Imola '94: F1's blackest weekend (Part 2)
And Colossally That's History! - A podcast by The Race Media - Thursdays
Categories:
Matt Bishop (journalist, editor, novelist and PR) and Richard Williams (journalist, author and broadcaster) are here to reappraise the past - and they'd love to have you along for the ride! In the second part of our three-episode mini series, marking the 30th anniversary of the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix at Imola, Matt and Richard take a chronological look at the events of F1's so-called blackest weekend, when both Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna were killed in action. It's been described as a weekend 'when God turned his back', and with good reason, with a series of terrible accidents unfolding one after the other over a period of three days. With personal reminiscences, Matt and Richard tell the story of what happened and how F1 came to lose two much loved drivers in consecutive days. Plus, Richard poignantly shares his reflections on attending Senna's intense, emotional funeral in Sao Paulo. Next time: Matt and Richard discuss the aftermath and lasting legacy of Imola '94.
