German co-driver Jorg Bastuck has died after being struck by another car during the Rally of Catalunya in Spain.

He was hit while changing a wheel after his Citroen C2, driven by compatriot Aaron Burkart, had left the road.

He was flown to hospital by helicopter in a serious condition but later died from his injuries, organisers said.

Bastuck was hit by a Ford Fiesta driven by Britain's Barry Clark and Scott Martin which left the road at the same place during Friday's second stage.

Burkhart and Bastuck were competing in the Junior World Rally Championship.

Thoughts are with Jorgs family.

:( Tragic!
