The 1955 edition of the 24 hours of Le Mans was a sports car race that soon turned into horror after the driver Lance Macklin's Austin-Healey tried to avoid hitting the Jaguar of the driver Mike Hawthorn, moving to edge of the track where Pierre Levegh was, hitting his rear, making Levegh lose control and head flying to an earthen embankment causing his death and other 83 spectators' and wounding 120 others. This is the worst disaster in motor racist history.

In all seriousness, one of the most infamous crashes in motorsport.
I have never seen that artist depiction, must have been a massacre.

Among other things, the Klan prides itself on its motorsports safety, so I don't see that record going anywhere soon in the US.
