Sad to hear that Ollie passed away following a big crash on Saturday at Mallory Park.

RIP Matey, and my thoughts go out to all the rest in his team (his team mate was his brother).

He was only 21, and his 18 yr old team mate/brother must be devastated. I was stood right in front of him when he was signing autographs up at Oulton Park in May. Such a contrast that motorsport can bring some high highs but really low lows.

I think we can use this as a stark reminder of what these guys do week in week out all over the world, and out of all the motorsports I completely and utterly respect all of the bike racers out there who risk life and limb to bring us some exhilarating and breathtaking racing.
