Very sad news about Dan Wheldon

My thoughts go to his wife & young family. It's often to easy to forget that motorsport is very dangerous and this terrible incident just highlights the fact.

He was a very talented driver and a great ambassador for the sport. He will be sadly missed.

Sad news indeed.
But one thought comes to mind -- if one has a family, maybe they should consider other not so dangerous options.

You must do what you love and makes you happy in life, it's not only good for you but also those around you. Your life might be shorted but it will still be great.
