“‘I remember the feeling,’ said [Jo] Ramirez, ‘that dreadful feeling when the noise level drops and the cars that were running come into the pits very slowly. And your car is not among them. There was a truck leaving the pit lane to go to the scene of the accident. I went to jump into the back of the truck and Jody [Scheckter], who had just returned to the pits, shouted at me. ‘Don’t go!’ he said. ‘Don’t go!’. I knew then. My heart sank completely.’”

— from Ken Tyrrell - The Authorised Biography by Maurice Hamilton

This is all so sad and horrid. I cannot imagine how/what poor him was feeling, it had to be something terrible.
