That is the absolute Worst angle you can hit a barrier... Drivers side, directly flush with the armco. To make matters worse the wet track threw the car in there at nearly unabated speed. Just SO unlucky. Hitting that wall any other way would have presumably saved his life. RIP
Actually he didnt hit the barrier with driverside first. But actually with passengerside. There is better footage from the car who was driving behind the 2 cars (of which Allan Simonson was one). And it has the full crash on tape. This video here only shows part of it, basicly after it happend..
Brandon Ryan His heart was basically separated from his body due to the amount of G's. The sad bit is he said he was ok to the Marshall's because he still had the last bit of oxygen in his brain. A few seconds after that he was gone
IIRC, the conditions were horrible. It was cold and the tires were not getting up to temp. They'd do a few laps, tires would start to warm up, someone had an incident, go back to safety laps, and tires get cold again, making it prime for another safety incident.
Godspeed Allan Simonson. This video explains much. The track was wet which makes the curbs very slick. As Simonson accelerated on the curb he fish-tailed and over corrected which sent car into slide back over the curb and impact guardrail with no brake. Bad place for a mistake. The impact of the driver side pancaking the guardrail can be heard without any squealing of the tires. The Ferrari driver who spun in front of him didn't over correct and this ended up on the other side of the track. His position on the inside is maybe what caused Simonson to over correct to as to not lose into that stopped car that was just regaining speed. Even the best are susceptible to mechanical and fatal mistakes. RIP.
Interesting video because on all the footages from the track, we never saw the crash that happened juste a few seconds earlier. It's hard not to believe that this first crash surely had an impact on Allan's...
the track was damp and the Simonsen was wide in the turn to the outside of another car and caught some of the curbing that is painting in laytex which when wet is slick (this is a problem with the lines at the IMS during the 500 often) he immediately lost side grip and his momentum took him into a hydroplane slide flush with the drivers door side into Armco barrier that was fasted directly to trees..........the crush to the side impact of the car and drive was immediate with a violent recoil throwing the car back............when I saw it live they didn't catch any of this on Camera but I notice the roof was damaged which first made me think the car had been upside down..............however, when looking at the roof I saw no cosmetic damage to the paint on it but only the structural damage of the frame/chasiss/rollcage.......which told me that had to be a sideways hit on the drivers side so severe it would crash the cage area in such a manner and knew it was bad. ......................the G force and stop on the neck, brain, spinal column or the soft tissue of the heart any one of those areas is suspectable to a fatal injury with such an impact.........away wreak.....................need to eliminate the laytex type of painting on racing surfaces (even though they are highly reflective and easy to see) because when it is humid or cold they get slippery............notice that when you walk in tennis shoes in a parking lot on paint lines and you slip sometimes?................imagine a tire gripping for all its worth with a side bite in a turn and hitting that..............
jacopman actual impact is right rear corner On a desktop/laptop (no iPad or phone) and if content creator enabled frame-by-frame Go to time 1:16 and step through by tapping the “.” until time is 1:17 Count 19 taps, and you will see at the “M” in the first “Motorsport” banner, Allen Simonsens Aston strike the barrier. R.I.P. Mr. Simonsen.
He actually was over the curbing onto the blue-painted asphalt which is to the left (outside) of the racing line; the rain had just started and enough had fallen to make the painted asphalt slick. But Simonsen’s car turned right then snapped left slid all the way across the pavement (real wide at that point as it’s the area where the regular road and the Terte Rouge turn merge) and hit the Armco at the second tree (the “O” in the “FORZA” ad).
At Tertre Rouge it´s common to use the painted asphalt behind the curb as part of the racing line. At this stage of the race it started to rain and these painted areas are getting extremely slippery when they are wet.
Behind the barrier was a tree wich meant the barrier couldn't absorb the energy, it was all unleashed at once. He was conscious when marshalls got he him, but his heart stopped beating on the way to the medical center...
As the character Jean-Pierre Sarti said in the film Grand Prix, 'If you imagine, really imagine what it would be like to go into a tree at 150 miles per hour you would never get into a car in the first place.' The tree's been there a long time, it's going nowhere. RIP.
Watched the live broadcast as always when it happened. It really hit me when they announced his death later, to me the crash didn’t look that bad. Yes, the Aston was pretty bent but compared to the two Audi crashes the year before.....!?
He hit the barrier sideways and directly behind the barrier there was a tree, that's why the energy couldn't be absorbed, all the energy hit the car and him at once. The two Audi crashes might have looked scarier and worse but they really weren't, by rolling over the energy was absorbed over a longer period of time which is much much better than it being unleashed at once.
That metal guard rail tells how hard that impact was....it was bent in from the driver side hitting it so Allan absorbed all of the energy from that impact. The human body cannot take that sort of energy with a sudden stop. RIP Allan Simonsen
He died later due hidden brain damage. He remained concious after accident and seemed just shocked but suddelnly died in the medical centre. So the logo wasn`t last thing he saw.
that's not what happned. it wasnt even rainy. the curbes was freshly painted just before the race, he went over the curbes and started sliding, he steered the other way and suddenly the tyres got grip and he went right into the barrier. RIP (i was there aswell)
The Balder HD The barrier which there happened to exist the only f**king tree on the whole course beside the barrier which allan of course had to hit causing him to get injuried at all
Melvin Sikström until I saw this angle I couldn't understand why the wreck so violent. It looks like the barrier directed the force of the crash directly into the tree.
After this crash, they installed a double-layer tire wall where Simonsen hit. Basically an admission that there should have been one there in the first place. If a driver loses it on the exit there, they can hit hard at almost 90 degrees.
Many cars were losing grip and spinning at this turn. Allan's car also similar lost grip and spun but crashed it's rear-end into the barrier at a really high-speed as shown in this video. Lack of run-off area on the track and some lack of whiplash protection seem responsible for the intensity of the injuries. R.I.P. Sir...

