| R.I.P. DAN WHELDON 1978-2011 |
Tragically killed in an horrific accident whilst racing last Sunday in the Indycar World Championship race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in
America.
The connections -
Dan Wheldon was born in Emberton near Olney in Buckinghamshire
on 22nd. June 1978.
Although I never knew him, I worked in the motor racing industry for the
best part of 30 years until just over 18 months ago when I was made redundant.
There is a huge motor racing community in the U.K. and it functions just like one
big family and no matter how big or small your part is in that family you still
feel the pain when someone is lost.
