Re: Unusual F1 Stats
Burti probably could be added to the list too. His 2001 crash left him a severe concussion and pretty much ended his F1 career.
Plus by looking at the picture of his crash helmet after the accident, it's amazing that this was his only injury sustained!

Re: What If?
I think the bigger question is would Senna have been able to pass both Prost and Mansell? IIRC Mansell was pulling away from Prost when he crashed. Would Bellof have passed all 3 of them? (Even though he'd later have the win taken off him).
