R.I.P. Marco "Super Sic" Simoncelli

I don't know why. I never met the guy, but I have been really depressed this week since the passing of Simoncelli. I watched him since he was in 250's. Maybe it was his great personality and very aggressive riding style. He had the talent and potential to be a future champ. And all of us MotoGP fans will never forget him.
