I've just got off the phone to my mate, he applied for a job with Apex Motorsport but someone else got the job over him. Turns out that the lad who got it was one of the passengers on the plane! My mates pretty shook up at the thought that he would have been on the plane if he'd got the job.
Pretty sad for all those involved... RIP

One of the guys on board was from my uni, knew him fairly well and he had just got the job. Pretty shocked about it.

Yeah. Really sound guy. Was just about to pop the question to his girlfriend aswell. Such a waste.
We are racing at the weekend so will get some stickers made up to commemerate him, as he did a lot of work on the car.
