Tamburello is hella dangerous. No run off areas there that meet modern requirements. I feel the aqua minerali is good with the change, but you cant overtake there anymore.

@@axuaxu1570 true, the best i can think of is curva grande, but this is a corner where you have to accelerate into. Senna was travelling 305km/h in tamburello during his crash. Curva grande, takes the apex at about 200km/h, giving plenty of time to slow down, and also with Safer barriers. Paraboilca is probably the most dangerous but ita padded and has a massive run off area.

Just bring the Tamburello wall right up next to the track. This completely eliminates any crash angle and we can have old Tamburello back. Probably can do the same with Villenueve. And modern materials means we can have those soft walls aswell

@victorleoncio10793 ай бұрын
Umm... simply no. The sentimental scars are too great to ever have this section of track go back to what it was pre-1994. Not just because of Senna and Ratzenberger, but because of Piquet, Berger and Alboreto, who also had huge shunts there. Even as safe as the cars are today, a crash going 200 mph through a turn (or even going straight) is still as scary as it was back then. There's still no guarantee drivers will come out of one uninjured, so there's no sense in risking it. Plus, as it is now, it'd be a flat out run all the way from Rivazza to Tosa, which would only add up to safety concerns.

@patrick_weiller3 ай бұрын
The cars crashing in there would end up bouncing out back to the track, that was the main reason that de circuit persisted with concrete walls and not a tire barrier (a stupid idea). Also there is a river behind Tamburello, so, no scape area to do there. I just wanted to that corner to be destroyed and the track just pass before it, but it’s just on the start of the track, so, no real deal options in here…
@VykronianF13 ай бұрын
Exactly many of the safety changes in the past are now redundant with how safe the cars are, driver protection, and barriers are now. Besides if Saudi and Baku’s last turn before the monster straight is safe, then so is the real Tamburello!

Imola was a great track but wasn't a classic GP race track (emphasis on the race element). The 1990 Berger/Mansell tussle was an exception, perhaps. Heck, de Angelis won the '85 event and took the lead in the championship without leading at any point during the race itself. Love that stat. Anyhoo, my layman's suggestion would be to tighten the Tamburello chicane and move the following straight over to the left and remove the Villeneuve chicane so there's a run to Tosa. Ratzenberger's horrible accident was a lack of run off and hitting the wall head-on at full pelt. That closing speed van be partly sorted by the previous chicane but giving an overtake opportunity like they did at Abu Dhabi (removythe chicane right before a hairpin). Also could Rivazza be turned into a longer and then harder braking zone? Might need fo buy the houses beyond for run off. Move variante alta back? Love Imola. But not the current track...

We have lost and won things. Obviously, we have lost Tamburello and Villeneuve-Tosa (we still have Tosa, luckily). But we have won the elimination of chicanes of Acque Minerali and Pits. Acque Minerali is again a great corner, lost during many years. Tosa, Acque and Rivazza are great corners. It is a pity the sucesion of anti-overtaking bland corners in the Tamburello zone. Ironically, the death of Senna was not related to the speed of the crash, but to an unfortunate circunstance. I think to remember Dr Sid Watkins (official F1 Dr at the time) said that Ayrton's body was almost perfect, without any single fracture. But, sadly, one of the arms of the right wheel had pierced his helmet and brain. Tamburello had been a dangerous corners for years, with notorious accidents (Piquet, Berger, Campos,...). So, the Senna's crash was not the rational reason to emasculate the track. It was a knee-jerk reaction by Mosley's FIA, due to multiple reasons (some of them very reasonable, others rather cynically commercial). Let's remember the ludicrous temporary chicanes that were incorporated in the next GPs... IMO, Tamburello can be saved using modern oval tracks walls and , perhaps, complementary decelaration measures. Also, modern cars have excessive grip, it is bad for racing and for the track themselves. Just ban those "stoopid" wings and you solve several problems with one step.

The original Tamburello was basically the same as Curva Grande (Turn 3, after the first chicane) in Monza, but obviously in the opposite direction. All it needed was a resurface, as it was way too bumpy for such a fast corner. Curva Grande never had any major accidents, Tamburello shouldn't have had either.
