  • Safety standards have improved since the first World Championship Grand Prix at Silverstone in 1950, where there was no medical back-up or safety measures in case of an accident.
    It was not until the 1960s these were first introduced, as helmets and overalls became mandatory and the FIA assumed responsibility for safety at the circuits. Steps were taken to improve the safety of the Formula One car in the 1970s; the cockpit opening was enlarged allowing the driver to escape more quickly in the event of an accident and outside mirrors became mandatory.
    The 1980s saw further improvement in the structure of the Formula One car, with the monocoque being made out of carbon fibre instead of aluminium, increasing protection upon impact. Following the death of Ayrton Senna in 1994, a number of measures were introduced in an attempt to slow the cars down, including bodywork aerodynamic limitations, a pit lane speed limit and temporary circuit modifications such as extra chicanes. Grooved tyres were introduced in 1998 instead of racing slick tyres to reduce cornering speed.[8] Safety measures continued to be introduced into the 21st century, with a number of circuits having their configuration changed to improve driver safety.
    The Indianapolis Motor Speedway has seen the most fatalities; seven drivers have died there during the time that the Indianapolis 500 formed part of the world championship. Fifteen drivers died in the 1950s; fourteen in the 1960s; twelve in the 1970s; four in the 1980s and two in the 1990s. Following the deaths of Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna at Imola on consecutive days in 1994, no driver died during world championship events for more than 20 years until Jules Bianchi's death in 2015, from injuries sustained during the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix. Three drivers died in the intervening years while driving former Formula One cars (two from the 1960s, one from the 1990s) in vintage racing and other events not associated with World Championship Grands Prix. Two Formula One Champions have died while racing or practising in Formula One, Jochen Rindt in 1970, and Senna in 1994. Rindt is the only driver to have won the championship posthumously.
    Drivers that are in this list include: Chet Miller, Onofre Marimón, Manny Ayulo, Bill Vukovich, Keith Andrews,
    Pat O'Connor, Luigi Musso, Peter Collins, Stuart Lewis-Evans, Jerry Unser Jr., Chris Bristow, Alan Stacey, Wolfgang von Trips, Carel Godin de Beaufort, John Taylor, Lorenzo Bandini, Jo Schlesser , Gerhard Mitter,
    Piers Courage, Jochen Rindt, Roger Williamson,François Cevert, Peter Revson, Helmuth Koinigg, Tom Pryce, Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve,
    Riccardo Paletti, Roland Ratzenberger, Ayrton Senna, Jules Bianchi

    Riccardo Paletti never had the chance to prove himself how good he could be (he died in his second F1 race), but many people don't know that he was an ABSOLUTE PIONEER when it comes to consider F1 a serious athletic sport. He was one of the very few (maybe the only one) to constantly check his body and heart with EKG and other monitors, do intensive workout and have a healthy diet.
    He wanted to prove that a driver should be in the best shape possible, mentally and physically. Nowadays, every driver understand this, but back in the day having unhealthy lives and smoke cigarettes everyday was the life of an average F1 driver and therefore, considered "cool".
    That's why I respect Paletti so much. He didn't stay for long and died in such a horrible way (you can watch some footage here on YT), but he inspired other teams to start training their drivers, considering it an important part to have a chance for a championship. The man + machine duo improved like never before. R.I.P Riccardo Paletti.

    One thing its worth mentioning about Donahue is that he actually walked away from his crash and even felt okay, but he had a severe brain injury, which got worse that day and claimed his life days later.
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but Donahue's death is part of the reason why drivers nowadays are mandated to go through medical check-ups after sustaining a certain amount of g forces in an impact, even if the driver claims to be fine.

      @@viktorjansson5370 Of the Americans _not_ to win a world championship, I rate Peter Revson the best, or at least the equal of Dan Gurney. In his first full season in F1, in 1973, he won two races for McLaren. He finished a remarkable fifth in the WDC in 1972, after competing in only 75% of the season. Or was it so remarkable...? I don't know why he switched to Shadow, other than (possibly) because they were an American team. I think it was a mistake and not just because of his crash. Oh well... Watch the replay of his win in the 1973 British Grand Prix. It was an exceptionally good drive from a man who had relatively little time in F1. He was 'on it' all the way. His passing manoeuvres were clean, decisive and sure footed. No messing about. And he was quick. IMHO, he was one of the best and fitted in very well with the F1 circuit, something few American drivers have been able to do.
      His brother Douglas was also killed in a racing accident. Their father, Martin Revson, died in 2016 at the age of 105.
      But Revson was 35 and his opportunities were going to be comparatively short. Starting his F1 career at 37, Donahue would have had even fewer opportunities, even driving for an American team. Unfortunately, Roger Penske pulled out of F1 just as the team was showing potential.

