Agreed. It was a great show. I still have it DVR'd. I think it was called,
"Grand Prix, the deadly years" or something of that nature. Actually a bit
graphic, showed several videos and images of crashes including the remains
of the drivers, etc. So a little disturbing. Definitely gives you an
appreciation for the risks and how times have changed.

It was on "Velocity" channel and it was an excellent program. It just goes
to show how far the safety aspect of F1 racing has come.
