Newey says puncture killed Senna.



Newey: Puncture likely cause of Senna crash
Red Bull designer Adrian Newey believes that a puncture was the most likely cause of the crash that killed Aryton Senna and that it nearly made him leave F1.
Newey was the man responsible for the design of the FW16 that Senna was driving on the fateful day at Imola when the Brazilian legend was killed in a single-car accident.
The Briton admits that the incident has a tremendous impact on him, so much so that he still is unable to watch footage of the accident.
