A Fitting Tribute to Great Racer, and A True Gentleman
As most of you know, the Racing Community was robbed of a fine gentleman and driver when Justin Wilson succumbed to severe head injuries Monday Night at the age of 37, following a lap 180 crash at the Pocono Motor Speedway on Sunday afternoon.
Yesterday, his fellow Andretti Autosport teammate Marco Andretti drove Justin's #25 IndyCar across the Golden Gate bridge followed by fellow IndyCar drivers as a tribute to a talent taken too soon. Life and Racing must go on, but with heavy hearts.
R.I.P. Justin

Racers are a family Ben, and even as a retired racer myself, tragedies like last Sunday's accident hit like a hammer blow.
I had the privilege of meeting Justin Wilson only once, and he was a funny and very generous man, he'll be sorely missed.
