Niece has just told me, cant believe it , truly devastating news for his wife n children and family.
R.i.p

Its terrible news, and only a few months off expecting their second child. I met him a few times and he was the quietest most humble person I’ve met for being from such a well recognised family and through his success.

He wasn’t interested in the fame, he just wanted to race. Very sad
