Jesuschrist. Good night, sweet prince
At least he died in his home country and not in fucking Russia
Literally who and literally what
Who could have seen this coming? Always seemed like such a safe sport to me

>Following an incident during today’s Moto2™ Free Practice 2 at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, it is with great sadness that we have to report the passing of Luis Salom (SAG Team).
kek, nice of them to leave the trademark on this text, they must be truly devastated.
Does anyone have the video of the crash?
Rest in peace.

you can just about see the bike hit the barrier first and then salom slide right into the bike
>>68070092
That's unlucky as fuck, he wasn't even going that fast

160 kph - 100 miles/hour, you'd need more luck to survive than to die i think.
>>68070186
That was his nickname, you idiot.

>>68070253
Uhh, yeah, I figured that out myself. Asking people to pay respects using a fucking hashtag is just cheap as fuck IMO.
>>68069134
>it's actually true
fuck, and he was very young too
DEP
>>68069134
>all those barriers
completely useless because he got pierced by his own bike
RIP in pieces Luis.
We tend to forget how dangerous these kind of sports are, specially the bike ones. At least racing cars nowadays are fucking indestructible, but there is nothing they can do to make bikes safer.
Rest in peace.
>>68070698
>fucking indestructible
thats a problem though.
the only way to be better off a crash is to lose kinetic energy.
thats why modern racing (and road) cars lose like all the parts even in relatively small crashes - they try to lose energy.
if you crash in a "tank" for example, the whole kinetic energy of your own body would destroy yourself - whats exactly what happens when you drop down a bike for example.
>>68070149
If only he raced Nascar he'd still be alive
Own fault
Why did he crash? Was he trying to?
>>68070149
asphalt runoffs where a mistake

China, how do you feel about your Great Wall being supplanted as the best wall on the world by the new USA border wall?
>>68069134
great, more room for muslims
Nobody watching manx TT? Those guys are completely nuts.
F1 layout and this does not happen. And people complained that their changes were to drastic...
Well done track organisers, well done killing one of your own.
>Tilke layout
rip luis and montmelo
>>68076598
>track owners
>caring about anything besides shekels
why has no one make a motor/sp/ort general thread yet?
>>68076598
Original layout and original gravel and he'd be ok.
>>68070411
Youre a fucking moron.
Nobody is making money off the hashtag. It simply makes it easier to sort through millions of tweets and only read the ones relating to this "mexicano"
>>68079870
I wondered the same, but I'm shit at making them. No idea where OP gets his schedules and times from
>>68080662
I made a blank one in honor of a death, so....yep, just go to the catalog and type "Motor" it's there
