It's a tough pill to swallow, you know?

Yeah.

Not just died, died because of him.

And he's like just celebrating like it's the end of whatever race, any other race, you know?

He never claimed responsibility for it.

He would never take accountability.

And two years after that, he died in a car wreck when he was racing a friend.

And when he overtook the friend, that was when he spun out and died.

He was also driving a Jaguar.

So his death was quite ironic.

I say hats off to the Mercedes team, because even though the race continued, they withdrew.

And they waited until the emergency crews had done their thing and cleared out.

And they packed up and they withdrew from the race at 1 a.m.

And they stopped racing all the way until the 1980s because of that incident.

Yeah.

I mean, it really shook up the industry, obviously, and the sport.

There were official inquiries, obviously.

Everyone was absolved.

No one, like, had to take the fall or anything like that.

They said, you know, we didn't have the right safety measures.
