Journalist dies in Ariel Atom crash

Michael Cornette, a 35-year-old Belgian automotive journalist, was killed after the Ariel Atom 3 he was riding in crashed into a silo outside of Kortijk, Belgium, around 3:30 p.m. yesterday. Cornette was a passenger in the open-top, track-ready, yet street-legal cart when driver and owner Matthieu Desmet lost control on a long straight road. Desmet is in critical condition and under a medically induced coma. Cornette died at the scene.

Cornette was a journalist at a West Flanders newspaper and worked on an annual car guide in response to the local Brussels Motor Show. Cornette was on the test drive in the Ariel as part of his research. He left behind a wife and a two-year-old daughter.
