In a grid dominated by politics and frankly uninspiring racing - dominated by the Factory Hondas - Simmo stood out as a shining star of raw talent, with a hunger to win, plus the modesty, character and sportsmanship to put the rest of the grid to shame. It's a tragedy that motorcycle racing has been robbed of such a talent and personality. My condolences go out to his family, friends and girlfriend - and to Rossi & Colin Edwards who much feel terrible about their unavoidable part in their friend and fellow racer's tragedy.
I feel awful. Couldn't even ride the bike today, despite the sunshine and free time. Gutted.

R.I.P Marco
Truly shit news. What a loss to everyone. You have to wonder if that hairstyle contributed to the helmet coming off.
The support of the fans is very important to me, in fact in the Italian races with a lot of my fans in the crowd I always seem to manage to give something more. Sometimes too much...
When I see an opportunity to overtake I decide to go, no thinking, just go! MotoGP is too close to think about overtakes. If you think you miss the chance.

Mmmm interesting theory, to me it looked like rossi's front wheel may have hit the back of his neck under the helmet causing it to come off, saw it live when they showed him lying on the track with no helmet on I thought the worst, extremely sad for his family and friends.
