Last year, the Italian Luca Salvadori had a terrible accident in Frohburg. The fact that his father has taken legal action against the organizers is not understood by his fellow racing drivers and fans.
Last year there was a fatal crash in Frohburg on the second round of the SBK/STK 1000 race. While German Didier Grams survived serious injuries, 32-year-old Italian Luca Salvadori died from his injuries. Now the dead pilot’s father has presented an animation that traces the course of the crash, which differs from previous eyewitness reports.
In one A video posted on his son’s YouTube channel at the beginning of the yearhe makes accusations against the organizers of the event because, in his opinion and in the opinion of the team, there were serious safety flaws in the safety of the route. In his statement he also talks about the legal measures he has taken.
This approach of Maurizio Salvadori is not well understood by his fellow racing drivers and fans. “What was written here is not true and it was analyzed wrongly. Anyone who was there and saw it knows exactly what happened. Please don’t spread lies, what is happening in Germany is enough,” said Didier Grams’ pithy opinion about the allegations made.
«The IRRC operator always tries to ensure safety. Every racing driver who participates in the race knows that something can always happen,” says Olivier Lupberger, talking about the dangers of the sport. “In Frohburg, Mr. Salvadore, it was a normal racing accident! I don’t think it’s right to start such an act. We love this crazy racing game and we thank the IRRC organization for making it possible.”
“It would have, if and but! What happened here was a terrible accident! Yes, I can judge because I was the first follower behind Didier and Luca,” writes IRRC Superbike champion David Datzer. “Neither the DMSB nor the MSC Frohburger triangle eV can do anything about it! And I personally am not a fan of the DSB. The route was properly protected, in my opinion it was very safe.
“We road racers, and I speak for everyone or most of those who have been racing in Frohburg for many years, we know that the Frohburg Triangle has very high standards for their safety, because it’s Germany and that’s where the race is. if everything is involved, everything is 110 percent, otherwise nothing is going on there today! Surely no mistake was made!”
“I am a big fan of Luca. He was a real fighter, passionate and I can say a friend. That is why I have the opinion that he himself would not want these discussions! He knew the meaning of road racing. We agree because it is amazing! He knew Frohburg is a race course road, long, fast but not dangerous. It has real six corners and a chicane.”
“Please, Mr. Salvadori, Germany cannot help,” Datzer pleads with Luca’s father. “What would have happened if such an accident had happened on the Isle of Man? Blaming the Isle of Man? I understand the pain behind it. I myself have lost good friends, but blaming the safety standards is not an option! I have been racing Frohburg since 2016, I have been on the Isle of Man since 2019 and I’m happy that we have this race and we can run it!”
“Road racing is dangerous, but I believe that blaming why or how it happened is wrong! And I know about Lucas’ passion and determination! I ignore people who
“You should be glad that the smaller motorsport clubs dedicate themselves every year to maintain such traditional events and thus ensure that entry fees are kept under control and that private riders can still enjoy real racing in a professional environment,” writes user Da Basti . Facebook for comments from other street racing fans.
And more: “Even though the loss of Luca is painful, it would certainly not be appropriate to take action against such events. I think it is completely insulting to everyone involved to find a fly in the ointment now because the pain is great and money is nothing!
