motoGP starting race Sepang,Malaysia 2011_Marco Simoncelli crash

The Gresini Honda rider lost control of his bike on the second lap of the circuit in Sepang and was hit by Colin Edwards and then Rossi as he slid across the track.
The 24-year-old's helmet came off in the collision and he was taken to the medical centre for treatment, but died from his injuries.
Simoncelli suffered 'serious trauma' to the head, neck and chest in the accident on lap two.
The organisers cancelled Sunday's race as soon as the extent of Simoncelli's injuries became apparent.
On Twitter, close friend and seven-time champion Rossi wrote: 'Sic for me was like a youngest brother. So strong on track and so sweet in the normal life. I will miss him a lot.'
Spanish rider Dani Pedrosa had a dispute with fellow factory Honda rider Simoncelli earlier this season, but news of his rival's death left last season's championship runner-up reeling.
Repsol Honda's Pedrosa said: 'In a tragedy like this there is not much to say. I just want to give my condolences to his family and all the people who love him.
