    Any RT of Ashley Judd claiming he's dead is a fake.

    But the lack of news ...

    Since the IndyCar title has already been settled, would they just cancel the rest of the race? Would they refund all the ticketholders' money?

    It's not even that. It's the fact that some people are maliciously making up fake tweets in other peoples' names about something as serious as someone's passing. Seriously, show some fucking respect, people.

    Unless somebody hacked his account, this is a real tweet that I doublechecked:

    They just showed him on ABC sitting in the pits with his wife or girlfriend. Looks pretty distraught.

    Girlfriend. Speed's Tom Jensen pointed out that when drivers are crying and hugging, it's a bad sign.

    Shit.

    We've lost Dan Wheldon.
