THIS VIDEO is of Taro Sekiguchi's horrific crash in the warm-up session of the Czech MotoGP. The crash left the Japanese rider with a broken pelvis and two broken ribs.

The accident happened after Marco Simoncelli low-sided his Gilera with only a couple of minutes of the session remaining. The Gliera slid along the track where it came to rest, but it was partially hidden by a cloud of dust on the track and despite braking hard, Sekiguchi had nowhere to go.
