If im not mistaken, is that Colin there on the left side as a pall bearer?

I thought it was quite interesting that everybody was pretty dressed down for a funeral, even rossi and the family. Yet Lorenzo looks like he is in a suit and tie. Big props to him. I hope there were more riders there than that. You would have figured the cameras would have caught them...

It was Edwards. Someone posted in that thread that him and Rossi were pall bearers and then Rossi pushed Sic's rc out to the steps next to the casket for the crowd to see.

Colin wasn't there....

“Firstly, I want to thank everybody for all their messages of support since Sunday. The support and love has been overwhelming and it has been a great comfort to me at this difficult time. My heart goes out to the family and friends of Marco and I will miss him a lot, as will the entire MotoGP family. I watched Marco's funeral yesterday and I really wish I could have been there. I wanted to go but unfortunately my injuries meant I was unable to travel. I know Valentino spoke to Marco's family on my behalf and I thank him for that. It was a great service and a fitting celebration of his life. I also wanted to be in Valencia next week to give my support to MotoGP, but it is not going to be possible because of the surgery I need on my left arm. The top of my left humerus bone has got multiple small fractures but the cartilage that is around the top of the bone has been pulled off. The surgery will anchor the cartilage back to the bone but there is no nerve damage, so I should be 100 per cent in about four weeks."

Guess not, my bad. The one guy looks similar so once I saw the post from the guy on the ape forum I figured it was.

Marco's father has requested a "minute of chaos" to honor his son. I dig it, and hope they follow-thru: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/95826
