Fabio Barchitta	In 1989, at Hockenheim, a terrible accident involved the riders Ivan Palazzese, who died, and the Italian rider Fabio Barchitta, who was saved from a sure paralysis and can walk perfectly well today.
Reinold Roth	Reinold Roth was involved in a very serious accident in Yugoslavia: the Yugoslavian doctors, upset and frightened, quickly carried him to the Mobile Clinic, the only medical facility at the circuit for that event. Virtually dead and still wearing his close-fitting leathers and helmet when he is brought to the Clinic, he is submitted to all the required resuscitation manoeuvres and snatched from the jaws of death, although not back to a normal life. The signs of that accident are still engraved in all his body, mind and style of life: he is still living in Germany, but has the self-sufficiency of a child and as such he is lovingly looked after by his family.
Corrado Catalano	In May 1993, at Hockenheim, Corrado Catalano received terrible head injuries and was urgently admitted for brain surgery to the Mannheim hospital, where he was operated on by the capable specialist, Dr. Adrian Wolf. He returns to normal everyday life a few months later, although he will no longer race a bike.
