Title: RIP Craig Jones Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, August 4, 2008, 17:41:02 A 23 year old English motorbike racer in World Supersport, he sustained serious head injuries in a 170mph tank-slapper through Clack Curve at Brands Hatch which left him lying unconscious in the middle of the track. He regained consciousness in the air ambulance but died in hopsital today.
He was a seriously talented motorbike racer and there were high hopes for him. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/7540679.stm RIP Craig. Title: Re: RIP Craig Jones Post by: Leggett on Monday, August 4, 2008, 20:12:27 i've just seen the accident, it doesnt look good at all. shame.
