MotoGP's Head Medical Officer Dr. Angel Charte says the series overhauled its medical response system after Marco Simoncelli's fatal 2011 crash. Of more than 1,000 accidents a season, only 8 or 9 are truly serious, but the series now stations ICU-level care trackside for exactly those cases, aiming to "give riders a chance to survive."

I still can't shake Simoncelli's crash. Fifteen years on, Dr. Charte says only 8 or 9 of the 1,000-plus crashes a season are truly serious — but in those, how fast you can intubate decides who lives. Putting ICU-level care right at trackside — that hits different when you've seen it up close.

What does 'ICU-level trackside response' actually consist of, equipment-wise?

A show with F1-level money behind it, this should be the bare minimum honestly.

Under 1% of 1000+ crashes actually being dangerous is kind of reassuring once you see the numbers.

15 years since Simoncelli's crash... back then it really did feel unavoidable.

Picking out just those 8 or 9 truly dangerous crashes out of 1000+ a year for extra care is honestly impressive.

Impressive, sure, but taking 15 years to get here feels way too slow if you ask me.
