    I have just read that Marco has died of his injuries at the Malasian Gp. He was hit by Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi. RIP Marco. Today is a sad day for the MotoGp paddock

    Marco Simoncelli has died at Sepang MotoGP.
    The race was cancelled after 4 minutes when Simoncelli crashed and was hit by 2 following riders
    He lost his helmet in the accident and was motionless on the track.
    RIP Marco. A massive blow to MotoGP

    Have to admit was in tears when it happened. His will be a massively noticeable absence in the paddock and on the track. I hope his family and loved ones find a little comfort in the outpouring of support from his fans world wide.
