Salvadori’s death, the father’s pain
Almost a month after Luca’s death Salvadorithe family of the pilot who died in Frohburg (Germany), returns to the tragedy that shocked them. Father Maurizio in fact accused those responsible for safety for the prevention measures adopted in the race.
The words of Maurizio Salvadori
“The protective barriers outside that curve were criminally set up”, this is his outburst on his son’s YouTube channel. “They asked me how such an accident was possible. There are no official images other than those from Luca’s motorbike and the motorbikes that followed him, there are investigations underway and they cannot be used, but I have seen them and I feel I must talk about a delicate topic, safety“.
“Luca was perfectly aware of the risks. The accident with Didier Grams is an accident. Contact between two motorbikes at those speeds, when the motorbike in front goes highside, is a fatality. I’m not the father who searches at all costs for someone to blame for his son’s death, but the issue of safety must be brought forward. There are different risks between running on the track or on the street, but this does not mean that those who organize must do everything possible to guarantee maximum safety. You can’t improvise. My only aim is that such tragedies will be reduced in the future and that everything will be done to avoid them, which has not been done to date.. I spoke to some riders who followed Luca and who, after the accident, told me that they intended to stop. You can’t play with life of the pilots animated by sacred and healthy enthusiasm but who rely on completely incompetent organizations“.
Salvadori died at the age of 32 last September 14th in a round of the International Road Racing Championship. The driver, who has also become famous as a YouTuber (over half a million subscribers), was making his first appearances in the championship and in the world of road racing, after years on the track.
