Prayers to the family. Drivers wear helmets, firesuits and are encased in steel bars. Lets not forget the risks corner workers take for the love of the sport. Thank you workers!

Prayers to the family.

I've drove PBIR, it's typically a fun course that is very forgiving. It sounds like they set up a chicane in the back straightaway, they didn't do that when I drove it.

Our sport is a dangerous one for all involved, we must never forget that. Stay safe out there friends.

Tragic. The sport can be so unforgiving.

So sorry for him and family. Most know the danger but never expect it to happen to them.

Prayers for all!

Jim
