Not keen on seeing Ivor Buebs crumpled body.
Love those Coopers.

Yeah that shocked me, I assume he was okay otherwise it would be rather distasteful.

He suffered serious injuries in 1959 when he crashed his BRP Cooper-Borgward Formula Two car at the Charade Circuit near Clermont-Ferrand, France. He crashed at Gravenoire, a multiple apex-section at the very far end of the circuit, and was thrown out of his Cooper. He died six days later at a hospital near the circuit
