As always f1metrics brings about a topic that has been discussed over the years many many times. What if? In this case the author focuses on drivers that have been killed (or gravely hurt). He starts with the obvious, what if Senna had survived the Imola crash. It’s fairly easy to see that his conclusions make a lot of sense.
There are other what ifs that are intriguing; what if Senna would have been hired after his test with Williams in 83?
What was a surprised to me was the analysis on Tommy Brise, of whom I knew very little but using their math model and over the years he could have fought world titles! In future parts, there’s going to be analysis on Kubika and Stefan Bellof.
I know some think this is a futile exercise but for me it’s fun and takes away the boredom of the summer days.
Enjoy!
