      @@drewgriffithsfm I'd like to add Zandvoort 1973, Roger Williamsson crashed and David Purley parked his car to help out, trying to flag down other drivers to help out, the other drivers thought that it was Davids car that was on fire and since there wasn't a red flag, they simply drove past the accident.
      If even 1 or 2 drivers had stopped, they could've maybe overturned Williamssons car and gotten him out since their suits were more fireproof than the marshalls.
      But instead they had to live with the fact that they drove past a man who was slowly suffocating to death, and they didn't find out until after he died.

    As a spectator of F1 since 1963, I can assure you this is certainly not the scariest day in F1 neither was Imola 1994 but they were tragic.
    Unfortunately I have watched multiple drivers burn to death and being decapitated. Cars flew off the track into the trees lining the circuit killing the driver and so on. No barriers back then.
    Today F1 is unbelievably safe, in the past Grosjean would most likely not have survived the initial impact let alone the fire. I will add all lives lost in sport are tragic, and to the various F1 influencers, please do not make tragedy a competition.

    A horrific crash and Romain survived. What if he was knocked unconscious from the 67G impact? Could he have been saved? Romain saved himself to a great degree, unbuckling his seat belt and getting out then assisted by race staff. It was a horrifying moment, a feeling of certain death and like a miracle he was alive escaping. The Halo’s biggest test for safety and great example it works. We have seen it work protecting driver heads and necks when cars fall on top of each other but this crash was extraordinary. Romain is alive due to the Halo. It probably would have saved Jules Bianchi.

    For my Dad and I, this was a normal Sunday morning for us. Every F1 weekend, we'd wake up on Race Day and cook our standard sunday breakfast, all the while watching the recorded F1 race on our DTVR. We always paused our cooking for the opening lap, and when this happened, my Dad was stunned, the first time I had ever seen him scared at a sporting event. We immediately shut off our appliances and watched in horror as the disaster went on. Waiting for Grosjean felt like an eternity, a time where, for the first time ever in my life, I thought I was going to see the death of an F1 driver; I was soon in tears. When he emerged, I thought I was going to collapse, I was so relieved. I hope i never see a crash like this EVER again. Racing is dangerous enough.

    That has got to be the most terrifying part of a slow death. Just finally accepting your fate, and just giving up.
    But at the same time; it would kind of be like this huge weight was lifted off of your shoulders. You no longer have to worry about the next rent, or the next race, or what you are going to do if you get fired.
    You are just at peace with the fact that this is your last moment on this planet.

    For me personally an accident like this was the reason I initially had reservations regarding the Halo.
    A driver trapped in his burning car unable to get out because the Halo blocked what little room he would have had to get out.
    After this race I realised, while this might be a possibility, there is also the possibility he wouldnt have any survival room without the Halo in the first place.

      The HALO is the thing that tearing the steel barrier and prevent serious damage for the helmet, if the helmet hit the steel barrier - Grosjean's head will be crush!!

      It didnt happen this time and I think if you ask anyone they would take instant death over being cooked alive over several minutes, but there will come a time when it does cause further injury or death.
      It amost trapped Hamilton in his car at Monza, Verstappen's rear wheel was very close to being cradled in the halo.

    Why did you use so many editing tricks to try and sensationalize what happened? The actual event was incredible as it was. There was no need to add all the goofy sound effects and reaction shots.

    I only clicked on this to dislike. Do some research. Plenty of far worse times in the sport’s history.
