OK, here's another....this one I also remember seeing live on TV as well. It’s Martin Brundle in the inaugural Melbourne GP (after 11 wonderful years in Adelaide). It’s described somewhere as the worst F1 crash in which the driver survived.




Brundle certainly did survive, “returning to the pit lane to argue his way into his spare car for the restart of the race, which was red-flagged in the wake of his car-destroying aerial acrobatics.” (from SMH)


Here it is on youtube

Anyone got any other spectacular “walk away” crashes?
Cheers,
Glen
