The 1981 Belgian Grand Prix (Zolder) was the fifth race of the 1981 Formula One Season. The race was marred by tragedy by the death of Osella mechanic Giovanni Amadeo when he stumbled onto the race track and was hit by Carlos Reutemann during practice. Furthermore, Arrows mechanic Dave Luckett was injured whilst trying to restart Riccardo Patrese's car on the startline when he was hit by the second Arrows of Siegfried Stohr.
It was a mess...

Why on earth do they not have remote starter motors like on the '66 312.You can see from the pic I posted the upright battery connected to starter motor that those cars were complete not the nonsense that was running in '81.
It was complete chaos at Zolder then with inexperienced race marshalls.
