MOTOGP riders will gather at Malaysia's Sepang circuit this week for the installation of a plaque in memory of Italian rider Marco Simoncelli, who died in a crash last October.
Razlan Razali, Sepang International Circuit (SIC) CEO, said that riders and team officials would gather at turn 11 tomorrow where the young racer lost control of his bike. "A bronze plaque will be installed at turn 11 in remembrance of Simoncelli," he said. The tragic incident occurred soon after the race began when the 24-year-old Honda rider's bike veered across the track and into the path of riders Colin Edwards and Valentino Rossi, who appeared to have hit him.
