Has to be Grosjean’s in 2020

[@martoto77]

No drivers were seriously hurt. But a marshall was killed by flying debris in the Monza 2000 GP crash.😢

[@martoto77]

Patrese and Piquet crashing on the main straight at Monaco in 85 was the first big shunt I remember seeing. With the wrecked car skidding out of control between the barriers and sparks flying everywhere.It was the moment I realized how dangerous F1 is. And how insane the Monaco GP is.

[@theoriginalttb8411]

Has to be Luciano Burti 2001 Spa when he tangled with Irvine Blachimont

[@random_adventuring]

Where is Grosjean's massive fireball crash? That is the worst one ever

[@oo-kaylol]

Jules bianchis fatal crash: am I a joke to you?

Ever?

[@johnmcclane9538]

Casually disregarding #1 non-fatal crash, Grosjean's fireball at Bahrain and the biggest pile-up at Spa '98. Also Nikki Lauda, but still great video

[@losingmysanity1]

what about pedro lamy back in 1994 at silverstone

[@LG633TV]

Not to mention the track marshal that got killed by flying debris during that pileup at Monza in 2000

[@Emo9877]

I think Niki lauda was the worst since he had so many painful injuries

[@HammamiProductions8933]

​@@Emo9877Dude I'm surprised Niki Lauda survived

[@hmdwgf]

You missed a few, that you can hopefully put in the next video: -Alliot during practice at Mexico ‘88 -Lauda’s crash at Nurburgring ‘76 -Jackie Stewart at Spa ‘66 -Stirling Moss and Mike Taylor at Spa ‘60 -Jody Scheckter at Silverstone ‘73 -The 1998 Belgian GP pile up -Nelson Piquet at Imola ‘87 -Gilles Villeneuve at Imola ‘80 (Italian GP) -Senna’s biggest ever crash at Ricard ‘85 -Carlos Reutemann at Jarama ‘78 -Gerhard Berger at Imola ‘89 -Prost’s biggest ever crash at Watkins Glen ‘80 -Clay Regazzoni at Long Beach ‘80 -Jacques Laffite at Brands Hatch ‘86 -Nelson Piquet at Monza ‘79 -Fangio at a non-championship race at Monza in 1952 -Jack Brabham at Portugal ‘59 -De Cesaris at Austria ‘85 -Michael Andretti at Interlagos ‘93 -Michael Schumacher at Adelaide ‘94 -Martin Brundle at Melbourne ‘96 -Jo Siffert at Nurburgring ‘69 -Jacques Villeneuve at Spa ‘99 (I think) -Nannini at Hockenheim ‘90 -Caffi at Monaco ‘91 -Nigel Mansell at Suzuka ‘87 -Romain Grosjean at Bahrain 2020 -Mark Webber at Valencia 2010 -Stefano Modena at Imola ‘89 -Martin Donnelly at Jerez ‘90 -Derek Warwick at Monza ‘90 -Jean Alesi at Montreal ‘90

[@corbinselanne7990]

1994 San Marino: One dead F1 champion, one dead rookie, one badly injured Brazilian, multiple injured mechanics, 9 injured spectators 2011 Monaco: Nouvelle strikes Checo really hard, Sauber's second serious incident at the track 2012 Belgium: PILEUP! Partly due to a First-Lap Nutcase... 1998 Belgium: The Big One strikes almost immediately, not helped by rain 2018 Abu Dhabi: One Nico Hulkenberg left hanging there like a cow 2000 Monza: Several cars collected at the chicane, claiming Paolo Gislimberti thanks to someone's car losing a wheel 2003 Brazil: The two-car wreck between Webber and Alonso left zero podium spots occupied by the correct guy (Alonso was in the hospital while a scoring error had Kimi and Fisi in the wrong spots)

[@itsjordanf4320]

At 20:50, I believe a marshal or someone trackside died from the wheel flying off

[@RacersReverie]

oh really? We weren't aware of that. We tried researching all the crashes to make sure there were no fatalities, but very sorry if we missed that one

[@itsjordanf4320]

@@RacersReverie all good!

