SYDNEY: One of Australia's most famous motor racing drivers Peter Brock was killed in a rallying accident on Friday, motoring officials said.

Brock's death comes days after another famous Australian, Steve Irwin, was killed by a stingray barb to the chest in a diving accident.

Brock, who won Australia's famous touring car race at Bathurst a record nine times and many other endurance racing titles, was killed when his car slammed into a tree during a rally race in Western Australia state, Sky TV said.

“On behalf of the motor sport community, CAMS offers its sincere sympathy to Peter's family and many friends,” the Confederation of Australian Motor Sport said.

Brock, 61, was Australia's most famous motoring figure behind former Formula One triple world champion Jack Brabham.

His death came as Australians grieve after Crocodile Hunter Irwin, whose documentaries were seen by 200 million people around the world, was killed on Monday.
