Lorenzo Bandini (December 21, 1935 - May 10, 1967) was an Italian Formula One driver who raced for Ferrari, Cooper and BRM. He was killed at the 1967 Monaco Grand Prix after his Ferrari overturned while in second place behind eventual champion Denny Hulme and burst into flames. Bandini died in hospital three days later. In response to the accident, the straw bales were banned from Formula One from that point onwards. He was born in Barce, Cyrenaica, Libya, then an Italian colony. Bandini's claim to fame was being the first winner of the Austrian Grand Prix in 1964.
