If it's true (as reported) that he was offered a $5m bonus for starting at the rear of the field and passing all the other cars, this suggests irresponsibility on the part of the organisers - Indy racing is enough of an accident waiting to happen withourt that sort of encouragement.  How terrible for his wife and children.RIP
