Severe head and chest trauma. Honda WSBK team saying "the medical teams are working hard". Sounds like he wasn't wearing a helmet or that car was going at some significant speed. There's a picture of the car with the windshield just completely smashed to poo poo along with the roof of the car bent.

DirtRoadJunglist posted:It's bad, but not necessarily Schumacher bad. Unfortunately, it sounds really bad like maybe even worse than Schumacher bad. The hospital released a statement this morning saying he's suffered severe brain damage and he's still in the ICU with an unknown prognosis. He has a cerebral edema which they can't even operate on because his vitals are so unstable/lovely that a surgery might just end up killing him outright. Severe fracture throughout his body and they're referring to it as a polytrauma case. It's really, really bad and really, really lovely. I never watched him race in WSBK but in MotoGP you could just tell how nice of a guy he was and everyone seemed to like him (unless your name was Pedrosa).

Angryboot posted:Earl Hayden clarifying a few things with RRW: Huh, I haven't even seen the other stuff about Nicky. I've just been going off the actual hospital statements. I'm surprised at hte last one though that he's not in an induced coma. Which is somehow even more worrying.

Apparently there's CCTV footage of the crash and Nicky apparently just pulled out of a junction right into the path of the car. Dang. RIP Nicky

Not sure if you guys saw but Vale in hospital with mild trauma to his chest and abdominal area from a motocross crash while training. Mugello in question now.

In stuff that doesn't really matter given actual things that do it would appear that the 2017 Qatar Grand Prix will have been the last given everything that's happened and is going to happen to Qatar in the short term. I actually liked the Losail track.

The entire Arab world (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Egypt, Libya etc. etc.) have completely cut off Qatar, isolated it, banned Qatar Airways and such from flying over their airspace and Saudi and UAE have even made it illegal up to 15 years in prison to even say anything supportive of Qatar. That's kind of just scratching the surface but yeah I imagine it'd be extremely difficult to host a grand prix in these circumstances.

Rev. Dr. Moses P. Lester posted:Isn't it a thing for, like, F1 drivers to have contracts with clauses about not engaging in other dangerous sports though? Depends on the teams. McLaren in particular was a pretty bit stickler especially after/when Montoya had that motorcycle accident which they just blamed it on "tennis" injury.

We'll all know by the end of first practice. If that Ducati is not hooked up for Valencia then congrats Marquez.
