Fuck!

Not really, IIRC it's just a short run across the grass. No gravel traps at all. Some riders lay the bike down to avoid rejoining the pack at a right angle as it exits turn 2. Biaggi went straight on and rejoined yesterday.

I was pissed off at the commentators who referred to "an incident" causing Super Pole to be cancelled but didn't give any details. The first mention was one of the riders holding up a sign "Fly with the angels Oscar McIntyre". Next mention I heard was Marco Melandri offering condolences to family and friends after the first race.

I think it was Johnathon Greens attempt, or the production company's attempt to make it look like motorcycle racing is totally safe to he international viewers.... Sort of back fired when the sign was held up.

They should have mentioned it properly for sure.

he actually cleared the gravel trap that was by turn 1 ....skipped over that and still carrying a lot of speed.....over the tarsealed area run off and unfortuantely he and the bike launched onto the track after hitting the culvert on the grass......wasnt the greatest of things to see.....my wishes go out to his family....
