i tend to agree with Justen's comments on the strength of the rods.... they are pretty short and damn meaty, it would take some seriously high rpm and some failures down the line somewhere else to destroy one of those glorious tractor-engineered rods!!
Simon, i would not so much point fingers at different components of the engine causing it to fail in a full-fledged race situation... full-on racing pushes the absolute limits of ALL components of an engine, and when you are pushing 9000+rpm with spastic driving and the harshest of conditions, the odd failure here and there cannot really be contributed to a singular flaw or fault (unless blatant!).
In my mind, they were just unlucky back then
