Oh no.... Losing these drivers, and so many young ones is awful.

Sean was supposed to drive this weekend at Petit Le Mans, and he's been in a few awesome battles this season in the ALMS. He'll be missed.

He had tweeted that jokingly that he hoped there weren't any kangaroos. I guess his student hit a tire wall and the car burst into flames...

Guy Edwards son for you F1 fans... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

RIP Sean Edwards. Such a tragedy, and so young.

Ironically Guy Edwards helped pull Niki Lauda from his fiery wreck in '76.

And I think Sean portrayed his father doing that in the new movie Rush.
