Looking at the footage I suspect he died at the track and they have spent the last half-hour to see if they could revive him.

It also fits with the race being cancelled so quickly.

RIP

RIP Marco.

The only reason a race is cancelled is either bad weather or a death on circuit. If he was alive and taken away for treatment, the race would have continued.

Shocking news and a very big wake up call for all forms of motor-sport.

I personally think this will be the end for Rossi..... Retirement is looming.
