It makes many people re think about their life and how dangerous it is every time they get in that car, and are out on the race track. The Indy car championships are canceled now but the drivers gave a 5 lap solute to show their respect for their lost friend. there where many things that led to this crash a few of them being the speed of the cars, also how many cars they had running on this track played a big part in it. With this many people on the track it left the drivers with zero room for error. Several experienced drivers said that they where scared of a big crash like this happening before the race even started. Everybody says they hope the death of Wheldon will raise the bar for safety. They hope that after seeing this they will make some changes and more regulations to keep this tragedy from happening again. The people say there is no way to show how bad they feel for him, and his family. He had a wife and 2 kids.cnn news
