[edit] first former Formula One champion to die of natural causes?

"...made him the first former Formula One champion to die of natural causes..." - Really. Fangio? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Snori (talk • contribs) 03:12, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes. Hulme died in 1992. At that point, the only other World Champions to have died were: Farina (road accident), Ascari (racing car accident), Hawthorn (road accident), G.Hill (aircrash), Clark (racing accident) and Rindt (racing accident), i.e. none from natural causes. Hunt and Fangio subsequently died of natural causes (in 1993 and 1995 respectively) and Senna died in a racing accident in 1994. DH85868993 03:43, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
