Not confirmed yet but sounds like he didn't make it.
Edit: 5 lap salute in his honour in 10 minutes pretty much confirms it though

Gutted - Remember him racing Jenson back in the day.
Motorsport article the other month discussing his testing of the 'safer' 2012 car, and desire for a drive next year.
RIP.

Rip Dan wheldon very sad day,
I'm at the race and I can say I have never seen such a violent accident in my life,
All the drivers are in tears and fans are silent with shock,
They have done a five lap tribute to Dan very moving indeed.
Were numb right now.

I've just seen a clip on TV of the crash. It's absolutely awful.

Horrific indeed.
Looking at some of those shots, I'm surprised there weren't any more fatalaties.

Horrific incident. Worrying how easily they caught fire compared to the f1 cars we're all used to seeing.