[@Qwerty-wn3fl]

Paolo Gislimberti was struck by the flying wheel on the chest and killed almost instantly.

[@kartdriver92]

@@RacersReverie I do confirm. Race marshall and Fire marshal Paolo Gislimberti Died by a rogue wheel being launched by Frentzen Jordan strucking him on chest and head. Many said he died on spot and some said he died while being transported. It was terrible, I watched it live when I was a kid, simply awful...

[@brendanwilliams7291]

Gerhard Berger had one of the worst crashes i could remember when his car hit the wall at Imola in 1989:@and caught fire, he was knocked unconscious and suffered serious burns to his hands.

[@MayhemGames]

He returned to the grid and raced that year.

[@paulwatkins6086]

Whilst no drivers were seriously injured in these accidents. You fail to menation that, for example, the pile up at turn 4 in MOnza resulted in the death of a marshall. This should, at least, have been acknowledged. I know... I was at turn 4...

[@theempresspalace]

So the first video……. “He went head first” clip literally shows the car going in backwards but sure that’s head first.. nailed it

[@astrothunder-r2j]

you should do some research

[@Trivaldo99]

I got the ick when ‘Berger in the Williams’ crashed into Berger’s McLaren, suggesting Patrese got the attempted overtake wrong when it was actually Berger’s sudden pit entry that caught Patrese out, then stating it took two wheels off of ‘Berger’s’ car. Then suggesting that Verstappen/Brundle crash, everyone was relieved that they survived ‘in a season which had already seen two driver deaths’

[@ChrisCreats]

Crazy to think Rubén’s Barricello was racing when Sena was

[@edisaacsson2722]

Not that crazy considering Rubens was very young when he started and had a massively long career.

[@bobfels5343]

10:00 aww why didnt you add the radio for Nico: "Im hanging here like a cow" lol

[@45oldies10]

Italian GP 2000 pile-up, one marshall got killed due to a flying wheel from one of the cars. Don't downgrade any information by saying that only the drivers survived with no injuries, any people around involved in these crashes are as importend as the drivers themselves and should be mentioned.

[@jonasbygden]

You have a bit of trouble separating Gerhard Berger and Riccardo Patrese in the crash, Patrese was Mansell's team mate in Williams and he hit Berger's McLaren - you actually have that correct at impact, then you back to talk about Berger climbing out of the destroyed Williams again...

[@Conan997]

2000 Italian grand prix there is a fatality, a flag Marshall was hit by a tire coming off the yellow Jordan car.

[@duchenne_md6736]

You missed the Martin Donnelly crash. From how severe looking this crash was he survived.

[@RacersReverie]

we'll make sure to add that in the next one we make!

[@jasongreen9329]

I still have a mental image of his legs

[@JeffSherlock]

Yes, that was terrible.

[@tomastoth4018]

A note to the 2000 Italian GP: Trulli and de la Rosa escaped their crashes unharmed, however, a flying debris (i think it was the front right tyre from the Arrows), hit and killed a 33-yo track marshall Paolo Ghislimberti, a then father-of-two. I'd also add the Irishman, Martin Donelly's crash to the list from 1990 Spanish GP..

[@giulianomartinusso8053]

17:50 Burti lost his memory for a while after that crash, even talking to Burti during the following days. Barrichello slept on the hospital for days until Luciano's family arrives. After the recovery, he told Rubens "I can't believe that you didn't went to see me in the hospital!"

[@tobihaifisch7558]

2:10 Gerhard Berger ???!!! In the FW14??? You are literally mixing him up with Patrese!

Webber's car was an illiterate Los Angeles rapper?

[@michaelwarren1235]

The most spectacular crash in motorsports has to be the flying Mercedes at LeMans. I know this is not F1, but that car reached an altitude of about 30 feet before it flew off track and into the woods!

