Absolutely horrible  The guy had so much talent, there's no doubting he would've been world champion in the future. RIP Super Sic. |

He had a rough start to the season but his recent races showed his true promise. A champion in the making.
He might have stirred things up a but with other riders, but he was one hell of a character, one that will be missed.

Devastating news, Marco was a real character in a sport which is severely lacking at the moment.
Have no doubt that he was a champion of the future.
A very sad day.
RIP Marco

when you've got dislikeable pricks like pedrosa and lorenzo in a sport someone with character like Sic was a breath of fresh air. RIP Marco

This is the water.
And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.
The horse is the white of the eyes and dark within.

Nasty looking accident but completely unavoidable. Let's hope there's no over-reaction about this though.

I don't know much about Moto GP, but did his helmet come of as a result of being hit or before? Not sure how that happens or if it was a contributor to his death. Horrible though, no way it could be avoided |

Oh right, I guess there isn't much you can do to stop that in those circumstances.

My other half was just saying one of the GP commentators has a gut feeling Rossi will retire now as he was close friends with Marco and he doesn't know how he will cope with him being involved in the crash etc?

I dont think he will, I believe he is mentally strong enough to carry on. |
