New track, talk about dusty! Everyone spinning off during practice, including schuey. Kimi blew up during practice, didn't even bother going for qualifying (he'd be knocked down 10 spots anyways). Results were Ferrari 1-2, Williams BMW 3-4, BAR Honda 5-6. Mclaren's 10th (coultard) I believe. They're really sucking ass this year...
On a more serious note, F1 decade was on this morning too... and finally, they came up to the San Marino GP of 1994. It's almost been 10 years since this event, where the great Senna perished during the race, but it feels like it was just yesterday. I remember watching the race live 10 years ago 5:30am on May 1st at my ex-gf's, watched as the safety car came out on lap one after a start line crash, then once the safety car peeled off, watched from Schuey's camera angle as senna went off, parts flew everywhere, then moved his head slightly, then nothing. Turns out the wheel that went flying (along with suspension pieces) pierced through his helmet when it came off, killing him instantly. The decision for the track medics to say that he was in a coma was questioned for a long time... Senna was clearly braindead at the track. F1 rules state that if there's a death during the race, the race would stop. By saying he was in a coma, the race would be allowed to continue, where eventually schumacher won the race. There was no news after the race, and by the time I woke up at 3pm, Senna was declared dead. The end of a racing legend. I grew up watching senna own the tracks, and he was the one that really got me interested in F1 with his amazing driving, unbelievable qualifying skills, and the on/off track drama. I wish I still had the original race tape that I recorded that morning, the F1 Decade was a cut down show that was only 1 hour long. The tape that I had was nearly 3 hours long, including the trackside work on Senna for nearly 40 mins.
Definately brought back a lot of sad memories.
