Marco Simoncelli puts on a show for the fans at the end of the qualifying session for the Donington Park round of the 2009 MotoGP season.

Edit: 23/10/2011 Sadly, Marco passed away due to injuries sustained in a freak crash during the opening stages of today's Malaysian MotoGP race at Sepang circuit. Words cannot begin to express how MotoGP and racing fans are feeling today...

R.I.P Super Sic #58. You were one in a million and always will be to so many people.

I know that a large part of Italy is in mourning right now, and I'd like to offer my sincere condolences to you and your people.
You are not alone in your grief, all race fans in the world, and even more, share it with you and wish to ease your burden.

Forza Italia!

So many news articles don't portray his life in way too many more words, and I feel like this picture is enough. Don't remember him for his last moments, but everything else.

He was a great rider, he knew the crowd was there for him, he knew to just keep going.

Two wheels or four wheels, he's one of the greats from the Racing Community.

I felt sick to my stomach watching the live coverage as it happened. R.I.P Marco, the tall, lanky life of the MotoGP party. He was such a character...
