04:32, It's not a difficult question at all. The only way that would never have happened, would have been if he had never got in that boat; which he did. Didier was racer and it was what it was..
That’s an Ignorant comment cause that same logic would have to applied to cars too, those were originally intended for carrying passangers not evolving into f1, rally, sports cars, etc. Different mediums for different objectives. Humans natural instinct is to continue to build on things and push limits
@@ajst784well it's all for entertainment and money, development comes second. By your logic gladiators arenas were also to see the human limit? Don't get me wrong I like F1 , but thankfully it's much safer today
@@G0N0X Valid point, We often do all types of mad things for entertainment and selfish gain. Although these things turn into money pilling businesses the original intention for creating some of these sports isn't always as evil. But hey that's why as humans we're so good at screwing things up lol, we've been doing it since the beginning of time. F1 becoming more safe is one of the things humans got right, back then it truly was lethal and so many avoidable and unnecessary deaths. Elio De Angelis, Gilles Villeneuve, Ronnie Peterson, Roger Williamson, Jochen Rindt etc.
Disgraceful. It is motor racing, gentlemans agreements stopped being an adhered to thing after the 50s. If you think people still had respect for them in the 80s, you are very much mistaken. Pironi did what he was hardwired to do.
@@sabinevilleneuve190 If you have been there in person, then you‘ll probably know that the ‚SLOW‘ sign in Imola came out for the first time on lap 46. Didier Pironi was leading at that time. So who was the traitor here….?
I don't believe that three F1 wins should be characterized as 'a brilliant career', especially when one of those wins was stolen from an unsuspecting and trusting teammate.
Anyone who wins a Grand Prix has had a brilliant career. If you ever race against someone at club or national level, who simply outclasses the whole field, but could only go on to be a midfield F3 runner, and the F3 champion that year could only go on to be a midfield F2 runner, and the F2 champion never even made it to F1, then you realise what a brilliant career you have to have to get to F1 and win three races.
RIP Didier
Sometimes too much speed gets you.

Colibri was racing at circa 80mph. Todays class 1 boats routinely race at 120mph and above, conditions permitting. Safety is much improved
Pironi é com i.
* no steering link between between drives is odd ?! GOD Bless
Fighter Canopies were introduced following this tragedy
How did an oil tanker get within range of a powerboat race?
The English Channel is a busy seaway.
PIRONI...
Tragic what happened to the two rivals
Who cares how fast a boat goes? They're for relaxing.
All kinds of people post comments on RUclips. Wow.

You can't even spell his name right?
I remember HIM as a traitor to Gilles!

That's fake :)

I’m reading his biography
Just got to bit after the 1992 GP Crash
82
Karma caught this 💩😂🤣VIVO GILLES❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥
What a stupid things to say and to think, using your logic Senna deserved to die because he didn't respect a team order in Imola in 1989....

That's a known myth, widow.
He could've been way better if it wasn't for the crash

Known by Italians, maybe.
