    RIP Daijiro kato

    Daijiro Kato loses his battle for life.


    The MotoGP community was today mourning the death of one of its brightest stars, as Daijiro Kato finally lost his brave battle for life in the Yokkaichi Central Hospital, Japan. Kato has been in a coma since an horrific crash two weeks ago at the Suzuka Circuit, venue of the first round of the 2003 MotoGP World Championship.

    The former 250cc World Champion suffered head, neck and chest injuries in the accident and has been fighting for his life in the intensive care unit of the hospital, where he passed away on Sunday morning at 00:42 local time. Kato, 26, leaves behind a widow and two children.

    As reported at www.motogp.com

    RIP Daijiro kato

    I've dealt with death on many different levels in my life. Maybe much more than someone my age should have. Being a parent of two beautiful children, it always tugs at my heart seeing someone leave behind a family. Wunna my few honest fears in life is NOT being around to watch my children grow and learn to enjoy life...

    My prayers are with his family....

    belated RIP

    I can't believe I didn't see this on the net...I must be blind. May he be one with God, and look down upon us and give us the strength to race another day.
