about Andrea de Cesaris

Andrea de Cesaris (31 May 1959 – 5 October 2014) was an Italian racing driver. He started 208 Formula One Grands Prix but never won, holding the record for the longest career without a race victory. A string of accidents early in his career earned him the nickname "Andrea de Crasheris", and he became known for being very fast but also wildly erratic. The nickname stuck, though he went on to become a calmer, more mature driver in his later career.

In 2005 and 2006 he competed in the Grand Prix Masters formula for retired F1 drivers.

He died on 5 October 2014 after losing control of his motorcycle on Rome's Grande Raccordo Anulare motorway.