    You're missing three important talented drivers:
    Jo Siffert at Brands Hatch in 1971 during a Rothmans Championship Victory Race, he crashed after he suffered a left front suspension failure inflicted by a slight contact with Ronnie Peterson during the early laps of the race, on 15th lap Siffert lost control hits the embankment and summersaults then his car erupted in flames, Siffert didn't have any injuries but succumbed to toxic inhalation after being trap in his burning P160 chassis.
    Patrick Depailler at Hockenheim 1980. Depailler was killed while testing his new Alfa Romeo 179B when it's rear suspension collapsed approaching the high speed Ostkurve, Depailler slammed into the Armco barrier sideways then landed upside down, the Frenchman suffered a fatal head injuries.
    Elio De Angelis at Paul Ricard Circuit Le Castellet 1986. De Angelis was killed while testing his Brabham-BMW BT55 approaching the extremely fast turn of Paul Ricard Circuit his rear wing detached whilst doing more than 175mph De Angelis's BT55 suddenly reacted from the loss of downforce he went airborne and landed into the barriers then burst into flames De Angelis also didn't suffered any injuries but was succumbed to suffocation.

In fact this was the case of Denny Hulme too, but he was long retired from F-1 when it happened (differently from these others). There are others who lost their lives driving a F-1 car but not running for official FIA F-1 teams like Brian McGuire, John Dawson-Damer, Fritz Glatz, Denis Welch and David Ferrer. There were others who died as a consequence of injuries suffered on accidents driving F-1 cars but not immediately after the accident, like Maria de Villota (and even Niki Lauda could be listed here). And there were F-1 drivers who lost their lives on accidents which happened on roads or streets like Mike Hawthorn (then the F-1 champion), Mike Hailwood, Andrea de Cesaris, Clay Regazzoni. There are F-1 drivers who lost their lives on airplane accidents, like Graham Hill and José Carlos Pace. Right now there are three well-known cases of ex-F1 drivers who suffered almost fatal injuries on accidents (out of a F-1 event), but are still alive... Nelson Piquet, Alex Zanardi and Michael Schumacher, the last two requiring permanent and intensive medical care.

    For fans of F1 trivia, some may not know the eerie coincidences about America's only two F1 World Champions.
    In 1961 at Monza, two Ferrari teammates were in contention for the championship, Phil Hill and Wolfgang von Trips. During the race, von Trips crashed and died, essentially guaranteeing that Hill would win the title.
    In 1978 at Monza, two Lotus teammates were in contention for the championship, Mario Andretti and Ronnie Peterson. During the race, Peterson crashed and died of his injuries within days, essentially guaranteeing that Andretti would win the title.
    The races at Monza in 1961 and 1978 were both held on September 10.

    Roger Williamson - died after his car overturned and burst into flames. The saddest thing about his crash, he died within (?) 25 metres (it was just around the next corner) of a fire truck which the marshals refused to move because they didn't want to drive backwards on the track. That has always stuck with me.

      And to be honest was the right call. In these days flags meant nothing. The Safety Car wouldn't even be introduced for another 20 years.
      You can't really have a vehicle for any reason going backwards along the track whilst cars are at racing speed. Even today recovery vehicles always go in the direction of the track. The medical car is almost always going to be the first vehicle at the accident scene if its required, and they have to drive the track in the direction of flow

      They were probably trying to get Americans more interested in the World Championship (sound familiar? 70 years later they're still trying). The effort failed because the European teams weren't willing to travel to the US for the race, so they just skipped it. The US didn't have an actual GP until, I believe, 1959. Interestingly, right after the Indy 500 was eliminated as a points paying GP race, some Europeans did get interested (Brabham, Clark, Chapman) because of the prize money. They earned big pay days for their success, but no points.
