I believe that there are still unknown answers, certainly in the public arena, as to what the actual cause behind the cars inability to come to a halt in what was just a straight line test.
Only a minor point, but I believe it was a transport company truck, not a Manor F1 transporter. In any event it was a tragic accident and waste. A certain cruel irony to me was that Maria's father shared a car with Guy Edwards at Le Mans and both of them went on to lose their racing children in freak accidents in a racing car, when neither of them were actually racing.
