Sad news that V8 Supercar driver Jason Richards has passed away following a battle with cancer. He passed surrounded by family last night.

Despite the confusion on social media, it has now been confirmed. He was well regarded by all connected to the sport.

Awful. I had read a while back it had spread to his bones. 35yo. What a cunt of a thing life is sometimes I feel so bad for his young wife and kids.
