Two rally driver died in this weekend.

One in Czech Republic.
one in Poland , the after math:
"Sylwester Olszewski died, Sunday, after his Honda Civic went off the tracks and hit a tree at 39th Swidnica Rally, south western Poland.

Right after the accident, the 31-year-old driver was taken to hospital but died on the way. Olszewski’s c-driver Michael Calek survived the crash but sustained injuries. Calek was hospitalized in Polanica Zdroj and his life is not in danger.

After the accident, Swidnica Rally officials decided to discontinue the race.

French Bryan Bouffier, who managed to overtake Polish drivers Michal Solowow and Tomasz Kuchar, was pronounced the winner. Olszewski and Calek held the fifth position in the race before the crash. "

Terrible news. As a forensic pathologist with experience in motor vehicle fatalities, at least I can say they didn't suffer and died doing what they loved
