Wouldn't be a chain, would be a blower belt.

I've also heard of ring gears coming off flywheels & inflicting damage..

imola 94,

pedro lamy in a lotus slammed into the back of jj lehto in a benetton, sent a wheel flying into the grandstand injuring 9 people and killing 1 guy.

then 7 laps later senna died... and the day before roland ratzemberger died, and the day before that barrichello smashed into the wall and broke his nose!

great weekend

So you go to a spectator event, sit down to eat lunch and get killed by a flying tyre.
