--- Цитировать ---Kyalami eye witness
I have seen various claims about drivers
being first to reach the scene of Peter
Revsonis fatal accident at Kyalami.
Alastair Caldwell (December) stated
that it was Denny Hulme. In your May
1974 issue, Hulme, Fittipaldi, Hill and
Keizan reportedly stopped to help.
I was there as a marshal, decided to
watch at Jukskei Sweep and took with
me two fire extinguishers. From there
one could see several corners. Eddie
Keizan’s Tyrrell had ustdisappeared
through Sunset when Graham Hill
entered Barbecue. Then came Revson,
and I watched him from Crowthorne
into Barbecue. It was here that I realised
something was amiss, since he did not
turn but continued straight on.
There was no brake lock or tyre
smoke and he plunged nose-first into the
Armco, halfway between Barbecue and
Jukskei. I have no recollection of
starting to run, but before I reached the
car it was engulfed in flames. Eddie
Keizan and I arrived at the same time.
So intense was the fire that there was no
way I could get close. Eddie, however,
took both my extinguishers and walked
backwards towards the car.
With my head in Eddie“s stomach, I
operated both extinguishers from under
his arms. Graham Hill then arrived and
followed Eddie’s backwards method.
Slowly we began to suppress the fire,
but then one of the extinguishers ran
dry. Thatis when Denny Hulme arrived
on a fire truck — and it was he that
operated the large on—board extinguisher
that defeated the fire, allowing Graham
to unbuckle Revson’s harness. Emerson
Fittipaldi must have arrived some time
after Denny, because I became aware of
him directly behind me.
We lifted Revson from the car and put
him on an ambulance stretcher that had
arrived, but it was obvious that our
efforts had been in vain. Contrary to
some published claims, it is not true that
he was decapitated.
I sat down with Francis Tucker, the
chairman of the SA GP committee and a
practising lawyer, to give a sworn
statement that was used in the inquest.
During a post-race gathering at
Francis’s house, I asked Graham how
everyone felt following Revsonis
accident. He replied, “Nothing
happened. Forget it.“
