"Italian motorcyclist Marco Simoncelli has been tragically killed in a crash during today's Malaysian Moto GP, race organisers have confirmed." - Daily Mail (Daily Fail).

One of my favourite riders, dead; he brought so much character to the field, pity to see it end like this for him. Thoughts go out to all his friends, family and countless fans. Rest In Peace.

(not for the feint hearted)

R.I.P Marco. You will be sadly missed. Also please pause for thought for poor Dan Weldon too who was tragically killed at the Las Vegas Speedway last week. My prayers and sympathy go to both of these Hero's families

I assumed a thread had bean made for him, so I didn't meantion him.

Again, thoughts to his friends and family.

I watched this, evil crash..

It looked as though he was trying to get the bike back with his knee after losing the front..

So so sad, as said above he was one of my fav riders and was just starting to get used to that Honda

real shame

R.I.P
