Involvement With Ayrton Senna
Patrick Head is the man that the Italian Courts decided was ultimately responsible for the death of Ayrton Senna at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
The verdict of the court states; "It has been determined that the accident was caused by a steering column failure. This failure was caused by badly designed and badly executed modifications. The responsibility of this falls on Patrick Head, culpable of omitted control".
Even being found responsible for Senna's accident, Patrick Head was not arrested: in Italy the statute of limitations for manslaughter is 7 years and 6 months, and the final verdict was pronounced 13 years after the accident.

Famous quotes containing the word involvement:
“Even if you find yourself in a heated exchange with your toddler, it is better for your child to feel the heat rather than for him to feel you withdraw emotionally.... Active and emotional involvement between parent and child helps the child make the limits a part of himself.”
—Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
