Simoncelli tribute planned for Sunday
Riders from the MotoGP, Moto2 and 125cc classes will pay their respects to the late Marco Simoncelli by completing a parade in Valencia on Sunday, with the World Championship field all taking to the Circuit Ricardo Tormo at the same time.
1993 500cc title winner Kevin Schwantz will lead the parade on Simoncelli’s Gresini Honda bike, with the demonstration planned for 10.10am local time (GMT +1).
Italian Simoncelli succumbed to his injuries after a terrible crash on the second lap of the Malaysian Grand Prix two weeks ago, being hit when he fell off his bike at Turn 11.
