British driver Dan Wheldon has died following a massive accident at the Las Vegas Indy 300. Buckinghamshire-born Wheldon, 33, was one of 15 drivers involved in a crash at the second corner on lap 13 of the series' season-ending race.
Wheldon, who began IndyCar racing in 2002, was series champion in 2005 and won the Indy 500 in 2005 and 2011.

How very sad to hear this news.

RIP Dan
