LE MANS, France -- Danish driver Allan Simonsen died Saturday following a crash at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, race organizers said. The 34-year-old Simonsen was taken to the hospital Saturday after his Aston Martin No. 95 crashed out around 10 minutes after the start of the race. Simonsen spun at high speed and his car skidded into the barrier at the Tertre Rouge corner. He died at the hospital soon after arrival "due to his injuries," organizers said. Simonsen was participating for the seventh time at the endurance race. The safety car came out after the accident and the race was held up for nearly an hour to repair the guard rail. Simonsen finished second in the GT2 class at Le Mans three years ago. He clocked the fastest time in qualifying Thursday in the GTE Am class. Simonsen and Danish co-drivers Kristian Poulsen and Christoffer Nygaard were leading the GTE Am class in the world endurance championship after topping their category at Silverstone in April and finishing second in Spa-Francorchamps last month.

The Six Nations Councils decision to trial bonus points in 2017 has met with a positive response.Seventy percent of readers who responded to our poll?said that they were in favour of the move, but how would the new system have affected previous championships?ESPN has looked at four recent tournaments that ended with a tie for top spot, to see if the winners would have been different had bonus points been used.2015Three teams -- England, Ireland and Wales -- went into Super Saturday last year with a chance of winning the Six Nations.Wales kicked things off with a thumping win over Italy that briefly put them in the driving seat. Ireland followed suit against Scotland in Edinburgh, though, to take control and not even a seven-try win for England against France at Twickenham could knock them off top spot.At that time it was only points difference that separated the three sides, and that would be the same outcome had bonus points been applied. Each team would have ended with two from their five games.2014Another tournament in which three teams entered the final round with a realistic chance of winning the championship.Englands lunchtime win over Italy gave them hope of finishing top of the pile, before the other two challengers -- France and Ireland -- went head to head in Paris.In the end a 22-20 win for the Irish ensured they edged England on points diifference.dddddddddddd Unfortunately for the Red Rose, that would have been the way things panned out even with the use of bonus points.2013One of Warren Gatlands finest matches as Wales coach, as a team featuring Justin Tipuric at openside flanker tore England apart to snatch the title.Wales had begun the championship with a resounding defeat to Ireland but England had no answer amid a cauldron of noise in Cardiff.However impressive the performance, though, it would not have been enough had bonus points been in use.

Indeed, their bonus-point win in Edinburgh would have been only the second extra point they picked up in the tournament.With Ireland securing their third of the championship in Rome, it would have left the French second, as the Irish claimed the title by a point.
