One police officer was quoted as calling the scene in the flat "absolutely horrific". Tabloid newspapers have reported that she left two suicide notes before hanging herself in the Paris flat; one detailing her last wishes regarding her estate, the other a letter for her parents. A neighbour is said to have heard the couple having an argument before Alméras fell asleep.

Jarno Saarinen commence à courir en Grand Prix en 1970, dans une écurie privée, avec pour monture une 125 Puch et une 250 Yamaha. Précurseur bien avant l'heure, Jarno Saarinen marqua son époque par son style de pilotage jugé "limite" par ses concurrents : il pilotait extrêmement déhanché, pour l'époque, tout en provoquant des dérobades partielles de sa roue arrière. Lorsque, fin 1972, Yamaha lui confirma son passage en 500, Jarno n'avait en tête que de battre Giacomo Agostini. Déterminé à démontrer sur les terres d'Agostini qui était le plus fort, Saarinen n'a cessé de se préparer pour le grand prix de Monza. Sa mort à Monza en 1973 est encore sujette à polémique. L'accident qui causa sa mort eut lieu dans la première courbe juste après le départ, la Curva Grande. Le premier carambolage eu lieu entre Jarno et Renzo Pasolini. Saarinen, au vu des témoignages de pilotes de l'époque, fut tué sur le coup. Cette chute entraîna une série de chutes impliquant plus d'une douzaine de pilotes. Parmi ceux-ci, Chas Mortimer qui percuta Pasolini qui se relevait tout juste de son accrochage avec Saarinen. Pasolini ne se releva pas. En signe de deuil, Yamaha se retira du championnat du monde. Saarinen a gagné 16 Grand Prix. 1971 : Vice-Champion du Monde en 250 cm³ 1972 : Champion du Monde 250 cm³, vice-champion 350 cm³ 1973 : 3 victoires en 250 cm³, 2 victoires en 500 cm³

Pasolini was killed in tragic and controversial circumstances at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza on May 20, 1973. He retired four laps from the end of the 350cc race. On the first lap of the 250cc race, Pasolini fell from his motorcycle, and Jarno Saarinen was unable to avoid crashing into him. A pile-up involving twelve riders ensued, and Pasolini and Saarinen lost their lives.
Over the years, the condition of the track on that day has been the subject of considerable debate. The crash has often been attributed to a spill left on the track during the 350cc race when Walter Villa's Benelli began leaking on the penultimate lap, a problem which was exacerbated when his pit team encouraged him to finish the race in order to collect championship points. Race officials neglected to clean up the spillage prior to the 250cc race, and one rider, John Dodds, made his concerns known to authorities, only to meet with threats. However, Pasolini's fall and the damage to his bike were both consistent with the bike having seized.
