I have taken this from Steve's Place website, in case anyone has not seen it there. Dreadful loss of a young, talented, very popular member of the sidecar community. a sad weekend.
"It is with regret I inform you Ben Beckworth has died as a result of a road accident Saturday evening, near Leeds.
Funeral arrangements later
Coachbuilder by trade, and from a racing family, 22 year old Ben started racing in 2000 as a passenger and the progressed to driver in 2003 working his way up the rankings of the ACU/FSRA F2 Championship over the last 3 years.
Ben was particularly pleased with the results he achieved at the Southern 100 last year finishing a respectable 5th & 6th places.
I will always be remember Ben for his cheerful smile, whatever misfortune was thrown at him both mechanically and on the racetrack,
