If you haven't seen it, check out the BBC Documentary called "Grand Prix: The Killer Years".

Quote:
In the 60s and early 70s it was common for Grand Prix drivers to be killed while racing, often televised for millions to see. Mechanical failure, lethal track design, fire and incompetence snuffed out dozens of young drivers. They had become almost expendable as eager young wannabes queued up at the top teams' gates waiting to take their place.

This is the story of when Grand Prix was out of control.
BBC Four - Grand Prix: The Killer Years

Just goes to show how far F1 safety (and motor racing in general) has come.

That's the docco I was referring to when we spoke at RAC, Rusty. Brutal spot back then in regards to safety. Disgusting really. Look how far we've come with safety. And it's a good thing too with Grosjean about!!
