I just saw that... Really sad. I watched the Indy race this year and became a fan of his. As safe as they try to make racing, 33 cars going 200 mile an hour sets up a bad situation.0

+1. Sad, sad thing. The brightest flames unfortunately tend to burn the quickest. RIP to Dan Wheldon, and prayers to those he left behind.skweekz:That was an absolute shame to lose a great driver and guy at such a young age. Thoughts and prayers to his family...

As incredibly safe as those machines are you can never take the danger out of travelling that fast. It is sad indeed to lose a driver in a crash. Racing leagues are a very close knit group and it will impact all of them heavily0
