Default More Sadness for Australasia.
R.I.P Peter "Perfect" Brock.



Quote:
Australian motor racing legend Peter Brock has been killed in an accident in Western Australia.
He is understood to have died in the Targa West rally.
He was driving with Mick Hone in a Daytona Coupe, and it is unclear what his navigator's condition is.
The rally began in Perth on Thursday.
Peter Brock was born in 1945 and rose to fame in touring car racing, winning the Bathurst 1000 nine times during the 1970s and 80s.
He retired from full-time driving in 1997 but was a regular presenter on New Zealand television screens hosting programmes such as TV3's Police Stop and TVNZ's Love that Car.
Sky News reporter Terry Galloway says the death is a stunning blow. He says the man known as "Peter Perfect" had an impeccable driving record.
Most of you won't know him but trust me, he was the Steve Irwin of Motorsport

Well that sucks.

A piece of me died too when I heard that news.

R.I.P Brocky. You were the king of the mountain.

it's spelt 'Australia' or in plural 'Australians'.