@@ethanweeter2732 That shouldn't happen...albeit I can't imagine at what speed he lost control and at what speed he hit the tree behind the Armco.It's quite a weird accident imho,probably the impact angle made it fatal rather than the speed itself.Thanks for the infos.
I’m sure every single person in the paddock was like “hell ya let’s go racing”. And even though it’s THE La mans 24 hour, the ultimate test of man and machine, conditions that day caused something unacceptable. In reality, a shunt like that is driver error unfortunately. But there’s an error somewhere along the way in choices of materials, or timing, or any number of things one could dig up to place blame on. Obviously no one knew what or how something like that could have happened but a fatality none the less is unacceptable. And it saddens me. Every time a driver is killed it puts the world off from racing just a little bit more each time. Emissions and waste arguments are enough to deal with let alone the fact that no matter how save it is, it will still be one of the most dangerous activities on earth.
Actually he died because the car hit at the exact point were a tree was on the other side of the barrier, Which did it to a much worse impact that it should've been, If the tree wasn't there, He would have walked away, Probably completely unharmed.
Melvin Sikström Well, you know the houses on the long stretch, right? Ya, those. In fact, on the wikipedia, if you wiki up "Circuit de la Sarthe," you can see houses.
Race should have been red flagged due to the car location, debris, and driver side door being off. Plus the fact the one tree on the track that could be hit was hit. They cut the tree down under yellow I believe.
Most of the time, a car crashes and the driver walks away a little bit sore, even when the crashes are far more dramatic than Allan's. There was nothing about that video that would have led the fans watching to fear the worst, so I'll give the fans the benefit of the doubt.
Why do so many racing supporters cheer at crashes?....I noticed it for the first time in Assen although I've never seen it happen at UK races, very saddening especially in this case!
Gethin Davies This isn't a UK race and it's mostly the non spectacular crashes that get a cheer as its a light relief to the real life tragedy that like in this clip occasionally happen,it's similar to those people who laugh at slapstick comedy
Les commissaires de piste ont vraiment pas fait leur job.car il me semble après 3 ou 4 qui dérape il aurait dû bien avant signaler avec leur drapeau que cette portion du circuit était glissant.ce qui a jamais était le cas.resultat un mort qui a mes yeux aurait pu être éviter!!
On voit qu'il était sur un vibreur quand il a perdu le contrôle, je ne vois pas en quoi ce serait la faute de la piste. C'est une surface assez glissante et il suffisait juste qu'il accélère trop brusquement pour qu'il parte en tête à queue. C'est d'ailleurs ce qu'il s'est passé je pense.
Microteam, Gil Reed a raison. Le vibreur fait partie de la piste. Il était piégeux pour ceux qui ont mis les roues dessus. En ce sens, il aurait fallu mettre un drapeau de changement d'adhérence immédiatement après les deux glissades. Allan aurait sûrement ralenti en le voyant.
No, the start of the race in 2013 had just enough rain falling to wet everything; Simonsen's car apparently hit the painted area outside the kerbing at the left side of Terte Rouge, just before coming onto the Mulsanne Straight; it spun the car to the left and into the barrier where the "OR" in "FORZA" is, right at the second tree from the left. Had it been even four feet (about 1.1 meters) either left or right, Simonson might likely have survived as the armco barrier had a lot more give to it than at the tree.

