Let the man rest in peace without any antagonistic sentiments.

Let's all just celebrate that we could still have a ballsy rider like Marco, who was prepared to take risks rather than some of the dour riders we have now.
You only have to look at the worldwide emotional outpouring for the guy to realise he was adored not for his achievements, but for the way he went about his business.

Could have happened to any rider, and he sure as hell didn't deserve death for making a mistake.
More could have been done.

It looks to be where he was actually hit, isn't it ? That was one of the most tragic moment I've ever experienced behind my TV :( RIP Marco !
