Can't forget the picture of the crash :-(

Probably pretty standard for the era, driver deaths were a fairly
regular event. If it was some unknown rookie it probably wouldn't have
made the national papers...

How pleasant it would be to see such habits reintroduced.

An other myth busted.
Although, I guess Senna died a few feet in front of Schumacher, live on TV
and still nobdy knows what happened.

The alleged goal of "objectivity" of the press has been watered down into oblivion.
It is also interesting to see how a totally neutral text speaks to you between
the lines ("... (he) was evidently unhappy, according to a race official") and
carries it's own set of emotions.

There would be no mention at all that it was observed by a race official
that Clark appeared to be unhappy.
There-in lies the difference, I think, between objective (then) and
subjective (now) reporting.
All the best to you.

Not the picture. The story talks about a Policeman and a competitor behind
him seeing the leadup to and the actual accident.
