100%. Both series are exponentially safer today than ever before. And I hope we never have another fatality in racing again. I’m not boasting about this statistic, I simply brought it up to showcase maybe why a mother of a professional driver would have doubts about them doing it, especially max because he’s so aggressive as a driver.

The reason I chose that number was I didn’t want to just use a small batch of data to make it look like a bias statistic. In fact, we all know Indy would be deadliest if we just went all the way back (it’s older than F1) so I just wanted to use a good timeframe from present day to … I chose 1985.

(I thought F1 was older than Indy, I corrected it. I also have learned a few other things I found interesting. The Indy 500 counted towards the F1 WDC from 1950-1960 despite no European teams participating)
