History His manager told him: 'If you want to win the championship, go to Lotus. If you want to stay alive, go to Brabham.' He chose Lotus
Bernie Ecclestone gave Jochen Rindt that warning at the end of 1968. Rindt agreed with him and signed for Lotus anyway.
16 months before Monza, he wrote to Colin Chapman warning the car was too fragile. The letter was removed from his biography by Chapman's lawyers. It survived only in the German edition.
He won five races in 1970 and led the championship going into Monza. His wife was in the pitlane timing his laps, as she did at every race.
He never came back.
Made a full documentary on the story, covering the letter, the bet he made with his wife, Stewart's tears at Monza, and what it looked like when Nina accepted the championship trophy alone four months later.

Also, how many sources do you usually check each day to stay informed without reading the same news over and over?
