I'd say yes. Drifting is by now regarded as a form of motorsport. Competitive racing. Mm.org can't deny it without contradicting themselves. They have reliability run-fatalities, etc., so this cannot possibly be ignored. Wish it could, tho. It's part of the slippery slope that mm.org were travelling on, from the start. You can find my "essay" on that, on this forum. If you have a different opinion, you should go by your own personal conviction, and make the case you have, as strongly as possible. Then you in all probability win. I lost my case long ago. The mmorg database is, I still find, riddled with irrelevancies, but I bow to the majority, as it's not my personal project, in any way. Some battles you just cannot win. In this particular case, though, I think you are right. Submit your find, is my recommendation. Thanks for the link.

I found this picture from the fatal crash at Kanonloppet 1970 when five spectators died.
All mm.org entries to do with this has the Ford Escort in the vehicle brand field, so in the interest of consistency, the car number 3 should be added. It's difficult, as there is no real info specifying which car caused which fatality.

Perhaps it is possible to have both cars and their brands/numbers in there at the same time, it's probably a unique case in that sense. I'll submit the problem, and we'll see what Nanni works out.

*** Fatal wreck scene ***

1977 Preston Humphries (same, with different attached article).

http://www.motorsportmemorial.org/focus ... =ct&n=6446
http://www.webprosolutions.com/ghosts/humphries.html <---- 5 wreck, and 2 aftermath pics.

Phil Hall was the #51, so the mmorg vehicle number is wrong.

Info submitted.

Circumstances about this are unclear to me:

http://www.lapolilla.com.mx/2014/08/03/ ... r-decesos/

https://lasillarota.com/estados/mueren- ... has-/57102

Web may be a little slow, took a while to show.

It's a fatal 2014-accident from Mexico. 5 pics, aftermath. Looks like stock cars, some collided, and I assume the driver of #7 was killed.
En un tercer percance, la unidad con el número 7 quedó completamente destrozada y el conductor Concepción Fernández Hernández de 36 años de edad a quien identificaban como El Concho, del equipo Romofer, perdió la vida.
Name: Concepción Fernández "El Concho" Hernández, 36 years old.

Circuito Alfonso Soler, or Circuito al Valle de Huamantla, not sure. Name of event 44. Carrera de Carcachas?

I think it also says there were several other accidents.

Help out with this, please, I can't read Spanish at all well.
