The international rally Gumball 3000 claimed the second victim today - Margarita Chepunjoska, the wife of Vladimir, who died two days ago, has passed away today in the Skopje Clinic Center.

Margarita was severely injured in the accident that took place on Wednesday, when a participant of the rally crashed his Porsche into the car driven by her husband.

British citizen Nicholas Morley was speeding in his Porsche at the Struga-Qafasan road, when it collided head-on with Chepunjoski’s Golf.

Yesterday, an investigative judge of Struga Court ordered 30 days of temporary detention to Nicholas Morley. The Police filed a formal accusation against him for “heavy violation of traffic safety” and “failure to provide help to an injured person”.

Macedonian police told today that no charges will be raised against his co-driver, the British citizen Matthew McConville.

Just heard this news too.
The actual events of the day seems heavily shrouded in rumours right now, but seems a little more genuine than yesterday.

However the outcome of this sad incident is totally unacceptable.
Team Polizei actually urged other participants to slow down only that morning.

Hardly suprising as Alex is a former cop, and has seen the results that unfolded that day.

And typically alot of the members of the Gumball 3000 forum have blinkers on about the situation and what happens in the event....Gumball Corp should be partly responsible, I mean making a target of 800miles in one day through cities etc with the promise of a huge party at the other end, how did they think people were going to drive? IMO its encouraging dangerous driving.

Tis very saddening but it was disaster waiting to happen, theres too many idiots with very little driving ability doing the Gumball these days.
