    The tragedy is it wasn’t a single car-single human accident. Passenger was ejected and died later, driver (I presume it was this guy) died in a fire in scene.

    Completely preventable. Someone’s hubris killed another human. At least this time the driver paid for his sin.

      I’m hoping it was two dickheads who routinely did this and not just one dude with a supercar showing off to his buddy for the first time. The latter is definitely tragic, former is literally exactly what I expected happened when I read the headline. Very grateful the people watching along the sidelines didn’t get hit, I hope they get the therapy they need for what they ended up seeing. That’s a tragedy in itself.
