Well this is a double tragedy. First a young man lost his life. Second, we are sluffing off accountability and responsibility. His death was not due to inexperience. The track was flawed. Everyone knew about a hard corner where experienced Luger's has trouble with.
Notwithstanding the knowledge of the difficult portion of the track, right after the difficult section the track was completely open with no side rails and exposed pillar. That was a clear flaw in design. It was a fatal flaw.
Yes it was an accident but to say the death was the result of inexperience is untrue. We made a mistake. A life was lost and we corrected the mistake by fixing the exposed section of the track. Let's not deny we made an error. That's pointless and offensive.
