Rest in Peace Marco Simoncelli

[ben916]

Marco, Edwards and Rossi collided in turn 10 of the 2nd lap of the Sepang MotoGP race.
If you haven't seen the crash, it is rather grim as Marco's helmet comes completely off.

The race was cancelled and he passed away shortly after that...

EDIT: I can't even spell his last name right, sorry...

Wow, another racer (now cyclist) gone... Sad. Just saw the video... cringed seeing his limp body slide down the track. Made me think of how my wife felt imagining my body sliding down the freeway... TWICE.

Rest in Peace fellow rider.

Don't want to see the video, but can imagine.
