Amen to that

Small point but I think Rolad died the day before Ayrton. And the day before that, Rubens was in the most spectacular of the 3 big crashes that day and walked away from it.

I believe it is also a week ago that it was the anniversary of Michele Alboreto death. And of course one week to the anniversary of the passing of Gilles.

RIP to all the fallen heros.

There is another thread remembering Ayrton Senna, so I am going to lock this one to keep everything in one place.
