3, if you include Bruce McLaren.
Sadly, quite normal in the '50s and '60s to lose mulitple F1 drivers every season.

You could also add that people liked to see Ferraris on the track and tobacco sponsorship wasnt seen as bad.

At the race meeting that Seena died Roland Ratsunberger ( not sure of spelling) also died but most people seem to forget that.
