The fact that Sport1 keeps on going with their scheduled programme without telling their viewers that Simoncelli has died is just unbelievable. And they recently extended their MotoGP contract until 2014... |

Damn, this is just terrible. I cant believe whats happened over the past week. I turned on Eurosport to watch the race replay to find they were showing Snooker instead. Now I know why. We've lost a hugely talented rider who had so much ahead of him. RIP Marco Simoncelli

Terrible accident, he was the man who brought some excitement to the (mostly boring) races this year. |

Oh god not again. This is terrible He had so much to look forward to. Awful times, these things always seem to happen together. I don't know what to say - there's just something about the motorsport community, I may not have watched Dan's or Marco's every race like I do some people but I was a big fan of both and it feels like I have lost two people close to me.RIP Marco. |

His 2008 250cc season was truly brilliant, that was when I became a fan of his. |

I was just watching the recording from this morning. Absolutely horrific, I knew this was unlikely to have a good outcome, logged on the net and found out the news. RIP Marco. |

When you know he was hit by Rossi on the neck, you can clearly imagine how it happened

"Just" Fall off? I mean he was hit by two massive bikes that carried some noticeable speed. I doubt that any helmet would have saved him there. |
