What a sad story. Does anyone know more about the late Frank Richardson? I think this is the only UK midget car racing fatality although there have been quite a few in British speedway bike racing.

The only quote I have in regard to Frank Richardson's death was by his racing colleague Albert Brown. He recalled, "Late in 1958 we took part in a triangular meeting at Coventry. This also featured speedway bikes and sidecars in their own races and was similar to how they run meetings oin Australia and New Zealand.
“The meeting ended on a tragic note when a very good friend of mine Frank Richardson was killed.”
