Quiz question for you (no Google please)...which country's flag was found unfurled in the car after Senna's body was removed?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

My parents drove me back to school that very night. I remember trying to get my head round the whole 'clinically dead' scenario, but still alive. Very sad and upset me for quite a while.

Sorry I meant furled (if there is such a word)!

Quiz question for you (no Google please)...which country's flag was found unfurled in the car after Senna's body was removed?

The correct answer for that using my brainbox only is....

Austria, it was coverd in Blood, senna had planned to waive it from the car after winning the race in honour of Roland Ratzenburger who was killed in qulaifying the day before.

 

[Peppermint Tea]

Correct Liam. Very impressive if that was a Google-free answer. Your spelling however...

The right front wheel was knocked back towards the cockpit and a suspension arm pierced Senna’s helmet visor, inflicting the fatal injury.
