Today I wanted to talk
Today I wanted to talk about the most dangerous race car ever made, in my opinion. That would be the Honda RA302, a magnesium Formula 1 car built by Honda for the 1968 season.
In it's first ever race, the 1968 French GP, Jo Schlesser would lose control of the RA302 only two laps into the race. It would flip and land upside down on an embankment. The fuel tank would split open, where fuel would drip onto the exhaust and ignite instantly. Due to the magnesium design of the car, and the flammable nature of the material, the entire car would go up in flames and would burn for over ten minutes. All while the race went on around it.
Racing in the 1960's was a wild time.
