Preview of Tragic Events in the Imola ’94 Podcast – Part 1

In honor of the 30th anniversary of the tragic deaths of Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, our new motorsport history podcast, And Colossally… That’s History!, presents a three-part series. Hosted by Matt Bishop and Richard Williams, known for his exceptional book, The Death of Ayrton Senna, the podcast explores the evolution of Formula 1 as a sport in 1994, both culturally and in terms of safety. The hosts delve into the changes in attitudes towards injuries and deaths, while also discussing the possible complacency that may have arisen at that time. With their characteristic blend of stories and insights, they focus on the year 1994, examining the combination of rule changes, suspicions, and unfortunate circumstances that left Senna uneasy as he approached the race at Imola.
