Ashley Cooper dies
V8 driver Ashley Cooper has died two days after crashing at Adelaide in a development series race.
27 year old Cooper, a father of two, collided with a safety barrier when travelling at more than 200 kilometres/hour.
“It is always a very sad day when any member of the motor sport community is taken from us,” Confederation of Australian Motor Sport president Colin Osbourne said.
“Our thoughts and sympathies go to Ashley’s family and friends, particularly his wife Casey and two children and parents Alan and Maree.”
The incident has raised concerns about the safety of the Adelaide street circuit, with several accidents occurring on the Clipsal 500 weekend.
