Michael Park Fatal Crash

Michael Park is killed during the 2005 Wales Rally GB. The Peugeot 307 WRC driven by Markko Martin-Michael Park went off the road at km 27.4 of the first run through Margam Park, Wales UK, during Special Stage 15 of the "Wales Rally GB", the 12th round of the 2005 World Rally Championship season. Their car slammed into a tree on the passenger side. Michael Park was killed on impact. The driver, Markko Martin, escaped injury.

The stage was immediately stopped, and the remaining two Special Stages were cancelled as soon as the officials learned of the tragedy. Peugeot withdrew their second car, driven by Marcus Gronholm, who would have finished third, as a mark of respect. Sebastien Loeb, who held a substantial lead in the rally, elected to take a time penality, thus dropping him to third in the overall classification behind Petter Solberg and François Duval. Loeb did not want to clinch the 2005 WRC Championship under the cloud of this day's terrible loss. Instead of a victory celebration at the end of the event, all of the teams gathered in Cardiff's Millennium Stadium to observe a minute of silence in respect to their fallen comrade.
