Default RIP Craig Jones

Craig was racing World Supersport at Brands Hatch and was killed due to head injuries suffered in a nasty wreck. I believe it was Andrew Pitts front tire that clipped his head.

God damnit. That's brutal. For all the protective gear and the nasty looking crashes that people just jump up and walk away from, this really brings about a sense of reality to the sport.

God's peace on him and his family. Deserving a warrior's seat in Vallhalla but it won't be a consolation to his family...

My buddy was at that race and saw the wreck. He said it looked 10 times worse in person.

RIP...
