Here's a crash at 300 mph. The driver got a cut on his finger.

Here's Ashley Force. This was actually a lot worse than it looks like; the cameras make it look much slower.

There have been no F1 deaths since 1994.
Motor racing in general is much safer, even at club level. The biggest single improvement in recent years has been the HANS device; I don't have any data, but subjectively I'd say that it has contributed to a significant reduction in neck injuries.
Senna?There have been no F1 deaths since 1994.

That was in 1994. Him and Karl Wendlinger. There have been none since. Nor any traumatic amputations. Unlike Champ Car, IRL, or NASCAR...Senna?There have been no F1 deaths since 1994.
