RIP Marco Simoncelli

Woke up excited to watch race! Feel ill now.

Can't believe this, very sad and can't hold back tears. MotoGP needs personality and that's why I loved Simoncelli.

He will be dearly missed :rip

thoughts and prayers to family and friends (especially Colin and Vale).
 
I haven't watched the race yet, and I don't think that I want to now. I'm completely in shock....
 
I am having a hard time getting my head around this one. Rules don't always apply. He came back across the track. I will miss him.


Aren't people suppose to stop crashing at the end of the season? What is going on? Not good. It ain't NASCAR. You get hurt when you crash a scooter.
 
There are no words

RIP Marco
...long may you run
 
It's not supposed to be those who struggle and fight with every breath and beat of their heart to improve and succeed who are taken from us. But the cruel, cold hands of death and fate do not play fair or follow the path we desire.

In few other riders could the will to win, to fight and to succeed every second be as clearly seen as they were in Marco. He rode every corner like it was his last, and it's unbelievable and devastating for him to have truly reached it so soon.

He excited, delighted, enthralled and exasperated those who watched him over the course of his career. Sleep well, you soul of competition.

Damn. damn. damn. This really sucks. Thoughts are with his family and friends.
 
RIP Marco. I met you at Laguna. Very approachable, made yourself available to people and a really nice guy. When you're a super talent as you were I think that is probably the best compliment I can give. We will all miss what could have been.......
 
Prayers out to Colin Edwards as well. This crash will weigh heavily.
 
That's crazy. I remember seeing all of his fans lining up for his autograph at Laguna just a few months ago...

:rip :rose
 
RIP, Marco Simoncelli ........:(
