| Reuters MONZA, Italy -- Brazilian Rubens Barrichello has called for Heinz-Harald Frentzen to be banned after blaming the German driver for Sunday's fatal pileup at the Italian Grand Prix . A volunteer fire marshal died after being hit by debris following a six-car collision in which Pedro de la Rosa's Arrows car rolled over Barrichello's Ferrari. Barrichello was hit by Frentzen's car when he braked late at the second chicane on the first lap of the race won by his Ferrari teammate Michael Schumacher. Afterward, waving at the damage caused to his helmet by the accident, the Brazilian said: "He was totally responsible for what happened and he should be suspended. "It is completely unbelievable that he should think I was braking early. "I was overtaking Jarno Trulli and I was braking as late as I could. He should not be using the car in front of him as a reference for his braking points." Frentzen saw the accident differently. "I tried to overtake Barrichello but he changed line and braked unexpectedly," the German said. Barrichello said he had a big hole in his helmet from de la Rosa's collision. | ALSO SEE Race official killed in tragic Italian Grand Prix Frentzen says he's not to blame for accident | |||||
