Default Re: Stefan Bellof´s fatal crash

Yeah, he did cause his own death. The real question to ask though, is how many times he had tried similarly risky moves and gotten away with them. Seems to me that guys like him have to take those risks, or they end up being just another racer. If he didn't have the go for broke attitude we probably wouldn't remember him today. Problem is it only took one mistake back in those days before cars got safer...

On a given day, a given circumstance, you think you have a limit. And so you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further. With your mind power, your determination, your instinct, and the experience as well, you can fly very high. -Ayrton Senna
