MotoGP2 Race fatal accident

[Rick Bay (BRA)]

Shoya Tomizawa passes away

The Japanese rider tragically passed away today, Sunday 5th September, after being injured in a crash during the Moto2 race at Misano.

On Sunday 5th September during the Moto2 race at the Misano World Circuit, rider Shoya Tomizawa aged 19 suffered a serious crash and subsequent cranial, thoracic and abdominal trauma.

Given the seriousness of his condition - especially for the thoracic and abdominal trauma - Tomizawa was immediately treated at the Misano World Circuit medical centre and put under artificial respiration.

The rider was taken by ambulance to the Riccione hospital accompanied by two doctors - helicopter was not used in order to allow for the proper respiratory support to be administered. Despite various attempts to resuscitate him Shoya sadly succumbed to his injuries at 14.20.

Everybody involved in MotoGP extends its deepest condolences to Shoya's family and friends at this tragic loss.

I'm in shock!!!

Shoya is the one who fell first and stayed on the track. Wait to the end of the video to see him.

He was a great racer and sure to be a force in MotoGP in the near future. That corner at San Marino (this year ran backward) is taken at around 150mph, no way for De Angelis and the other ride to avoid him. Very sad.

Ohhh man, I hate to hear things like this!  My thoughts are with his family.

they guy had major trauma to his mid section from what you can see in the last angle of the crash video. He was hit not once, but twice. He was dead before he stopped spinning.

Yo Diggity.  That is so tragic.  Wow you can tell he's dead.  He's so limp just sliding down the tarmac.  Oh man how sad.