Two spin outs and a fatal crash in 1m20s of filming. Scary
Jonathan Ferris Goes to show they need to once again revise that session and remove the bloody painted areas.
Baz828 What they should have done was never have trees right up against a barrier. How a driver never thought that was a safety issue is beyond me.

R.I.P. Mr. Simonsen.
I read a report by a doctor on racing related injuries and he said Simonsen impacted with “nearly a head-on trajectory.”
He actually was over the curbing onto the blue-painted asphalt which is to the left (outside) of the racing line; the rain had just started and enough had fallen to make the painted asphalt slick. But Simonsen’s car turned right then snapped left slid all the way across the pavement (real wide at that point as it’s the area where the regular road and the Terte Rouge turn merge) and hit the Armco at the second tree (the “O” in the “FORZA” ad).
In a 24 Hr race you need reflective paint, but the tree should not have been there. Whoever let that happen is guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
R.I.P crazy how a seemingly minor crash took his life.
Because the barrier was just infront of a tree, as he hit the barrier the barrier moved back into the tree so effectively he was hitting the tree.
was there oil on track? 2 spins and a crash all within 2mins not only that but the same corner?
At Tertre Rouge it´s common to use the painted asphalt behind the curb as part of the racing line. At this stage of the race it started to rain and these painted areas are getting extremely slippery when they are wet.
It had started to rain the fans were putting on rain gear,.
Its called a spin out good point anyways

What caused him too pas away, so sad rip Allan I remember watching him at Bathurst 12 hour he was a class above everyone
Behind the barrier was a tree wich meant the barrier couldn't absorb the energy, it was all unleashed at once. He was conscious when marshalls got he him, but his heart stopped beating on the way to the medical center...
@@gehbehinderterWerkssoldat Negligence killed him.
A large tree behind the Armco has been considered to be an integral part of the impact, causing an aortal separation in the driver's chest
As the character Jean-Pierre Sarti said in the film Grand Prix, 'If you imagine, really imagine what it would be like to go into a tree at 150 miles per hour you would never get into a car in the first place.' The tree's been there a long time, it's going nowhere. RIP.

No, the start of the race in 2013 had just enough rain falling to wet everything; Simonsen's car apparently hit the painted area outside the kerbing at the left side of Terte Rouge, just before coming onto the Mulsanne Straight; it spun the car to the left and into the barrier where the "OR" in "FORZA" is, right at the second tree from the left. Had it been even four feet (about 1.1 meters) either left or right, Simonson might likely have survived as the armco barrier had a lot more give to it than at the tree.
sadly that is the way with many fatal crashes where it is a matter of inches in most cases that make the difference between life and death
