'Dear ‘Little Sister’,' the note - left at the crash site with flowers - began.

'Because when I saw you slip out in the middle of the night to go racing I didn’t leave a message telling you to come home as I usually did.
'I thought, as per usual, you would just go out for a joyride and then come back to the dormitory.
