Ten years on ,you can still feel the overwhelming heartache of everyone, not only the loss of such a young man but the potential of greatness.R I P Marco
I was married to the most amazing Thai lady, sadly I lost her to cancer, I still have her 46 'The Doctor' T-shirt in my bedroom window to show the world her strength, just like the greats. We sadly watched this happen live and we were also big fans of SideShow Bob aka Simo 58 and his raw talent, he was a pleasure to watch and to watch him grow through the classes. I remember we cried our eyes out watching his funeral as if it was our own family, my wife and I. Love live Simo 58 and all those amazing folks that bring us such joy and entertainment, will never forget you all... xxx
His immediate family lost their family member which is tragic. I always felt bad for Rossi having dealt a fatal blow to one of his best friends. He must have been devastated even though there was nothing he could have done different.
@jholmes82 None!! He was always a very erratic rider and caused lots of crashes. Was good but nothing special - never won a motogp race, so let's not get sentimental and say he'd have been a multiple world champion - he wouldn't!! Unfortunately this fate was always likely to be awaiting him
Was on UK time and due to having young infants twins, was awake early, and after a feed got the kids and the wife back to sleep and quietly watched the race.......can remember the smallest details of that early morning. Wasn’t the first loss I’d witnessed as a racing fan being an avid TT fan, but was one of the hardest. A terrible loss. A year after, I moved to Singapore and the Malaysian GP was a short trip I made every year. The love and respect that circuit shows every year for Marco is very special. Godspeed Marco. One of a kind ❤️
The sad thing is he had a lot of potential. Only 24. And was getting very close to Stoner, Pedrosa, Doviziozo and Lorenzo in every race. In his last finished race he finished just 2 seconds behind Stoner in Philip Island and ahead of Dovi and Pedrosa. RIP Simoncelli 😥😥
That's not "the sad thing", how much potential he did or didn't have doesn't really matter, he had a full life ahead of him, which would've included a lot more than just racing. These kinds of comments also imply that it would be less sad if a rider has less potential.
I got up early here in the UK to watch this race and remember sitting stunned at the very brief footage of Marco on the circuit. I just knew I’d witnessed a fatal accident, so awful. RIP SuperSIc
He handled it pretty well, I believe his position forces him to publicly speak in english quite often, so I dont think it was an issue for him. Obviously, talking about death is no joke, so my point is that I dont believe what was difficult for him was transmiting the message in english, but simply saying it due to the nature of the message itself.
i still remember this day like it was yesterday... i was 10 and i was on track with my brother and father. we do karting so it was a classic sunday training. we were on track when the tragedy occourred. then during a pause we decided to go to the circuit's coffee to get some water and watch some laps of the race on television. we entered and everybody there was looking sad. then i watch the screen and i see the red flag and the commenter's tone of voice was way more serious than i had ever heard. but at the moment i didnt realize what happened, and as a kid i was afraid to ask because i knew it was something serious. on the way back i asked my father and he told me. i remember that i felt more angry than sad but i didn't know why. i just felt that i had to go back on track, for him. i still do karting but i never felt the same when driving again like that day.
Firstly, Edward hit marco's back. The hit turns marco's hands and head lift up. Suddenly, Marco's hand ran over by Rossi's tyre and Marco's head get hit by down body of the bike. The crash turns Rossi's bike had a bump jump and broke Marco's helmet and Hand. It's weird this slow motion video shows everything
I remember my father waking me up and telling me and Marco had died. I thought and hoped that it was a cruel joke. I couldn't believe it and still can't honestly.
As i am entering my room,taking off my shirt and rapidly clicking the remote control to turn on the tv cos i know the race is already on. Picture starts showing on the screen and in that very moment Marco is getting hit in the head. I couldnt believe what i was seeing. Terrible tragedy. The worst thing that was spinning around in my head was- At the press conference before the race that weekend ,Marco said he had a good feeling for the race and was expecting something amazing out of it 😢 RIP SuperSic
I have seen the Race live on TV. When the helmet ripped off, i knew Marco wouldn‘t surrive. I really startet crying. What a terrible accident. I will never forgot Marco. R.I.P
Marco Simoncelli started my interest in MotoGP, his riding style was just spectacular to watch, nearly 13 years on (at the time of comment) I still sadly miss him 😢
His l/n sounds sort of Italian... was he? Sleep tight, Mr Simoncelli...God, how I HATE the youngsters' deaths! a tear and a prayer 4 you from GREECE, rest in Paradise (I m a girl)
AGV or any other racing helmets are for standalone crashes and impacts, not any helmet in the world can resist the force of a bike hitting at 180km/hr.
In modern GP helmet there is a feature of Emergency Quick Release, the function is to (you guess it) to put it off easly, it helps the medical team to make a quick reaction if the rider is unconcious after a crash. In Marco's case, i'm afraid there is something to do with this emergency feature. Marco's head was being hit by Colin Edward while he was in +150kph and unfortunately that impact accidently engage the emergency release of that AGV. I think that's one the reason why the helmet was off from Marco's head
3 days before in 🇱🇾 Gheddafi was killed, and it was a good news for the world, but 3 days after the worsted day for who loved this sport. Unforgettable days.
Considerando tutto quello che è successo dopo, tutti i morti in mare e come sta messa la Libia adesso (ovvero non esiste più), proprio una bella notiziona l'assassinio di Gheddafi...
good news for the world? good news for the American controlled mass.media.maybe, the death of Ghadaffi triggered a civil war that has been on for 10 years and has killed 40.000
In the medical world we call this a Trauma Code. Code = Cardiac Arrest and Trauma = some type of external force or mechanism causing injury. Survival rates are less than 2% for these patients. Many medical entities have protocols in place to manage these patients with the least evasive processes and then executing orders from physicians to cease all resuscitative efforts. These patients unfortunately just don’t make it. If super sic miraculously survived he himself would have asked why he was allowed to live. He would have had no real chance at life again. R.I.P super sic 🙏
I've always thought - watching the footage many times - that Marco had suffered some sort of health incident before the collision (heart attack, stroke?) - Marco looks unconscious even before Edwards and Rossi hit him and Marco's bike was already on a very strange trajectory. If so, no doubt an autopsy would have missed (not even looked for) any signs of pre-impact health issues because they would have been convinced the fatal traumatic blows were applied by Rossi and Edwards. The whole weekend was KeyStone Cops - remember the footage of the paramedics dropping his body off the stretcher as they tried to negotitate a fence.
It was the darkest 2 weeks of motorsports that month in 2011. 1st Dan Wheldon in Las Vegas and then Simo. May them rest in peace.

