Patrick Depaillier’s last ever Grand Prix, he was killed in testing at Hockenheim less than 3 weeks after this race
@ragaglia4 жыл бұрын
What a sad way to end a very good racing career, out of his last race because of a shit car that didn't do its driver justice. I think that hang gliding accident in 1979 eventually sealed Depaillier's fate

On 12.06.1980 my first son was born, and I named him Patrick... Only few weeks later the Hockenheim test from Alfa Romeo ended with his tragic accident in the Ostkurve... 🌈🏁 Salut Patrick ❤️🇨🇵💔

They also have problems with the people who have moved into the area. They complain about the noise. I think the other problem is that the track would need a lot more fun off areas and I'm not sure they have the land for that. I've only been to Brands Hatch a few times for the BTCC and Formula Ford festival. I think Russell Ingall was driving in one of he festivals so that shows it was a long time ago.

Anyways your point is well taken, with Rosburg & Mansell as being notable mentions, along with AJ, I was always intrigued with what I considered the ‘Boxer-Types’…. AJ, Mansell, Rosburg, and Rodriguez. They may have not been the most ‘absolute’ talented types, but once those mad bastards were within their rhythm, *there was no way in hell that they would be beaten.*

Modern overlay with a caption that says British Formula 1 Grand Prix is totally anachronistic. There was no such thing as Formula 1 Grand Prix or Formula 1 championship until 1981 when Formula One was established as a trademark. In 1980 it only denoted the class of cars that competed in a World Drivers' Championship but not the championship itself.

@@thethirdman225 I would agree, though Paddock hill bend was difficult to get a vantage on. Hailwood hill looking up was usually good and outside of Druid's looking from Graham Hill, I wish we'd had digital cameras back then. When the 935 porsches were in full flight you could get some great flameout shots. A 6hr sports car race gave plenty of opportunity for multiple vantage points.

Catch fencing was widely used in F1 in this era, the biggest worry was if a driver became trapped under the fence and the car catching fire as they did quite often back then. The wooden poles used to secure them were an issue as well with several drivers in lesser formulas being knocked unconsious by them.
