marco simoncelli was killed after being involved in a horrific crash in the motogp race at sepang, malaysia. The italian lost the front end of his bike on the second lap of the race and fell to his right, with the bike's wheels continuing to grip and throwing him into the path of colin edwards and valentino rossi.
The 24-year-old simoncelli had his helmet knocked off in the accident, which occurred when the italian lowsided from his bike at turn 11.
Simoncelli, who was motionless on the track after the impact, had been fourth at the end of lap one. Edwards also fell but escaped serious injury, while rossi, on a ducati, was able to return to the pits.
The race was red flagged immediately, and cancelled a few minutes later when it emerged that simoncelli was in a critical condition. He died soon afterwards.

Rossi might stop racing, if reports are correct.
