That was an incredibly freaky accident and just goes to show you never really know. It looks like Massa is doing well all things concidered. I wish him nothing but the best and a full recovery. _________________ 1997 K1100LT

We neurosurgeons have a dictation:
"Automatic watches, convertibles tops and brain, it's better don't mess with."
And just for remember, Henry Surtees, son of the great champion John Surtees (the only man to be World Champion on both two wheels and four wheels), was hit on the head by a wheel from the car of Jack Clarke after Clarke spun into the wall exiting Westfield Bend. The wheel broke its tether and bounced back across the track into the following group of cars and collided with Surtees' helmet.The car continued straight ahead into the barrier on the approach to Sheene Curve, also losing a wheel, and came to rest at the end of the curve with its remaining rear wheel still spinning. This indicated that Surtees had lost consciousness, with his foot still pressing the accelerator.
RIP.
