I still laugh when I think about Zonta/Villenueve saying "yeah I can take Eau Rouge flat" before crashing, and then his teammate went and said "I can do that too lol watch"
They had a bet, but what if one of those two or both did it flat out? Even the big teams like Ferrari and McLaren couldn't do that in the year they tried
A lot of luck involved. The last hit that turned the on car upside down. If that hit is right at the side of the cockpit we have a different outcome. The hit was at the back and that saved her
2:50 That's the main problem with this f***ing asphalt run-off. Drivers just keep their foot down and think they can somehow drive around the wreck in front of them. This is what ultimately killed Hubert. It didn't happen in the old days with the gravel trap. Bring the gravel back, and they'll learn to use their brakes again. They may still hit something, but when they do, it'll be at safer speeds.
@10:28 what the hell are those media people doing there?! As a marshal, I know we have to give the media folks some freedom to roam, but we would not let them stand directly on one of the most dangerous spots of the circuit... If I was marshaling there, they would have been told to stop being so bloody suicidal and move on... So yeah, big hint to the press guys, if the marshals refuse to stand there, don't stand there yourselves...
They gravel trap seams more dangerous for individual shunts but the tarmac is more dangerous for collective shunts as its spits cars back onto the track quite often.
We can add Renger Van de Zande's crash in the Cadillac Hypercar from the 6 hours of spa this year.. That one was scary too. lost it and nuked the front end
8:59 someone find this dude and immediately hire him as your new camera man! That level of dedication and cojones to get 'the shot' only comes around once in a lifetime.

Drivers say collectively: "Spa Francorchamps is the best and most beautiful track in the world and Eau Rouge and Radillion the most beautiful, challenging corner in the Universe". Those drivers want to go full throttle, even bets between drivers who is chicken to go not full throttle. So basically is the corner/track not the problem but the drivers. The want to go full speed and forget to release the gas pedal or even brake sometimes.
@@koreysamuel917 Thinking like that is why so many great tracks have been either abandoned or outright destroyed in favor of stop and go monstrosities like COTA.
The gravel traps they used to have kept the cars from bouncing back into the track. Where, as we all know, is where the recent tragedies occurred, from cars in the firing line of full speed cars
Sono contrario,x principio,alle vie di fuga attuali, dove c'è più pista all'esterno che circuito stesso, ma se c'è un posto dove è più che giusto avere ampio spazio e, soprattutto, tanto asfalto, è proprio a Spa tra l'eau rouge ed il radillion.. anche se, con una dinamica maledetta, non servì a salvare la vita del povero hubert auriol..🙏
Concordo, All'eau rouge e daidillon è giusto che ci sia asfalto come in molte altre curve pericolose. Il fuoripista di adesso serve solo a dare penalità assurde ai piloti, che sanno che non c'è erba o ghiaia quindi rischiano di più e prendono penalità per un centimetro oltre il consentito. Apprezzo la foto del tuo profilo. Grande Gilles
@@motorsportchaos grazie Motorsport!!! sono ammalato di motori dal lontano 76..e ho avuto la fortuna di vederlo correre..e piangere dalla gioia e dal dolore, quando l 8 maggio 82,se ne andò..🙏❤️
They’ll have to change this sector dramatically otherwise one day soon we’ll have another “Senna” magnitude death and people will be asking why something wasn’t done sooner…
I still laugh when I think about Zonta/Villenueve saying "yeah I can take Eau Rouge flat" before crashing, and then his teammate went and said "I can do that too lol watch"
Yep... They dared eachother to do it, both attempted it, both got wrecked. Not a happy team boss that weekend...
@@killakanzgaming Both cars returned to the pits in kit form. It was not a good weekend for the mechanics either.
They had a bet, but what if one of those two or both did it flat out? Even the big teams like Ferrari and McLaren couldn't do that in the year they tried
And afterwords telling it was his best crash ever
This is one of the most iconic corners in Motorsport yet we somehow miss half of these crashes
Ist manchmal auch besser das wir den Tod nicht direkt sehen
9:34 is still one of the most violent crashes I have ever seen.
oh yes. he fliying in the forrest
1:27 Was violent too!
@zlover7777 Seriously though. Imagine getting your helmet rode over by 4 formula cars.
I acctually know the guy personnaly thats jack aitken we where school mates
That last vintage crash was insane. So dramatic.
11:55 crazy that the driver survived that crash, especially in that era of racing
who was it? and how is it even possible that he survived that?
@@Homer0Simpson brazillian driver christian heins, 1959
The W Series crash was insane. I've never seen a crash with so many cars just keep piling in after the initial crash.
Well of course. Women love to gossip so they immediately all got together for a catch up.
@@chrisb8075 corny