[@PanAm747Clipper]

ima name all pileups in f1 i can remember: Melbourne 23, Sileverstone 22, Jeddah 21, Mugello 20, Hockenheim 2019 (whole race was a pileup), Spa 18, Singapore 17, Sochi 16, Sileverstone 15, Sileverstone 14 and some more

[@Flo-y04]

I woud say the niki lauda crash or the romain Großjean crash are missing in this list but good vidio

[@vincentsouchaud6717]

2:38 Because Berger decided to dive into the pits all of a sudden. The "two wheels" were ripped off Patrese's car, not off Berger's Ferrari.

[@tobihaifisch7558]

23:24 This would've been the perfect spot to add in the infamous high-speed flip, that Christian Fittipaldi and P.-L. Martini caused at Monza (right after this very corner!) in 1993.

[@Zoe-u1r]

Video's like this are proof that Formula 1 will never EVER be 100% safe regardless of the safety measures taken.

[@callumcjham4478]

24:48 - Also remember that this crash was a week after Hubert lost his life at Spa, a crazy impact

[@tobihaifisch7558]

As an old Jordan fan this was a sad reminder of how often they crashed out even when it wasn't their fault.

Imola 94 truly one if not THE darkest weekend in f1 history, weekend was from april 29th to May 1st… April 29th: Barichello, April 30th: Ratzenberger, May 1st (my birthday btw), JJ Lehto and Lamy as well as Ayrton

[@edwardacallender]

In the lap 1 pile up at the 2000 Italian GP, no drivers were injured as stated but a marshall was killed when he was hit by the wheel that flew from the Jordan car.

[@ericmcmanus5179]

You forgot to mention that the imola 1994 crash left a fan in the crowd dead after the tire flew over the wall and into the crowd. That was not a "non-fatal crash". A lot of people forget that 3 people died that weekend in 1994. Not just 2 drivers.

[@belleice1943]

These races look good, but I hate to see anybody get really hurt or get killed. Stay safe, everybody!

[@hugoagogo9435]

I don’t remember Gerhard Berger driving a Williams and hitting Gerhard Berger who was in a Mclaren.

I would replace few with Grosjean 2020 fireball crash, '98 pile-up at spa and Bottas-Russel crash at Imola '21

[@thecentralscrutinizer304]

Japan Grand Prix (at Fuji) 1977. Ronnie Peterson's Tyrrell P34 and Gilles Villeneuve crashed out of turn 1 on lap 6. Gilles mangled and destroyed his Ferrari- He lived but a marshall and photographer were killed while standing in a restricted area. Several others were injured.

[@KNETTWERX]

As much safety put into these cars over the years, I am surprised they don’t use the “safer barriers” like all the super speedways in the US use. Don’t get me wrong, the Halo and wheel tethers are great additions, however there is a limit on what can be added to the car.

[@iej7663]

Safer barriers are used extensively in f1. Most of these are prior to safer barriers

[@Adz907]

How have you not put Grosjeans crash here? The fact he survived that is a minor miracle. He was sat in a completely on fire car that has spkit totally in half following a 67+G impact with the wall at 130mph+ but hulkenburg rolling a few times at 10 mph is? I really think you should do some research before you make videos mate. Niki Laudas crash in 1976 as well?

[@FrogGamer1018]

Fr

[@ianwoods8593]

At 2:56 ish you say Berger not Patrese! Many mistakes, as Kubica secondly hit an Armco barrier! Rubens hit outside curb not apex! Get it right please!

[@45oldies10]

Ripped two wheels of bergers car? You mean, ripped 2 wheels of patrese his car.

[@iej7663]

No the brundle verstappen crash was prior to imola fatalities. Fairly easy to get right

[@ernestomartinez4090]

Patrese's name is Riccardo with two "c" not Ricardo.

[@stephenullman4534]

Peroni achieved his pilots license. Great job, but the landing needs a little work.

[@NomadUniverse]

How have you not included Grosjean's crash????????????

[@2colossery]

I dont know what was so heavy about Schumachers crash in Saudi. Pretty standard crash, noting serious and the speed scrubbed off all the way down the barrier.

[@waylanderdeathrider]

For me the most non fatal F1 crash is Mikka Hakkinen crash at Adelaide at the end of 1995 season. Dr Sid Watkins saved Hakkinen life with a tracheotomy on the ground next to the car !

