Australian motor racing legend Peter Brock has been killed in an accident while taking part in the Targa West rally in Western Australia, motor sport officials have confirmed.
Brock, 61, who had three children, was driving with colleague Mick Hone in a Daytona Coupe when the incident occurred.
West Australian police say the car crashed into a tree at Gidgegannup about 40 kilometres north-east of Perth about 12pm (AEST). No other vehicles were involved, it is understood.
....
Les Andrews, who was first on the scene, said he opened the driver's side door of Mr Brock's car and was shocked.
"It wasn't a very nice thing ... you are looking at your idol and the idol is looking at you in a peaceful way," Mr Andrews said. "You just feel so helpless." |
