By Ben Cope on 18/10/2011 13:14:55
Be quick, before Dorna get YouTube to remove it
This is the crash that cost Jorge Lorenzo the tip of his finger at Phillip Island last weekend. Looks like he lost the front and when it gripped, he was just a passenger on a sinking ship/Factory Yamaha YZR-M1..

Johnny Depp causes high-speed crash

Aprilia RSV4 Isle of Man crash. Whoops
