I know this is one for the admins / mods etc to watch and I know some will know as I do who the driver was, but can we not speculate who it is before all next of kin have been announced? Apologies if sound harsh and aware no-one is speculating yet, but you never know...seen it a few times before!
This accident involving the death of one of the competitors does not seem to have been the only biggy of the day as aware of at least one other, involving Andy Burton (who as far as I know is ok as is his son / co-driver).
Condolences to the driver's family, and friends - but let's not forget he was doing something he enjoyed as well, though am sure he would never have wished this to happen. RIP.

Not a problem. I'm sure if any speculation starts, any offending threads will be removed pdq.

Isn't he the Peugeot Cosworth guy?
(if no one's seen the Peugeot Cosworth, your missing out, it's totally unique, pug ugly but goes like hell!)

Sounds like the Pug Cossie.
Simple question - was it red?
