You know I don't have any memories. That is the slow right section which is after the present day start line, then as today, folks tangle or lose it on their own under braking and go onto the grass. Think of all the post start incidents we've seen there over the years.
I did look up some YouTube stuff of the tv coverage of the race, but didn't see this spin. But yes, the marshal intersection looks odd, but it could have been simply cuz a car was approaching, who knows.
We'd have to check the helmet designs.

Neat to see John Watson's car, even if out of focus. Nice looking car that McLaren.
