Wasn’t Senna the last fatality in F-1?
20 years ago.
Safety has improved dramatically but it can never be 100%. When I was young back in the 60s and 70s the drumbeat of deaths was fairly constant. I was even at a race where a racer died. It was sickening to those of us who enjoyed the sport. Before my time but the 55 Le Mans crash which took out 80 spectators must have been the absolute worst.
