The only thing I could discern was that this man probably did some type of sports, though I'm less than certain about that.

He was a legendary race car driver for NASCAR. Basically the Messi of stock car racing (idk much about football. Or NASCAR for that matter)

He was an excellent (arguably one of if not the best) race car driver in the American NASCAR series.

Then he died an avoidable death because he refused to wear the HANS device, which was optional at the time, and which likely would’ve saved his life in his fatal crash.
