#it is to this day the only motoracing thing i happened to drop in one

[andromedasummer]

i dont follow motorcycle racing or moto3 but i have mutuals and followers who do and whose posting has let me know about the accident that just happened. so i just want to say remember to walk away from the tv for a bit and drink some cold water and maybe walk around your house to burn some energy or make some tea or coffee or food so your brain can focus on a familiar task.

watching these things live is never easy, especially within the first hour when information is so blurry and you want to know of the drivers involved are okay. its completely human to react with shock/distress/anger/numbness/whatever to witnessing these more serious incidents live. focus on whats going to help, not whats gonna make you feel worse.

#i was unfortunate enough to witness the crash at mugello last year that took jasons life #it is to this day the only motoracing thing i happened to drop in one #because i was waiting for another motorsports practise session to start #i have friends whove watched similar incidents like with formula racing in 2014 and 2019 #and it can be incredibly distressing to see these incidents #even nonfatal ones like this one (hopefully) will be. grosjeans crash or when ott when into the lake in 2015 #its not something anyone should have to see and is an unfortunate side effect of these forms of sports #and youve every reason to hate it like i do. it certainly doesnt make you any less of a motorsport fan like weird twitter guys #obsessed with crashes like to claim
