Police don't announce names of deceased until (at earliest) there has been a
formal identification. SOP.
Other official organisations,

Very sad loss.
Extremely talented driver, exciting to watch in action, and always came over as a thoroughly good bloke.

Another sad loss yesterday:
Thoughts and prayers for them and their families.
