Formula One World Championship
The immediate aftermath of the multi-car accident at the start of the race: Ronnie Peterson (SWE) Lotus (Yellow overalls) lies in the track having been pulled from his shattered, burning, Lotus 78, and is tended to by marshals and Clay Regazzoni (SUI) Ensign (Red Overalls). James Hunt (GBR) McLaren (Black helmet) walks towards Patrick Depailler (FRA) Tyrrell (Blue helmet) and Vittorio Brambilla (ITA) (Right) who has his head slumped in his Surtees TS20 after suffering a serious head injury from which he fully recovered. Bruno Giacomelli (ITA) walks towards his undamaged McLaren M26 and Derek Daly (IRE) Ensign (Blue overalls) walks through the accident scene. Tragically, Peterson would die from a blood clot following an operation in hospital on his badly broken legs.
Italian Grand Prix, Rd 14, Monza, Italy, 10 September 1978.
