Max Mosely thought that Ayrton Senna’s death w⛦oulꦕd be “the end” of F1, Bernie Ecclestone has claimed.

The legendary Brazilian driver died 30 years ago, on May 1st 1994, after an accide﷽nt at the San Marino Grand Prix.

Senna’s death was the second of the weekend, after Roland Ratzenberger also tr💞agica♛lly died in an accident.

"Max Mosley said to me afterwards that he believed it would be the end of Formula One,” Eccꦍlestone was quoted by .

“I said, 'I think you are wrong and 🙈we will have to see'.

"We hoped it wouldn't cause what Max had suggested might happen, but it wasꦑ just a disaster.

“It wasn't a good we✅ekend, and it seems to me a lot longer than 30 years. He was just🎃 so unlucky to die in that accident.

"It was just a disastrous weekend.

"If you think about all the things that happe🌊ned, with Roland crashing and never getting out of his car, and then Senna, I really don't think it wou🍌ld be possible for it to happen again."

The grand prix restarted after Senna’s c๊rash, and was won by Michael Schumacher.

Ex-F1 boss Ecclestone said: "Should we have stopped൩ the race? I don't thiꦏnk so. It wouldn't have helped him in any way, shape or form.

"When these things happen,ꦺ they all happen so quickly that you don't really have that much time to think. Legal༺ly, it should have been stopped, because we now know he died at the circuit.

"But in the end, it came down to commercial problems, people who would have wanted refunds and all these sorts of things. And the other sid🎃e of it, wasn't really taken into consideration.

"But I hope we will never see something like that again, and I think t🍷oday, with the way everything has improved with sa♒fety, thank God, the chances are so much smaller."
