Just awful. :( Sirref July 1st, 2019, 08:50 AM The crash made no sense too, on the straightaway after the final corner. Tragic, RIP CaliGrrl July 1st, 2019, 09:17 AM That sucks. I want to go see the race, but I'm hoping to only see successful corner navigations. No crashes. maverick9611 July 1st, 2019, 10:42 AM how did he crash?the article never went into details.
