#OnThisDay 35 years ago: mechanical failure during #F1 #SpanishGP practice sent Martin Donnelly into Jerez's barriers at around 175mph. His Lotus 102 tore apart, throwing him down the track still strapped to part of his seat; though seriously injured, Donnelly somehow survived. https://t.co/anWApE7ulV
