Yes
I hope to God that bloke is alright. Has anyone else seen the crash?
It don't look good when his crash helmet gets ripped off.
 
Yes seen it very bad crash lets hope that he makes it race cancelled due to everyone attending to him in the medical centre
 
This is just terrible news, made me shed a tear. I loved his antics, brilliant racer, awesome hair and his go for it attitude even when it narked others a bit. Rip x
 
Yes just seen the news very sad day he was a young rider with a bright future in front of him R.I.P Marco
 
A tragic loss, just read the news,
R.I.P Marco
 
The world and MotoGP in particular will be a poorer place for his passing.

RIP Marco :'(
 
I'm sat here shaking, I just can't believe such a young and entertaining rider like Marco has gone. He will be greatly missed.
 
Horrible accident, nothing that Edwards or Rossi could do and got to feel for them.

Been a tough couple of weeks for the motorsport, makes it hard to explain why I love the sport
 
A very sad day for Moto GP my thoughts are with his family and the Moto GP lads and ladies.

RIP Simoncelli
 
RIP to an up and coming great, I was in the paddock at Laguna Seca and got to wish him well after he had time for quite a few fans there.
I liked his riding style, he was aggressive and was only getting wiser with age.

At Laguna Seca

Not the best picture but it does show him with the crowd

Gutted, so much promise gone in a flash.

RIP Marco.
 
Seen it live this morning, horrible horrible accident

Thoughts and prayers with his family, such a loss to MotoGP
 
I can't believe this!!! Just yesterday I was talking to a friend about the unfortunate accident that took the life of Craig Jones (from the Parkalgar Honda team) and today I find out that Super Sic had the same misfortune?!!! :bang::bang:

Last year japanese rider Shoya Tomizawa didn't make it after a crash in Moto2 and a few days ago a pilot died in Indycar racing:(.

We know how hard and fast these guys drive/ride but also how dangerous motorsports are but we hope to never hear this sort of news:shake:.

I'm shaking...

R.I.P Marco Simoncelli :(:(

Was absolutely shocked to hear this when I got a text off a friend.

I was heading home on the train and am glad I missed the race as wouldn't have wanted to see the accident.

Marco was an absolute breath of fresh air to Moto GP. So so talented and I love the way he ruffled a few feathers amongst the big boys. I know a few people who have met him and they all say he was an absolute gent.

RIP big man, you'll be sorely missed.
 
He really was a breath of fresh air on the grid & will be sorely missed.

You've also got to feel for Rossi & Edwards, it's going to be a doubley traumatic day for them. :(

They both tried as hard as they could to avoid things. You could see Rossi sit up pretty quickly as he realised what was about to happen in the next half a second.
But it's so fast at Sepang. Poor Colin Edwards had absolutely no chance to avoid Simoncelli.
 
Indeed a tragic accident.

I think you should take that video down Richard.
 
It's a very sad loss of a big character, having seen the accident It left me feeling pretty shocked and upset and something I don't want to see again.

RIP Marco
 
If you do not want to watch it do not click on it, It is a sad day for all but taking it down will not solve anything as you can go to 100's oif places to see it. We never took the ones down if the indie driver so where is the difference???

I did just watch the start of the video because i had not seen any footage of the incident, Such a great spirited rider & a very sad loss, Valentino & colin will no doubt be beating themselves up about it but could not have reacted any quicker to avoid him. Rip Marco
