That's bloody terrible.

Crashed into the wall and rolled, and ejected her from the vehicle:(

She was only 17, she had her whole life ahead of her.

My condolences go out to her friends and family.

oh my god....She was only 17 and lost the great road ahead...god that was terrible...she raced since she was nine!...thats hard to imagine, even worse than Hammond's one...

wow thats awful, makes you realise how lucky hammond was to survive his accident, my condolences to her friends and family

Truly tragic. It's one thing to say that an elder racer died doing what he loved. It's different for one so young to have to pay the ultimate price. Vaya con Dios.
