I was looking on ITV-F1 and saw this article.

What supprised me was that the death occured at the premisis rather than at home or on the road. No details on the cause of death untill the coroner has decalred the cause of death.

Its a truely sad day for the team and formula 1.

Although the cause of death is unkon, i have respect but i would like to know the cause as it its a mystry to me what could have caused it & how it occured.

I think a few employes will be questioned over this about the events leading upto the incident.

I have some news on this, apparently he shot himself in the head. He was found dead just before midday on Wednesday on a footpath outside the teams UK base with a bullet to the head. Police are not treating the death as suspicious.

Seems like Alonso is back in action :D

What a snotty post, "leaky-S".

after having already covered a homicide, I can tell you that what ever the police tell you, dont believe it. Seriously, they have no problems lying until they feel like revealing the truth.

Police treat any death with a gun as suspicious until the case is closed, they just don't like to make it well known

Edit: not to say all police lie, I just mean that they will do what ever is best for their investigation, and if withholding information is what it takes, then thats what it takes.

there are plenty of great driving roads around the F1 base, and that also means plenty of roads to either "lose someone" or "make yourself lost".

Shame, they are like a big family, one I have had the priviledge of being part of for a day. I am certain they will all be very sad about this.

My thoughts are with the engineers friends and family. A sad day indeed for Renault-Sport F1. Lets hope they get a good result this weekend...

I can't think why besides personal troubles why he would do something like that.

Terrible.

Thoughts can only go out to his family & friends + work collegues.
