Very sad day for British Motorsport.

The crash was horrific, 3 other drivers were taken to hospital, and a few other drivers treated at the track.

He was challenged to start last and if he won he would win $5,000,000.
He made up 11 places i think, Car infront breaked and a massive 15 car smash up.

On the news they described him as the best british sporting person who not many people have heard off. I have never heard of him.. He was a bit of a legend apparently.

He leaves behind 2 kids and a wife.

Horrible as in any death. RIP
