Marco Simoncelli, a rising star in the world of MotoGP, died Sunday at the age of just 24 at Sepang, the same Malaysian circuit where the Italian won the 250cc world title in 2008. Warning: Video of the gruesome crash below.
The crash comes one week after Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon was killed in a 15-car accident in the IndyCar finale at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Simoncelli, nicknamed ‘Super Sic' and sporting a mop of curly hair, Simoncelli was predicted by many to be a future MotoGP world champion.
Simoncelli lost control of his Honda at turn 11 four minutes into the Malaysian MotoGP. Then, after regaining partial grip, Simoncelli's bike seemed to swerve across the track, his body completely unmoving and dangerously close to the ground - and into the path of American Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi of Italy.

I'm going to warn you all that it's fairly graphic or a good angle depending on how you look at it. To me it looks like he was unconscious before he got into the accident.
Rest In Peace Marco Simoncelli.
