I genuinely dont know if the roll bar would have withstood this, Pancho Carter at Indianapolis walked away unscated from something like this, although it was on asphalt. Or maybe i'm overanalysing a shitpost
Little disclaimer to the people coming here hoping to see a reconstruction of Gilles Villeneuve fatal crash: this clearly is in no way such a thing, neither is the red car a Ferrari.... it rather looks to me a Lotus 79 or a Tyrrell 009.
