A tragedy again. Its a beautiful rally but deadly casualties spoil the greatness of this event.

Oh well, some updates about the races so far http://www.racedepartment.com/tag/dakar/

A tragedy indeed, apparently he got in a wreck on the way to the stage...I'd be interested to know more about that, seems pretty odd.
