 Four other people, including two young children, were seriously injured.Although there had only been one previous fatality at the original Mugello circuit (Günther Klass in 1967), this incident put a bad stain on the entire event and the 1970 race turned out to be the last one held on the public road circuit, which was won once again by Merzario.After this incident Dini spent two months in prison, and after his time served he left Italy and did not return for years.
