I dont understand why race bikes dont have cut off switches connected to the rider, like jet skis etc?

One more thing to go wrong, I guess. Pretty unusual circumstances?

I guess that exact instance is rare, but bikes crashing on track is common. I cant think of a reason when (except in pit/onn grid) that a bike would need to be running without its rider!

very hard to bump start the bike if the engine is off you allways see riders running after the bike in the hope that they can jump back on and finish the race





eerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

where was that one about 3/4 years ago, first corner, and one guy went into the back of someone else, but the way he caught him, it jammed his front brake lever on and flipped him over?
think it was spain or something? that was a weird one too

The throttle should close. It looks like the throttle is stuck open as the right handlebar is the one entangled - as soon as they come apart it stops.

Do you think the other rider was a little mad that he could not get his bike

it was the catalan GP, as i recall Sete Gibernau ran into the back of Caparossi when both were on Ducatis.

Gibernau broke his collar bone, took out another three riders and marco melandri was dragged by another bike into the gravel by his neck! 2006 i think

I watch a lot of bike racing but that has got to be the funniest crash I have ever seen, thanks for that. Barry
