A retired forensic engineer has been appointed to investigate the death of a doctor at a racecourse in Northern Ireland.
Paul Conn, 60, from Lisburn, died in a collision at Kirkistown in Co Down in July 2019.
The Belfast GP’s inquest is due to be held in September, a coroner said.
Damien Coll has been asked by coroner Joe McCrisken to look at all aspects of the collision.
Mr McCrisken said: “I am awaiting a time scale from him for the preparation of the report.
“He will likely want to see the vehicle.”
The vehicle involved in the collision is being stored at a garage.
Arrangements are being made for Mr Coll to access it and to view the track where the incident took place, the coroner told the preliminary hearing.
