I keep reading about concerns over the financial welfare of the Wheldon family. Paul Tracy's said that the $5M should be given to support his kids, Bernard has launched a donations site etc... I don't want to this to come across insensitive, because it's not meant to be one bit, but I would have thought that Dan Wheldon's success would have left him and his family quite comfortable and surely he would also have had significant life assurance cover [even given the dangers of his sport]. Is this not the case ? Is there an even further upsetting footnote to this tragedy ?
