I'm afraid it could well be as the news rooms abuzz with it.
What the f#cks going on. Not a good week to be an Australian icon it seems. RIP Brocky.
Been poking around. The Australians got it now too.

What a shitful week. RIP Brocky. Drove the wrong brand of car, but was a bloody legend!
Wouldn't want to be a celbrity at the moment. Doesn't this kind of shit happen in threes?

Peter Brocks co-driver was Mick Hone of Mick Hone Motorcycles in Box Hill, Mick was taken to hospital where he was reported to be in a stable condition.
Sad loss to the racing world but he got to step off doing what he enjoyed doing..
