Information
During 1984 South African GP warm up before the race, Piercarlo Ghinzani lost control at 160mph. The rear end of his car hit the barrier and was split off, and the fuel tank burst into flames. Luckily the monocoque was intact and didn't roll over, Ghinzani was conscious to escape from serious injury. The chassis was burnt and soaked in foams, written off and never used again in that season. Later in 1985 a chassis with same number was used as spare tub, and in 1986 it was used almost in the whole season. Judging from pictures of the accident, the chassis could be beyond reparation, assumably the team built a new chassis with the same number.
