Hmm, it depends
But for sure - it is maybe the most dangerous place in GP2 I have driven.
The corner is too narrow for 2 cars and if someone is trying to pass there, a contact is inevitable. There were crashes in all my seasons from 1950 to 1953, especially in the 1st lap.
Another example from 1951:

It's getting from bad till worse!

The only way to top that are the crash festivals from the old Papyrus games...

Yeah, like Indycar I and II, and NASCAR II

To bad those won't work on the PC i have now , but Gp2 does!

Are there some file size limitations for attachments in the forum? I could attach my race review from 1953. There where 6 accidents in that Masta corner. It was a really exciting race with lots of passing, slipstreaming, crashing, numerous leader changes and so on.

Double Engine failure in the last lap - Silverstone 1988


Webber has little damage, which was repaired in a 9 second pitstop - Barcelona 2003


A small accident on Salzburgring


Very close overtakeing

Nice Shots!

Wow, the first pic is a very rare one I guess. Never seen two engine blow ups in one pic (in GP2, in reality I did, Barcelona 98 both Arrows )!!

Webber has not only lost a sidepod and the rear-wing, he has also very worn out tyres in the rear. They look already like slicks!

Indy 500 - season 1950. Chronology of the accident:
1. Farina is lapping his teammate Serafini, but runs on his rear wheel;
2. As it usually happens - Farina launched into the air!
3. BUT SEE THE FLIGHT DISTANCE!!! Across the whole track and right into the wall!!!
4. ... and the landing...

You can never fly over the fence though, can you? I remember there's some sort of an invisible barrier or something.

There is also an additional fencing net on the concrete wall in this track. But I think you woun't even if it's not there. Otherwise you would kill a lot of spectators

No matter how high or low your fence is, there's always a barrier at the fence offset troughout the sky! So you can never go over it!

That's what I thought...

Hey, just a word on I think you could posibly post them on here too. i might give it a try as i have already done it with GP4 (search youtube.com for 2007 Australian grand prix real commentary).

A strange pit-stop strategy by Ferrari - Imola 1990.
Both are regular CC car pitstops...
