VELOCIPEDE Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 MTV Simtek Ford S941 http://www.racingrenders.com/pages/94simtek.html From the F1-S-R 1994 F1 mod for rFactor comes the MTV Simtek Ford S941The 1994 season was a tragic one which centred on the events of Imola and death of triple champion Ayrton Senna. No doubt this event somewhat overshadowed the previous days fataility of rookie driver Roland Ratzenberger who lost his life during qualifying after damaging his front wing on the previous lap, only for it for break free and go under the car on the next lap sending him into a wall at high speed. The death of Ratzenberger affected Senna deeply to the extent that an unfurled flag of Ratzenbergers home country of Austria was found in Senna's wreckage from which he intended to use as a tribute to him had Senna won. Indeed after the Ratzenberger incident Senna almost decided not to race the next day. Simtek replaced Ratzenberger with 3 different drivers for the remainder of the season (Montermini, Gounon and Schiattarella) to partner team-mate David Brabham. Among numerous retirements for team during the season it was Jean-Marc Gounon who scored their highest placing of 9th in Canada. 6 renders of the S941 belonging to the not-forgotten Roland Ratzenberger @ 1920x1200 res.
