Flaming Crash on Warmup Lap

[BigAlRoks]

Thats about all the info I got, apart from the vision on the news this morning. Apparently one rider hit another on the warmup lap, and his bike just combusted big time!! slid all the way down the track, past all the other riders.

Does anyone know any other details?

What were they warming up for?

I didn't catch any other details, just saw the bike on fire.

However not all riders were able to bring their bikes home, this was
one
race of many spectacular accidents. On the warm up lap, Superbike Cup
contender Warren Scott lost control of his Kawasaki breaking into lodge
and collected Vince Whittle's Ducati.

As the bikes fell the fuel tank of the Ducati split open, spreading its
fuel all over the track. This then combusted and the flames caught the
fuel tank of the Kawasaki which also combusted. The flaming Ducati slid
up
the road nearly collecting WSBK Noriyuki Haga. Haga later retired from
the
restarted race due to a broken gear lever

Those damn Kawasakis keep crashing and burning and getting last in races. Hopefully not all of them end up like that. :shock:
