Im just working off forix looking at the ones who died young, and it doesn't say who was killed in a race - in the 1960s the average life span for a F1 driver seemed to be about 30 years old!

That was an F2 race. Ronnie Peterson died as the result of the injuries he suffered in the 1978 Italian GP startline accident at Monza.

Fangio died at old age, and Gunnar Nilsson, for example, died young from cancer. Like Armco Bender says, that list is of drivers who have died, regardless of cause.

I've found quite a few more paralysed, comatosed, and permanently injured as well. This makes me appreciate the sport even more, knowing they are putting their life on the line. |

Some on that list were never F1 drivers.Americans who took part in the Indy 500 when it officially counted for the World Drivers Championship 1950-60.
Fangio certainly died of old age.James Hunt also died in bed.One statistic that always amazes me is that of the 10 world champions now deceased only Senna died in a F1 WC GP. Farina -road Accident 1966 Fangio-old age 1995 Ascari-testing sports car 1955 Hawthorn-road accident 1959 Graham Hill-plane crash 1975 Jim Clark-F2 race -1968 Jochen Rindt-F1 practice-1970 Denny Hulme-heart attack while driving in Bathurst 1000-1992 James Hunt-heart attack 1993 Ayrton Senna-Imola 1994 |

MiniMe motor racing is dangerous,but if compared to mountaineering or sky diving 23 in 50 odd years isn't too bad.
