Wheldon was 33. The crash started in front of Wheldon, the reigning Indianapolis 500 champion and 2006 series champion, and his car launched off of a car in front of him, flipped into the catchfence and erupted in flames on Lap 12. At one point during the crash, three cars were airborne and upside down. http://sports.yahoo.com/nascar/blog/from_the_marbles/post/Dan-Wheldon-killed-in-horrible-IndyCar-crash-at-?urn=nascar-wp4538 Miller Race Recovery Team Member

It was a really bad crash, lots of fire and airborne cars. I was afraid that it was going to have a tragic ending. It just looked that way from the start. I was worried when they raced the Indy cars at Loudon this past August. The track just doesn't seem wide enough for Indy cars. Evidently, neither is the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Today is a very sad day for IZOD Indycar Racing. thtdon