In Brazil we say "One Maria always goes with the others"

Hubert dying was pure luck, two cars going off the same time same way hitting the worst part of the car
@@mikko3 Of which also nearly happens in at least a dozen of them in this video. It's pure luck this track hasn't been killing yearly
A problem with a gravel trap in that area is that it increases the risk of flipping an out of control car. Just look at the BARs in 1999.
@@diegoh6131 They're both alive and well. Hubert isn't.
9:27 i've never seen this one
I'm glad Aitken and Visser's life was saved.
We have lost Hubert and dilano in the same corner 😢 rip ❤

9:33 has to be fatal
actually the driver survived
@@bruh6474 amazing

4:18 Doctors found that Zanardi was 1" or 3cm taller after that terrible accident. Seriously!
shit sign me up
The last one. WOW!!!
I wonder who that was. Looked like they miraculously survived!
This is why Eau Rouge and Radillon were a great idea
10:00 just sitting there wide open to oncoming,accelerating traffic. That has to be the most dangerous area in any racing. 😬
The impact was incredibly brutal. He decelerated straight to zero.
Welcome back and great video
They gravel trap seams more dangerous for individual shunts but the tarmac is more dangerous for collective shunts as its spits cars back onto the track quite often.
idk why but that Zonta crash is so iconic to me. I think of that one first when it comes to Eua Rouge crashes, rather than e.g. Bellof.
8:26 flyhackers be like
We can add Renger Van de Zande's crash in the Cadillac Hypercar from the 6 hours of spa this year.. That one was scary too. lost it and nuked the front end
AHubert, DVan 'T Hoff, RIP
In my opinion they must extend the runoff area of Raidillon by building a bridge like thing over the cliff.
8:59 someone find this dude and immediately hire him as your new camera man! That level of dedication and cojones to get 'the shot' only comes around once in a lifetime.
As a purist, I didn't like the idea of the halo but you can't watch this without wincing now with so many close calls there are
If I ever make it to this track... I'm going to conquer that turn; Wish me luck! 😮
53...le nombre de vie arrachées sur spa en presque 100ans, dont 4 non courreurs, et on compte pas les bléssés.
1:26 THANK GOD THE HALO WAS INSTALLED BY THEN
Looks like the gravel prevent cars from going back into the track… which lately is been the main reason for troubles and tremendous consequences
El gran gran problema que tienen estas curvas es que si un auto se va contra las barreras este es inmediatamente regresado a la pista, no se si es que hay una pendiente o que pero vuelve al lugar por donde vienen los otros autos y eso a costado muchas vidas, hay que rediseñar esas protecciones de modo que realmente contengan los autos

The big problem that these curves have is that if a car goes against the barriers, it is immediately returned to the track, I don't know if there is a slope or what, but it returns to the place where the other cars are coming and that to the side many lives, you have to redesign those protections so that they actually contain the cars

buena
todos los accidentes graves han sido por el robote del lado derecho
They need a 5ft wall on both sides of the Spa Accident Spot to keep the vehicles on the track line..
diese Kurve ist brutal selbst schon gefahren
This is so paintful to watch, i don't know how watch full video of big impact?

Track is definitely the problem sorry. It’s only still allowed cos of when it was built and the heritage it has.
@@koreysamuel917 sorry, we disagree and also a lot of nonsense. The drivers can slow down instead of trying t take every corner full speed.

Ever crashes is big one
What crash is 9:27?

In Erinnerung an Stephan Beloff
Rip Antuah Hubert
Gravel does a lot better job in preventing the car bouncing back on track
This circuit from 🇧🇪, because all people in this world already know. But unfortunately came into Eau Rouge always hugely crashed
Corner looks so much safer with the gravel instead of tarmac run off

They should do somlething about Eau Rouge,it's just too dangerous. Far too many accidents and fatalities on that cornered uphill !
Snowflake ! They have already modified it for the "safety" of people who don't know how to drive.
Leave our track alone.
So low-res, just blobs of color. What's the point
