    Oh my God. MotoGP Le Mans was a bit too exciting for this old man to handle.

    I need a good lie down.

    That was quite spectacular at the end there.
    Spoiler:
    I couldn't believe Rossi just collapsed like that. You don't see that often.


    And this French dude is seriously impressive. He seems like championship material.

    I caught a replay of Millers incident. What happened, stuck throttle or whiskey throttle after a moment? Looked like the bike just took off on him.

    And then there was the Moto 3 race



    Amazing there weren't any serious injuries. A few guys looked pretty sore, but I think everyone was able to start again (if they had a bike to do so). I'm guessing the Moto 3 bikes are really light, good thing, a few got hit.

    And towards the end of that gif, you can see that last light colored bike go flying right at one rider that managed the just barely duck under it. Incredible.

    When Miller crashed in practice, he'd momentarily lost the front at T2 just before the Dunlop chicane. Upon gathering it up again, the steering was turned hard to the right, and that's where it shot him.

    Motorbike physics.

    Yeah, it just looked like to me that it also accelerated hard, even wheelieing a bit right after he started to gather it back.

    For all the dangers of motorcycles he was killed on a bicycle.
    I wasnt a fan, but did appreciate that he was a nice guy in a sport that has it's fair share of idiots.

    Unfortunately there's a video that seemingly shows he burned a stop and collided with the car.
    So he was at fault.
    But, doesn't matter... poor guy.