[@olivertunnah3987]

So you include Hulkenburg's pretty tame crash by F1 standards but not Grosjean's car splitting barrier puncturing crash at Bahrain? I agree with the rest but this decision is pretty strange.

[@cpowellwx]

"non-fatal f1 crashes" except a marshal died with the multi-car pile-up at Imola. the only thing that appears more than the word "insane" in this video is Grosjean (surprise, surprise)

[@MSalt69]

Just give us the footage without all the talking!

[@daiiawn1483]

Brazil 94 'In a season that had already claimed 2 drivers lives' check the meaning of already! One of them is literally in the stills used

[@johnandre2962]

No 1950s or 1960s? Those were some of the worst. No Grosjean? The video should be "20 F1 Crashes".

[@-protected-7524]

The first accident you are saying he went head first colliding with another car, while the video shows its the opposite, car spun half way around and the back side of the car hit the other driver..

[@PoSiTiVeLyGlAd]

Dude there's some serious typos here, proof read your stuff 😀

[@edisaacsson2722]

Please research your subject matter - by second clip I'm turning it off due to "Heidberg", "lap 1", Berger in a Williams and Mclaren and, and... no. Just no.

[@45oldies10]

The 1994 Imola start crash had no wheels flying into the crowd, one wheel hit a photographer wich was on the roof and killed him.

[@45oldies10]

One of the worst non-fatal must have been Niki Lauda's 1976 Nürburgring crash wich although badly burned he returned to the grid after missing a few races.

[@allandavis8201]

Number one clip, Heidfeld went into Sato backwards not head first, if he had hit Sato head on I don’t think that one or both would have survived. I can’t believe that nobody was injured by the Jochen Mass crash, maybe the drivers didn’t sustain major injuries but they sure as hell would have been battered and bruised, and if no spectators were not injured by all that debris flying into them I will eat my hat.

[@RoBertino-g6y]

Nice selection - BUT!!!! EVER??? Where is collision of Oliver and Ickx 1970 (Spain)? Arthuro Merzario 1974 (Spain)? Lauda and Pironi 1979 (Monaco)? Arnoux 1982 (Holland)? De Cesaris 1985 (Austria)? P. Alliot 1988 (Mexico)? Warwick 1990 (Monza) and 1993 (Hockenheimring)? Wendlinger 1994 (Monaco)? That is only very very very simple list made in my mind. And one note - GP Italy 2000 was unfortunately fatal, because of death racing marshall Paolo Ghislimberti (R.I.P.)

[@thetruthseeker8841]

where's Grosjean's crash at Bahrain ? Where's Guanyu Zhou at Silverstone ? Rubens Barrichello's at Imola ? Where's Mark Webbers 360 flip ? Nikki Lauda Nurburgring ? Come on. Hulkenberg crash was ok. Nobody expected anything bad.

[@jimtharp5375]

Exhilarating side by side racing o doubt it lol

[@darkfox2076]

I don't know how you can have Berger crashing into Berger??? I think you mean Ricardo Patraise

[@NomadUniverse]

You say luckily for Hulkenberg the halo was there...I say he's lucky the car didn't erupt in flames like Romain's crash, the halo would have been his death. It almost killed Grosjean too, had his car penetrated the barrier a few inches less, he'd have been stuck too. Halo is a bandaid for bigger problems in F1. The only driver it has definitely saved is Romain, and only through sheer luck. Things like eliminating the old tech steel barriers and removing sausage kerbs would go a lot further as far as improving safety and racing.

[@kurtisduke2685]

The Austririchring has only 8 corners the first crash shown was at turn 2.

[@iej7663]

20.24 was a fatal accident and you said these were non fatal crashes. Is a marshal not a human life. Poor

Excuse me, need to check you right there....Formula 1 does NOT have the fastest race cars on the planet. That belongs solely to NHRA Top Fuel Funny Cars and Dragsters. 1/4 mile, 300+mph. Granted, they don't turn, but it's still a race.
