I remember when my dad told me there was an insane rider in MotoGP, who have a long legs and he is as fast as Rossi in 250cc race. For the first time i saw him, i think he is really fast and incredibly brave and insane. Then after that ive become one of his fans, but for that time im not his huge fans.
I always watch 250cc Race and saw him, winning a great world championship later in 2009 in Sepang Circuit, Malaysia. It was so pathethic, that 2 years later he death in the same circuit he won later in 2009, Sepang Circuit. Win and then 2 years later dead. It was such a loss things in 2011s MotoGPs era. Until i post this now, theres no public statement came out from Edward, who have the same accident with Marco. Rossi, who have the same accident with the two, said a statement of Marco Simoncelli,"The MotoGP will never be the same without Marco Simoncelli".
Later in 2010, Simoncelli quickly confirmed his reputation as a genuine superstar by joining the San Carlo Honda Team. He brought with him a reputation as a hard rider but was widely recognised as a man with enough personality and talent to carry on when Rossi left off.
As one of his fans, i will always remember Marco as the long legs biker who have curly mop hair and insane driving style, who never stop to catch his dream to become a world champion, who have a really bright "Cheezy" smile, who always won first pole position on some MotoGP qualification race in 2010-2011, and the last, who is a close friend and as the youngest brother for Valentino Rossi.

Everything happened so fast. Im lost for words. I know our job is dangerous, that risk is part of the game, but you always hope nothing happens.
When it does happen and you find yourself in the middle of it, everything changes, its difficult to accept it.
The crash was caused by a sequence of incredibly negative circumstances, the bike that moved towards the inside of the turn instead of the outside, being run over on the widest track of the season.
Rossi said: Marco was a star and Ill never forget him. There are a lot of memories that Ill hold onto. We were together everyday, we trained together and racing was our passion. We already knew that this was something that can happen.
Rossi, who is struggling with Ducati this season, dismissed speculation that he might retire in the aftermath of the crash.
I never said that. It was probably made up just to sell newspapers, Rossi said.
