1 994 may1Sunday

7: 30 am: Senna arrives at the track by helicopter and starts the warm-up activities in the morning. He told david brown not to change the tuning of the car.

1 1 am: Senna and his teammate Berger at McLaren attended a drivers' meeting, which was short but enjoyable. All drivers observed a minute of silence for Reichenberg.

12 pm: Senna begins to prepare for the game. When he was at McLaren, he sat in the cab and recited the Bible. He put the Bible in his briefcase that weekend, but no one saw him reading it that morning.

1: 30pm: Half an hour before the start of the competition, Senna came to Williams' garage, accompanied by Brazilian journalist Jaime Brito, and asked Senna to sign three photos. "These photos are so sad. He is a hero of Brazil and a symbol of Brazil. " Brito recalled: "He did many strange things that day. For example, he walked around the car, checked the tires and put on wings, as if he had doubts about the car."

Senna's temperament is also different. He broke his routine-he took off his headscarf in the starting position. Compared with most other drivers who get off at the starting point and wait for the start, as soon as they get on the bus, Senna almost stays in the carriage and looks at the first corner intently.

At 2 pm: the headlights turned green, and Senna and all the cars in pole position rushed to the first corner, but there was a little trouble on the track. Nami's Lotus car crashed into the rear of Benetton, which broke down at the starting position, and the scattered racing debris covered almost the whole track.

2: 03 pm: While cleaning up the car debris, the safety car comes out to take other cars to continue the race. Senna followed the safety car and kept his distance. Schumacher, Berger and Hill followed.

2: 15pm: Williams informed Senna that the safety car would leave the track, and Senna confirmed the news, which was their last contact. When the race started again, Senna and Schumacher quickly opened the gap with other drivers.

2: 17pm: When the race resumed and passed the Tambrero bend for the second time, Serena's Williams raced out of the top of the bend at a speed of 190 mph and hit the concrete crash wall. The right front of the car was the first to receive all the impact, one tire fell off, the suspension cracked, and the whole car was bounced back to the track. Before rushing out of the track and hitting the wall, Senna lowered the brakes of the car to 130 mph. The car without tires came to a complete stop, and fans hoped that Senna's head would only be hit briefly. However, Senna suffered a powerful brain injury. In front of the TV screen, millions of TV viewers saw the pictures inside the car through aerial cameras, and blood slowly infiltrated into the car like gasoline. Senna was immediately removed from the damaged racing car and taken to the hospital by helicopter. On the stretcher, the doctor hoped to restore Senna by stimulating his heart.

2: 55pm: 37 minutes after Senna ran off the track, the race started again. In Faroe, Galiste had seen the accident on TV, and she felt a little happy at that moment, because Senna would go home earlier. But soon Luiza Braga (Antonio's wife) called and told her the whole horror process, and had prepared a charter plane to fly to Senna's bedside to accompany her immediately. The trip was in vain, and the plane returned due to the weather shortly after leaving Faroe.

4。 At 20 pm, Schumacher crossed the finish line and won the third championship in the F 1 race. Shortly thereafter, the machine that tested Senna's brain waves confirmed that Senna was brain-dead, and his continued survival was only based on artificial assumptions. Although Italian law stipulates that doctors can't turn off medical equipment within 12 hours, even so, it is still a drop in the bucket to prove that Senna still has signs of life.

At 6: 40pm, the official chief doctor, Dr. Maria Theresa Fiandri, announced the death of Senna.

Back on the track, a rolled-up Austrian flag was found in the damaged car left by Senna. Senna had planned to commemorate the Austrian Reichenberg with his 42nd F 1 sub-station champion.

Senna died in an accident, leaving a series of sequelae. Recently, Morizio Passarini, the prosecutor in charge of investigating the case, recently asked the Italian Supreme Court to reopen the trial, which will be the third trial of the Senna case. Williams team manager Williams, technical director Newway, design director Hyde and other six parties were twice prosecuted by the procuratorate for "manslaughter", but they were all acquitted. Senna has been dead for 10 years, but there is no clear statement about his cause of death.
