I don't really know if tragic is the right word for this, because racing a super car on a public street and dying isn't really a tragedy, it's just an expected outcome.
Maybe don't endanger others with your super car.
The tragedy is it wasn't a single car-single human accident. Passenger was ejected and died later, driver (I presume it was this guy) died in a fire in scene.
Completely preventable. Someone's hubris killed another human. At least this time the driver paid for his sin.
I'm hoping it was two dickheads who routinely did this and not just one dude with a supercar showing off to his buddy for the first time. The latter is definitely tragic, former is literally exactly what I expected happened when I read the headline. Very grateful the people watching along the sidelines didn't get hit, I hope they get the therapy they need for what they ended up seeing. That's a tragedy in itself.
Similar to the Liverpool (Football Club) player Diogo Jota who recently died as well. He was a good person from all accounts but he died while speeding in an expensive SUV along with his brother.
