Proces Ayrton Senna heropend...
Senna trial to reopen in Italy
Appeal process to be repeated after "errors" were made Senna died at Imola in 1994 when his Williams crashed out of the lead. Almost nine years after Ayrton Senna's death in the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, the Italian Supreme Court has cancelled the original verdict of the Appeals Court and reopened the inquiry into the cause of his fatal accident at Imola. In 1997, Italian state prosecutors accused Williams technical director Patrick Head and designer Adrian Newey with 'culpable homicide', claiming that steering column failure was to blame for Senna's accident. Frank Williams was also accused, but charges against him were dropped before the end of the year. After a long and drawn-out court process, both Head and Newey were acquitted in November 1999. They had been under threat of a one-year suspended jail sentence. Track officials who were accused at the same time were also acquitted. Williams had appealed against an initial court verdict that steering failure was to blame. The Appeal Court then ruled that a series of factors contributed to Senna's death, including the speed his Williams was travelling through the Tamburello corner, tyre wear and unevenness of the track surface. A subsequent prosecution appeal was thrown out after just two days in court, as Judge Francesco Mario Agnoli ruled that it had not proved its contention that steering failure was the cause. The Supreme Court accepted a petition from prosecutor Rinaldo Rosini yesterday (Monday), who claims errors were made in the original process, and the case will be reopened once again. No dates have been set, but it is unlikely to be heard this year. After the '99 verdict, Newey told AUTOSPORT: "The trial is one of the worst examples of the legal system behaving badly. In terms of helping to understand what happened at Imola and learning from the event, it has achieved nothing. It has helped no one in F1 – only the lawyers." The ruling also reopens the debate into whether Formula 1 should race in Italy under the possibility of such legal threats should a fatal accident occur in future. bron: autosport.com ------------------------- Ik weet niet goed wat ik hiervan moet denken...

pfffff zelfs al was de gebroken stuurkolom de oorzaak ...
Als je racet dan weet je dat je grote risico's neemt. Op elke bolide gaat vroeg of laat wel eens iets stuk ... Om hier mensen voor te gaan veroordelen  laat staan gevangenis-straffen airco

Ik vond toch dat ze er destijds bij Williams nogal 'makkelijk' vanaf kwamen. Ten slotte was er geen sprake van een of ander mysterieus verdoken gebrek aan die wagen maar was er gewoon amateuristisch geknoeid met het belangrijkste onderdeel nl. de stuurkolom. Zo'n kolom wordt uit titanium gegoten omdat dit het metaal is dat het hardst is en dus minst kans op breuken geeft. Als je dan ziet dat die mensen bij Williams daar een verroest stukje uitlaat tussen lasten dan heb ik het toch moeilijk daarmee. En ik denk niet dat ze hun 'werkstuk' fier aan Senna hebben getoond vooraleer het te monteren...
Dit zijn zogezegd oude koeien maar hadden ze enkele jaren geleden hun werk grondig gedaan was recht al lang geschied...

Ik las dit o.a. in een artikel een aantal jaren geleden, daar stonden toen ook foto's bij. Ik heb het ingescand voor de geïntresseerden. Je kunt het vinden op Artikel_Senna
Ik zal er de komende dagen nog wat krantenknipsels van het rampweekend in Imola uit 1994 bijzetten.
