MotoGP rider Marco Simoncelli was killed in an accident in Malaysia today.

It's starting to get a bit scary...

BS. Tire comes into a cockpit and smashes the drivers head in. Happened plenty of times in open cockpit stuff.

Famous people die in threes.

Wheldon
Huseman
Simoncelli

Theoretically this should be it.

How so? Of all open cockpit racing, F1 takes the most precautions against tires flying around like that, in particular since the last death in F1 was caused by a rogue tyre. Think about it, in comparison to pre-2000 racing, how often do you see tyres fly off of F1 cars? It's been happening less and less each year.
The only BS here is that famous people die in threes idea? Why d'you even put that?

Also I might point out that both Rick and Jeff Huseman were sadly lost

So the Motorsport world has sadly lost 4 people in the last 2 weeks..  :frown:

I didn't know that Jeff raced, but I'd heard that he'd been lost too.

@Scorp: Its an open wheel car. If it can happen in NASCAR where a whole car DOESN'T put the entire force of the hit into another car's tire, then it can happen in F1 where a whole car does put the entire force of the hit into another car's tire.

Trolling about someone who died isn't funny.

I think this is the right place to put it:

Marco Simoncelli. R.I.P. your flamboyant nature and great riding skills will always be missed. Thank you for blessing the MotoGP world and your legacy shall live on.
