There are several that are gruesome:

1. Roger Williamson's crash (Zandvoort?)
2. Niki Lauda's crash ('Ring)
3. Ferrari at Laguna Seca - the drivers legs were totally exposed
4. Several IRL crashes where all that's left is a gruesome ball of metal

I think after that crash he decided it was time to hang up his driver robes and move on to something less dangerous...commentating
