Rossi's Ducati was also surging through, and by lap seven the Italian had taken third from Lorenzo. He then went down the inside of Stoner for second into the first corner, but though the Ducati nosed ahead, he then lost control and fell, sliding into Stoner and eliminating the Honda. Rossi was able to continue at the back of the field and would later visit the Honda garage to apologise to Stoner.
That was a great race which isn't unsual for Moto GP!.I like Stoner and I was really happy following him to Victory in the 2007 World Title for Ducati.I must say though,that Stoner was really a dickhead when Valentino Rossi went to appologise for his slip that also took Stoner out.Stoner crashed so many times due to a lack of front-end grip in the last 3 years at Ducatti just Like Rossi did at jerez,and it just sounded really pathetic that Stoner accused Rossi of having "a lack of talent" " title="rolling eyes" /> when Rossi is undoubtedly one of the top 3 most talented riders in history! Still you can't take competitors words too seriously in the heat of the moment...
I'm Happy for Lorenzo in winning that race.I've been a fan of his since his 1st race in Moto GP in 2008!
ZitatSimoncelli dies from injuries suffered in Malaysian GP crash Autosport 23.10.2011
Marco Simoncelli has died from the injuries he sustained in a crash on the second lap of the Malaysian Grand Prix. He was 24.
Simoncelli was fighting for fourth with Alvaro Bautista when he lost the front of his bike and slid across the circuit, into the path of Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi, both of whom appeared to hit the Honda.
Simoncelli lay stricken on the track after the crash, his helmet having come off during the incident.
He was taken by ambulance to the circuit's medical centre, but at 4.56 it was announced he had succumbed to his injuries.
Simoncelli had established himself as one of the most exciting new stars in MotoGP this season, his second year at the top level with the Gresini Honda team.
A former European 125cc champion, Simoncelli was a race winner and frontrunner during three years in world championship 125cc racing before coming to the 250cc series in 2006.
He spent four seasons with the Gilera team, with the breakthrough coming in 2008 when he not only became a winner for the first time, but charged to the title, beating Alvaro Bautista.
Simoncelli stayed on in 250cc to defend his title in 2009, although he narrowly lost the crown to future Gresini MotoGP team-mate Hiroshi Aoyama after an early-season injury left him playing catch-up.
He secured a MotoGP seat with Gresini for 2010 and became ever more competitive as his rookie season went on.
That earned him a factory specification Honda this season, and he took full advantage to get among the frontrunners from the outset.
Pole positions at Catalunya and Assen came amid a run of six straight front row starts, although incidents in races meant he could not deliver the results his speed promised - and led to rows with other riders.
But Simoncelli calmed his style as the season progressed, finally taking his maiden MotoGP podium at Brno, and achieving a career-best second in Australia just a week ago. He had also secured works Honda equipment again with Gresini next season, ensuring he would have started 2012 as a potential MotoGP winner.
I can't believe this happened... RIP Marco " title="shake" /> I don't know how could he lost his helmet, he was almost off his bike when Edwards hit his back and maybe his head and they also collided with Rossi. I can't imagine how his family and the other riders feel right now, especially those who was involved with this terrible accident. Safety has to be improved. He was such a good rider and a great person, I'm still in shock " title="shake" /> " title="shake" /> " title="shake" />
I'm so sad.........poor Marco. " title="tears" /> My deepest condolences to his family,friends and girlfriend. I still can't believe to what happened,I dont understand the dinamic of the accident,why he was still attached at the moto when he was falling,usually they separate,the bike on a side and the driver on the other side ......I don't know...see the broke helmet and see Marco lay without moving was terrible. There are no words.......... It's so so so sad. Only 24 years old... " title="tears" /> RIP
