RIP William Dunlop

[Blue in Munich]

Just seen that William Dunlop has been killed in an accident at the Skerries 100 practice. A talented racer and a popular guy, and the 3rd member of the family to die racing.

RIP William, and thanks for the memories.

I’m not a race fan so didn’t actually know of him.
But very sad to hear.
Thoughts with the family.

Got to feel for Michael, the only remaining racer in the family.
Another tragedy in a legendary family
RIP

Not the most well known family member but a guy that no one had a bad word about. McIlroy and McDowell both commented and offered their condolences as it’s a big part of life in that part of the world.

Indeed; can’t begin to think how he must feel having lost his father, brother and uncle to the sport that he still competes in.
