The Craziest Moments in Motorsport History

Some moments in motorsport are unforgettable.

Niki Lauda crash at the Nurburgring in 1976. He was trapped in a burning car for over a minute. He came back six weeks later and almost won the championship. His face was scarred for life. He said the crash made him a better person.

Ayrton Senna first lap at Donington 1993. Raining. He passed four cars in one lap. The onboard footage shows him controlling a car that should have spun. He won by over a minute.

Michael Schumacher 1996 Spanish Grand Prix. First win for Ferrari. The car was not competitive. Schumacher drove it in the rain like nobody else could. That race changed Ferrari history.

Juan Manuel Fangio 1957 German Grand Prix. He was 46 years old. He lapped everyone except second place. He drove the most dominant race in history and nobody remembers because it was before television.

These moments define the sport. Not the championships. The moments when everything aligned.
