No! terrible, terrible news. Abe was without doubt one of the biggest talents to come out of Japan.
Im sure that Norick and Daijiro are having fun on the big track in the sky.

Was just watching "faster" the other day too, very few of the motogp guys have ever died on the track... always cancer, car accident, etc :|
Just goes to show... any one of us could end up dead by something mundane tomorrow... get out there and do stuff.
RIP
“Crashing is shit for you, shit for the bike, shit for the mechanics and shit for the set-up,” Checa told me a while back. “It’s a signal that you are heading in the wrong direction. You want to win but crashing is the opposite. It’s like being in France when you want to go to England and when you crash you go to Spain. That way you’ll never get to England!” -- Carlos ChecaComment
