Default OT: Another death in motorsports

Up and coming motogp rider Marco S. dies in the Malaysian GP. His helmet came off when he was hit by two riders! Only 24 yrs old. Another sad day. Ciao Marco....

Horrible. He had a great and big personality in this era when pro riders/drivers stay on the corporate message at all times. He also has had a tough season and made some questionable moves in earlier races. I hope for his legacy that it was simply a clean racing accident. RIP.
