the worlds fastest driver, clearly seen at the start of the race, and to individual statements of people close to him to his very different behaviour, like almost in fatalistic fashion, then two deaths, and nearly a 3th one, strange indeed.
"...è morto..." la stessa identica cosa che ho pensato davanti alla televisione vedendo il casco che ciondolava dall'abitacolo.
Lo scandalo fu praticare per 50 minuti massaggio e respirazione ad un cadavere pur di non dichiaralo deceduto nell'autodromo.
La dichiarazione avrebbe aperto immediatamente l'istruttoria bloccando l'impianto e domenica non si sarebbe corso.
Terrificante... E pensare che il giorno dopo morì Senna...
Purtroppo hai ragione, le ragioni economiche hanno prevalso sulla vita dei piloti.
D'altronde la gara non venne annullata nemmeno il giorno dopo quando ci fu il gravissimo incidente che coinvolse il numero 1 Senna.
We lost Razenberger, Senna and almost Rubens Barrichello in the same weekend.
Che triste ricordo.. proprio oggi ho letto che la rottura dell'ala anteriore potrebbe essere dovuta al testacoda avvenuto il giro prima alla tosa (momento oltretutto presente nel video)
Te hai guardato la formula 1 che avevi dimenticato 😅
In teoria dovrebbe essere stato alla variante alta toccando violentemente il cordolo. Poi perse l'ala all'altezza del Tamburello, per poi non avere alcun carico sull'anteriore all'inserimento della Villeneuve. Non credo sia stato alla Tosa perchè pur andando in testacoda avrebbe comunque dovuto urtare un cordolo o prenderlo abbastanza duramente, cosa che alla Tosa non si fa.
@@lanciengameur8032 già. Proprio ora è uscito un documentario sul canale di motorsport.it che racconta di senna ed anke di Roland
@@alessandroaldo3520 ciao Alessandro, comcordo in pieno su i tuoi dubbi ma proprio ora è uscito un video su canale di motorsport che attribuisce il danneggiamento dell'ala di Roland al testacoda fatto alla tosa. Ho cercato altri articoli sull'accaduto dove magari venga descritto il risultato delle indagini che vennero fatte ma non ho trovato nulla. Se un giornalista affermato come Franco Nugnes, all'epoca direttore di Autosprint, parla di danneggiamento dell'ala alla tosa, non credo che lo dica per impressione ma immagino che sia il risultato delle indagini
Do you have more footage from
Friday and Sunday?
03:40 One round before he has damaged his front-wing at this place ?
From another comment i read, I do believe that is Roland Ratzenberger at 3:40
Yep he damaged his wing supposedly at 3:40, then tried to do another lap when the team told him to pit to replace the wing and it failed on him a lap later same place, idk if it’s true
i was sitting in the Tosa stand on the Saturday morning and both Simteks went off on the outside and I'm fairly sure that happened more than once. I do recall that on several of these occasions despite going off on the outside both drivers went over the high curb on the inside of the track similar to what happened at 03:40.
I'm glad that the couple of friends I was with and myself moved to the Variente Alta for the Saturday Qualifying session and missed the fatal accident.
For the Sunday I was sitting on the hill at Rivazza.
Vuoi o non vuoi poter avere video inediti di quei giorni funesti ci porterà sempre curiosità, anche dopo 27 anni sembra davvero sia accaduto l'altro ieri. Ciao Roland ;(
Io c'ero quella sfortunata fine settimana, e mi dispiace per sempre che dovevamo perdere il grande Ayrton Senna, campione della pista ed uomo straordinario.
Riposa in pace ragazzo
3:51 i think is HERE the cause of broken wing in the other lap, he touched the high kerb....
Dios mio ha?
I was thinking that as well, never knew where he hit the kerb but it was right there.
According to Simtek’s telemetry, the damage was actually done at Acque Minerali because they saw he went off at that section. Still haunting to see him recover from a spin at the corner he’d be killed at just minutes later…
Absurdo o que fizeram, ele morreu na pista, montaram um cenário pra corrida poder acontecer no domingo e o Senna morrer 😔😔
Who’s car was that being lifted off the course ratzenberger or the other one?
Loved formula 1 back then
28 anni fa. 💥🏎️💔
Almost 3 decades ago but wake me up 3 o'clock in the night and I will give you the date, place and where I've seen it.
Two driver lost their life on one weekend.
But if there is one thing who you can see any sense in it. They must die before they brought more security in F1. The development of Mono Cockpit after that accidents saved a lot of drivers lifes. I'm sure.
watched the senna doc the other night i saw all of this way back then showed it in the doc sent shivers down my spine all those years ago god
Instantly after his fatal accident happened, I recall having heard about Ratzenberger having an off a lap earlier which was the cause to the front wing failure later. Is the moment at 3:40 that?
I guess so....not sure though.
Yes I reckon so. Check the front wing at 3:49 when he hits the high curb, something clearly broke there and then.

That could possibly be the true fatal mistake both by the driver in some respects and I dare say mostly by the team.
They had to call him back to the pits for a check up of the car. A mere misjudgement of the body
damage ? Who can say.
According to Simtek’s telemetry, it wasn’t here. Roland damaged the wing at Acque Minerali. He decided to not pit and then met his fate. Don’t know at what point in the session he had this spin, but it’s such a haunting thing to see; he had a spin at the corner he’d come to rest at just a few minutes later…
I wonder if that was the exact same time he damaged his front wing, which led to his crash
1:08 it looks like the MTV Simtek team had issues with their car and how it handled because you already see David Brabham spin out of control and also at 3:38 just before Roland dies he spins out of control again and goes back on track.
I'm assuming the Simtek team already had sharp words from David Brabham about the mechanical issues the car had and the team went ahead and sent Roland out to see if it was the overall car having mechanical issues. Unfortunately we all know that the wing flew off at 190 mph sealing the teams fears
I was enjoying my traditional Sunday morning F1 breakfast (-4UTC) when Senna crashed....I will never forget that weekend and the tradition has never been the same.
Indeed it was the same tradition for us albeit with Sunday roast in the UK. My father had worked for Mclaren and with Senna, prior to Senna leaving for Williams. We all would be glued to F1 throughout the years. Yet we all knew it would be bad a move to Williams and sure enough he never got the results he wanted, as everyone expected. We continued watch and follow Senna's career, still sad that he left Mclaren for Williams and seeing Mclaren stuggle there after. However, after the events of Imola watching Senna's demise, our F1 tradition faded and was never the same too
@@phil.i.am2 wow that's an amazing story.! Ron Dennis had the best cars and drivers.
Safety is much better nowadays, god bless Roland Ratzenberger. RIP
But the cars sound like racing cars, not Toyota Yaris Hybrids.
Rembered it well terrible weekend with senna being killed in the race was sitting watching it and was so sad as he was my favorite driver the best ever .
Senna era incomparável, apesar do carro instável fez a polie, pena que o destino já estava traçado e neste dia dava seus sinais com a perda de Ratzemberger..
28 Jahre ist es her 😢😣🙏
😥R.I.P
Quanti video ci sono ancora inediti?
Perché escono a distanza di 27 anni?

Habe gebetet für beide Fahrer.RIP Roland und Ayrton
The start of the season was so bad that year. Alesi and Lehto injuring their backs in testing crashes. Then the 4 car pile-up at Interlagos with J. Verstappen, Irvine, Brundle & Bernard. Then all what happened at Imola. Next was Wendlinger at Monaco and he was put into a coma. And finally Montermini had a big one in Spain damaging his legs. And then the Morbidelli, Brundle and a marshal in Japan towards the end of the year. My first year of watching F1 and my first live on TV race was the ill-fated San Marino GP. My first experience of what death was the same time aswell as I was only 8 years old. Although sad and possibly distasteful, I was hooked on all motorsport from there onwards. God may all racers and other personnel race forever in our heaven and our hearts. ❤
If only he stalled after that first spin
das schwärzeste Wochenende in der Formel Never R.I.P Never forget
Michele Alboreto shaking his head at 4:39 . He knew.
Amazing footage
The noise of those F1 cars back then makes hair on your neck stand up.
Essa Corrida Jamais teria sido realizada... Segurança Zero para os pilotos...
Ratzenberger e Senna ambos morreram na Pista!!!
Vergonhosos e desumano, somente pelo $$$$.
Unvergessen
This accident seems to have been scrubbed off the internet, no one has filmed it, or have cut out the moment he crashes.
Yepp... like this clip. something smells.
Apparently the front wing came off Roland’s Simtek while he was approaching Tosa, which is what caused his accident. Really tragic… I often wonder why there wasn’t a tire wall or additional run-off there?
You cant put additional runoff there - it'a hairpin. Tyres could have been added, but nobody really used to go off there. unless you have a failure, it was basically a straight, and just wasn't a consideration at that time.
@4 minutes. Is that Roland? Is that when he damaged the wing?
Career ended way too soon. 27 years ago RIP
Nobody forced them at gunpoint to drive in F1, huh?
@the Game, Review and Reallife Channel i meant 27 years ago sry
The darkest weekend in
Motor racing history. Roland
Wanted to put on a good show.
Even though the Leyton house
Car had sketchy handling at the
Limit. Journey well brother. ❤️
Real drivers back then unlike the crap we have to endure nowadays
what do you mean? The new formulas are way faster and the forces to the pilots are higher.
@@milanmocik3591 cars are easier to drive though. Apples and oranges.
@@milanmocik3591 The car's they have now are very boring to drive and very boring to watch. If you look at F1 today, it's mostly trying hype things up, when they is not much in it. DRS, KERBS, Electric Engines, excess regulation, too much grip, car's are too long, terrible sound. It's like their all on rails. I recall, Allesi doing laps in 1970's Ferrari this year, you could feel and see that energy coming back. Today there is no energy in modern F1. They need to go back to the early 90's regulation, make it safer, Halo, more Side Protection, maybe make the car's 20 - 25% bigger for safety, bring back those loud engines, just add 20 to 25% more weight, more engine power. No DRS, NO electric engines.
Todays f1 cars are easy to drive. The older cars were much more unpredictable
2 deaths and a injury in 3 days of f1,so sad 😔
Incredible footage. It looks like Roland had trouble with that corner even before his crash. I couldn't tell - was that his Simtek getting pulled out of the gravel trap by the crane, or was that his teammate?
In my opinion it was David's car. Look at the helmet.
Yeah that was Brabham’s Simtek on the crane being pulled out of the trap…Brock, I am certain. I think both teammates were having handling problems all over the course that day. This is a dubious anniversary…
I always thought that his rear wing failed and spun because he lost all the back downforce going into the right turn at the top of the screen
I remember being at the Indy 500 qualifications when Gordon Smiley was killed...horrific!
