It was the third race of the 1994 Formula One season . Fatalities and injuries at this race proved to be a major turning point in both the 1994 season , and in the development of Formula One itself , particularly with regard to safety . The race weekend was marked by the deaths of Austrian driver Roland Ratzenberger and of three-time world champion Ayrton Senna in separate accidents . Other incidents saw driver Rubens Barrichello injured and several mechanics and spectators injured . In terms of driver fatalities , this was Formula One 's darkest weekend since two drivers were killed at the 1960 Belgian Grand Prix . Michael Schumacher , driving for Benetton , won the race despite contact with Damon Hill ( who dropped to the back of the field and battled back to finish sixth ) . Nicola Larini , driving for Ferrari , scored the first points of his career when he achieved a podium finish in second position . Mika Häkkinen finished third in a McLaren . The race led to an increased emphasis on safety in the sport as well as the reforming of the Grand Prix Drivers ' Association after a 12-year hiatus , and the changing of many track layouts and car designs . Since the race , numerous regulation changes have been made to slow Formula One cars down and new circuits incorporate large run-off areas to slow cars before they collide with a wall . Senna was given a state funeral in his home town of São Paulo , Brazil , where around 500,000 people lined the streets to watch the coffin pass . Italian prosecutors charged six people with manslaughter in connection with Senna 's death , all of whom were later acquitted . The case took more than 11 years to conclude due to an appeal and a retrial following the original verdict of not guilty . As a result of increased standards in safety following this race , there was a 20-year gap between the deaths of Ratzenberger and Senna , and the crash of Jules Bianchi at the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix which led to his death the following year . |
