Whilst we're discussing the rights and wrongs of The Argus and it's dubious reporting style can we all take a moment to remember a lost sportsman. Today would have been the 25th birthday of Marco Simoncelli.

RIP Marco. Gone but not forgotten.

Moto GP rider that died after an accident in October involving Rossi. He was meant to be the next big thing after signing a works Honda deal for 2012.

Google him for loads of information.

Mate of mine is convinced his helmet only came off because of his hair. He's been riding all his life.

What do you think?

It was a nasty crash and he'll be missed inside and out of Moto GP. RIP Marco

If ya watch the video to me it looks like a bike makes contact with his head and rips the helmet off, then his also sliding along the ground at 100mph+ i dont think his hair played a part.

Was disappointed to see when he was being carried to the ambulance they dropped him

Rip Mario:down:

Real big loss to MotoGP.
He was a huge star in the making, and I think would have kept the showmanship and flair of Rossi going after Vale retired.

Lorenzo, Stoner and particularly Pedrosa are soooo dull!
