Tragedy Strikes Over Seas

Pascal Grosjean who was only 39 years old when he was killed in what should have been one of the happiest moments of his life.  He had just crossed the finish line at the Dubai Autodrome in the Sportsbike Championship race.  As he was slowing down after the race, it happened.  Just like that, at the blink of an eye he was hit.  Coming from behind, Tony Jordan crossed the finish line in third place and collided with Grosjean at 124 mph.  Both the riders were thrown from their bikes before they hit the track again.  Grosjean was flown by helicopter to the local hospital where he was pronounced dead.  Jordan is still alive, but listed in serious condition.  Grosjean's team reasoned that this was the peak of his career.  He just started having the success that he was looking for and had his aspirations set high.  He had also, just recently won the title of UAE Sportbike 600cc Champion as well.  Unfortunately, he will no longer be seen in the upcoming sportbike races.
