I saw the accident live, I was very worried about him. We got at first a positive sign "he's conscious" but then the race was cancelled as he was in critical condition. That didn't forbode well.

It is with sadness that I read your post that he has died. But he tried to make something special of his life and died doing what he loved more than anything. I think that counts for a lot. Rest in peace.
