i think the motogp & SBK official will take note of this accident....although is very unlikely to happen often but there's safety issue like this need to be overcome in the future.... RIP marco...

What is your opinion for Rossi to continue the race after the incident [ After knock , he continued his journey ].

He slide into the rear biker path and got hit by them, that is why he had neck and body injury. So sad for this to happen, and especially in Malaysia......

He can't do much, as this should be attended by the medical people.......

front end lost traction at a corner,he lose his balance off the bike,then it was like, the front tire grip back on the surface and just cut across both Colin Edwards and Rossi. Bike was just sliding onto Colin & Rossi's path. If im not mistaken, it was at turn 10,a average / fast speed corner?? ..I think it was Colin front tire that crash him at the back of Simon head / neck which caused the helmet to come off...Rossi also crash over him.. But from the replays, i cud tell that the outcome is bad....
Colin ended up with a dislocated shoulder...
the poor fella lost his front end, but being a racer that he is, he brought the front end back by lifting the bike on his knee-sliders. but as he was trying to do so, his bike was already veering towards the other two's bike..

in the meantime where crowd and race becoming the unexpected...

there's different story happened at the main entrance....where a magazine's editor buying ticket caught and accused selling "free ticket" to guest instead the ticket was bought (amount close to 3k with recipt)....instead of properly checking the reciept,the security guy directly pull the victim into security house and found NOT GUILTY....but no apology from them and those confisticated ticket was never returned to the victim....

u can read the whole story(mixed malay and english) here: Justice For Abol and Justice for All rider and bikers - Dinding | Facebook

and the complete discussion(in malay) here: APa sudah jadi SIC? Abol Saman SIC!!!

p/s:u can like the FB page to show your support/give opinion...it is open to discussion :adore:

Wah! never knew got so much problem......
yup..quite a lot of issue this year...(actually also a few years back with this new management)

but this was the worst ever.....i wonder how the security guy doesn't even know the organizer of motogp support race person...even after 4years straight doing it... :banghead:



p/s:seems like SIC need to train their "temporary staff" better la.... :thefinger:

Big events sometimes you don't have personnel so you just grab whatever you can or have in offer. Training takes time and money. Maybe they just got crash course only. This is always happening.....:banghead:
