"Next Sunday during the Valencia GP, instead of there being a minute's silence to honour Marco, I would prefer that there was a minute of total chaos with all the engines of the bikes of MotoGP, Moto2 and 125 all on and roaring together," Gazzetto dello Sport quotes Paolo Simoncelli as saying during an interview on television programme Domenica Cinque.

That's very cool.  I can't imagine what he is feeling, I would be despondent.  It's at least good that so many people are reaching out to his parents.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

rumor is misano is going to be renamed in simoncelli's honor and his competition number is going to be retired.

Quote from: ducatiz on October 28, 2011, 06:55:17 PM
If they wouldn't name it for Pasolini, there is no reason to rename it for Marco.  Both of them were regional heroes and both well loved.  Paso was much further in his career too.

Within their formal legal request for the name association, the Council of Santamonica Spa stressed that Simoncelli’s name will not be used for marketing or brand related commercial activities related to the Misano circuit.

"associated" = 'honorary'.  will probably be referred to in general but not in promotions, race weekend items, etc.  may just mean his name becomes part of the entrance to the facility or something similar.

That's what motogp.com said - by association only.  No marketing, etc.

its official, they changed the misano circuit to be the named after simo

Misano was the Italian racer’s home venue, and hence forth it will be renamed from the Misano World Circuit to the Marco Simoncelli World Circuit in honor of the fallen rider.

basically the same comment of the MotoGP site, except it's not clear they are renaming it, I think the asphalt and rubber may have it wrong.
