MotoGP Sepang race cancelled after Marco Simoncelli's horrific accident

Today’s MotoGP race at Sepang has been cancelled following Marco Simoncelli’s horrific accident during the second lap of the race at turn 11.
The Gresini rider crashed out and his leg was caught under his Honda as he slid across the track to be hit by both oncoming Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi, who couldn’t avoid him and hit him in the back and neck.

The impact was so great that Simoncelli lost his helmet and was left unconcious.
Simoncelli arrived at the medical center in cardiac and respiratory arrest according to the latest reports and is in critical condition.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to SuperSic in this moment.
