    No ABS, no TCS, no sequential shifting gearboxes, no gear indicators, next to no cockpit safety, raced under even worse weather conditions. These are legends of F1. Dancing in the rain, Patrick Depailler RIP.

    • @lethalchocobo1886

      There's neither ABS nor TCS in the actual F1 cars, which are much faster and as difficult to drive in the rain. They got 8 now gears which can be downshifted up to 5-6 gears in a split second hence the indicator. As for safety and wet conditions, would you like to bring back the days where pilots were dying for fun? Plonker.

      @@lethalchocobo1886 I was making a comment on how dangerous the sport was in that time where there was almost no safety. I never said this should come back or that modern F1 isn't dangerous. Any pro motorsport is dangerous. Driving anywhere is dangerous. So don't just assume something and write a passive aggressive comment comparing modern F1 to F1 40 years ago. It was a different time. Back then Safety was not as big of a thing as ot is now but there also was not really as much understanding of high speed impact safety devices hence why at one point drivers wore goggles in a magnesium deathtrap 70 years ago. Think of Antoine Huberts F2 crash at Eau Rouge last year.
      My personal opinion not that it matters here: Vintage F1 is romantic and wild but time goes on and things develop and now we are here with Lewis Hamilton or Vettel racing the fastest cars on the planet and on some of the same circuits as Patrick Depailler like Monaco, Monza, Hockenheim...both F1 past and present would be awesome to watch but yes it is better if the sport does not have to lose their competitors due to safety problems. Modern F1 is a lot safer than the past but it is still very dangerous and people still do die but that is the risk a racing driver takes too.
      You call me a plonker for wanting f1 to be like this but you didn't actually realize the format of my comment. I was glorifying how F1 racers raced in terrible safety conditions and never was ever comparing it to modern F1 and I never said modern F1 wasn't dangerous either so your comment comes off as a blank passive aggressive statement. Whatever floats your F1 car pal.

      @@100hobbes It was Ligier that booted him in 1979, not Tyrrell. I always had a soft spot for Ligier but their treatment of Depailler will always be a black mark against them. Absolutely no sympathy especially considering it was looking at one point like he might have been wheelchair bound.
      The 1978 Tyrrell was a good chance for the championship at the start of the season. Coming out of Monaco he was leading the world championship, but then Lotus redefined the game with the 79 and his chance was gone. Such a shame because he was driving brilliantly.

      James Hunt once said this about Depailler: "Patrick Depailler ... well, I've no doubt that he had a death wish. Very pleasant bloke but I always thought he was barking mad... Why? Look at the way he lived his life," James said. "Riding motorbikes without a helmet, that sort of thing. Depailler seemed to need to find risk in everything."

    The man distroyed his left leg in an enduro motorcycle race just before he started with Tyrell. Won 1GP with Tyrell in Monaco. Then he crashed and broke his 2 legs flying a delta wing just after he started with Ligier and Ligier fired him. Won 1 GP with Ligier in Spain. Then he found a job at Alfa Romeo and finally died in F1 practice. Smoked a pack of unfiltered Gitanes everyday...
