Moto GP crash.

Post by Zonda_ »

:shock: I’ve seen it from multiple angles on various sites and I’m staggered it ended so well, that could have been a Le Mans 1955 moment there. :shock:

Rossi was incredibly lucky not to be hit. That would have ended things for him!

Bloody hell, a fuck ton of dumb luck doing it's best to not putting more riders in hospital going on there.

I'm more impressed they both walked away from that.

Rossi looks like, well, he's just cheated death honestly.

I still remember watching that race live when Simoncelli sadly passed away and the camera had to pan away quickly :( . Yesterday's crashes were utter horrific, a reminder I don't have the balls to get a bike licence even if I were to do 1/10 of their speed.
