- Jovy_Marcelo abstract "Edward Jovy Marcelo (July 21, 1965 – May 15, 1992) was a Filipino race car driver from Quezon City, Philippines, who was killed in practice for the 1992 Indianapolis 500.Jovy Marcelo came from a racing family, with his father Edward ("Eddie") racing dragsters, motorcycles, and speedboats in Southeast Asia (mainly in Malaysia, the Philippines and Macau). Jovy Marcelo began his racing career at the age of 11 in go-karts.Marcelo studied in the United States, at St. Mary's and at Armstrong University (Berkeley, California). Bitten with the racing bug, he pursued racing full-time right after graduating with a business degree. With the financial support of his father, Marcelo raced in junior formulas in the United Kingdom before moving to the New Zealand series.In 1990, Marcelo returned to the United States and competed in the Toyota Atlantic Championship with Duane Anderson's team. Marcelo finished second in the championship behind Mark Dismore and earned the Rookie of the Year title.In 1991, Marcelo continued in Toyota Atlantic, replacing Dismore in Bill Fickling's P-1 Racing Team. Marcelo won races at Lime Rock Park and Nazareth Speedway. Marcelo won the season championship, beating Jimmy Vasser by four points. In 1992, Marcelo graduated to the CART PPG Cup. Marcelo had a pre-season test with Derrick Walker's Walker Motorsports, and earned a seat with the Euromotorsport team owned by Antonio Ferrari. Marcelo competed in three CART PPG Cup events, finishing 14th in Surfers Paradise (Australia), 19th in Phoenix and 19th in Long Beach. (He did not score points in these events; CART points only awarded to 12th, plus pole and most laps awards.) In May, Marcelo was entered in the Indianapolis 500 driving a Lola T91/00-Cosworth DFS and participated in rookie orientation and practice for the event.On May 15, 1992, during warmups, Marcelo’s car snapped around at warmup speed and impacted on the right side entering turn 1 at 172 mph. To this day, speculation runs over the cause of the basal skull fracture under the right ear which killed Jovy instantly at such a pace.[citation needed] Some blame the sheer force of the rapid deceleration that occurred.[citation needed] Others fault the helmet Jovy wore, saying it was not the proper size or he only had an anti-rotational tether strap on the left side of his head, leaving his head and neck vulnerably exposed on the right (whereupon drivers subsequently wore them on both sides as a preventative measure; the HANS Device was not mandatory until 2001). Jovy was 26 at the time of his death, left behind his wife Irene, son Karsten and with an unborn son at the time who was given the name Jovy Nicolai.Following his death, the Toyota Atlantic Championship created the Jovy Marcelo Sportsmanship Award, which is given annually to the driver who best exemplifies the sportsmanship of Marcelo. The First Jovy Marcelo sportsmanship award was presented to Bert Hart for the 1992–1993 season. He named his first son Jovy Kakoa Hart. Frankie Muniz won the 2008 IMSA Cooper Tires Atlantic Championship Jovy Marcelo Sportsmanship Award.".