rip marco, you were goin places fast in moto gp, you will be missed
What a tragic loss for his family, girlfriend, the world and MotoGP. RIP Super Sic.
The poor Dr guy, he should not have had to go to a damn press conference and speak a second language!
I agree, absolutely not necessary for him to be put through that.
as the head of medical in an international racing series, it is normal to talk english
He handled it pretty well, I believe his position forces him to publicly speak in english quite often, so I dont think it was an issue for him. Obviously, talking about death is no joke, so my point is that I dont believe what was difficult for him was transmiting the message in english, but simply saying it due to the nature of the message itself.
If you choose to take on a position of employment then you have to take the good with the bad......that's life princess.
I think he might have wanted to go.
We miss you Marco RIP brother
I was with Marco one week before at Phillip Island. A down to earth cool guy.
2022 and this is still hard to watch. May he continue to Rest In Peace 🙌🏾
All these years later, and still sorely missed! It was such a tragic day in motorsport history. R.I.P. Big Man ❤
Marco was a future superstar in motogp no doubt, we miss him.
As a grown man I cried for Marco.
I saw it live and I cried too

How could a bike break them
Oh because they are big bike not like the original ones right?
@hansyates8554I always felt so bad for Rossi. They were such good friends.
Too sad to hear. Terrible.
i remember seeing the helmet flew during the crash and was like 'wtf is that'
Such a Tragedy
I remember watching this race as a 7 year old. I remember knowing something was not ok as my dad called my mom out of shock to tell her what happened
Hard to watch. Rest in power champ
RIP Super Sic #58.
:'( u will be missed Marco♥♥♥♥♥
how is it already 12 years, it feels like yesterday. Miss you Sic 💔
I remember my father waking me up and telling me and Marco had died. I thought and hoped that it was a cruel joke. I couldn't believe it and still can't honestly.

They worked on him for 45 minutes. Let me rephrase this , they attempted cpr for 45 minutes. They never gave up on him. Going above and beyond ✌️💯....
RIP SIC58 never forget his TV interview with someone when he saw himself riding and he said 'I SAY FAAACCKK' was so funny and amazing
Marco was due to take the factory ride at Honda the following year after Casey Stoners retirement. The next world champ taken to early.

I cannot believe the AGV helmet strap broke so easily. I would never ever use that make of helmet, I ony use a high quality Arai and NOTHING else
I believe that such straps are designed to give at certain pressure and that it was not a fault.
