I think that was Giles Villeneuve's 312T.
But yeah kind of highlights the difference between 2 different eras of ground effect car. Even with porpoising the modern cars look much easier to drive.

He reported having brake issues when it happened, not sure if it was a mechanical issue, or just oil/debris. But yeah, let's hope that's his annual Monaco crash out of the way for this year!

Quick one on this, I'm sure folks like James Hunt or Nigel Mansell would have struggled to last more than a few laps in modern cars at full pelt. Easy is a pretty general term and while H-pattern gear shifters and foot operated clutches might make the older ones more tricky to drive. The stamina and reaction times required to drive modern cars is on another level I'm sure.

There was a video of him driving that car (I assume) on the Ferrari test track. It did not look like a comfortable experience for him, wheelspin non-stop.
