Seem like Former Le Mans winner JJ Lehto has been in a boat crash that has killed someone and left himself badly hurt.
70 kph into a bridge!

Well, 2 Finnish riding a boat at 4 AM - not unlikely that alcohol was in the game

if JJ was indeed the one behind the wheel of that boat and alcohol use and excessive speed can be proven than he's in for a lot of trouble I'm afraid.

Hate to hear of anyone ending up in a situation like that. Doesn't matter where you are, if someone loses their life, and a motor vehicle & booze is invloved, the authorities are going to come down hard.
Not much of a fan of Lehto, especially after his Petit LM temper tantrum years ago, thought that one the most childish things I've ever seen from a racing driver. But as I said, don't like to see that happen.
