Herbert Breiteneder ?

On Rallycross.com there's a Seat Ibiza Kit Car for sale. The owner is Herbert Breiteneder. Is he currently a rally-driver ??

Very sad, another good man gone. Godspeed, "Breiti"!

He left the road in a fast corner, reasons unknown yet, and crashed into some trees before his SEAT Ibiza KitCar plunged down a ledge. After they took Herbert off the car he died within minutes, AFAIK due to a bursted aorta.
