saad that a fun day could end like this



the compartment looks intact, i could be wrong but it doesnt look like he wore the 5point

 

As Clarkson put it:

Speed never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary...that's what gets you.

R.I.P.

 

RIP
condolences to his family for their tragic loss

 

RIP.

Does the driver seat like it has moved outwards from its position in the first pic? Also in the second pic, I hope theres not what I think there is under the black tarp inside of guardrail....

 

I was gonna say, at least he wrecked it properly... Until I read the last part. That's horrible.

R.I.P.

 

As reported the driver died from a brocken neck. A 13 year old boy on the passenger seat had a brocken arm an survived. He was the son of a friend from the driver.

I really think that in respect for the family teamspeed should close this discussion here.

Motorsport is dangerous..this example shows it again..next time I will go on the track I will have a dull feeling in my stomach..

I have driven the GT2RS too..at 620hp everything is happening very fast..and you have to be trained to drive it really fast...and only are few are so..me probably not either..

 

Why should we close the discussion? Nothing but respect has been shown here.

You should recognize that.

 

+1 STOPPIE.

And yes, motorsport is dangerous, however, you very well know the risk.

Tips says it looks like he wasn't wearing a 5 point. I sort of agree with him, it doesn't. And it's a real shame too that he died of a broken neck. I think a Hans device could have save his life, easily.

Once again, R.I.P, and to all those who attend track days, stay as safe as possible and take every precaution.

 

They don't call that car the widow maker for nothing.

RIP, God Bless.
