Quote "Martin was competing in the TT for the first time since 1996 and also had experience of competing on the Isle of Man Sourthern 100 TT last year. He was a professor of mechanical engineering at the Institute of Technology, Vienna."

Sorry guys, this was an educated person doing something he wanted to do. There are lots of dangerous sports worldwide, when you decide to take part you accept the risks. I have deepest sympathy for his family and friends but it was his choice and his family would have known that when he went.

Any one of us could race on sunday and get injured or worse, the risk might be small but Sh*t sometimes happen. Thats why everyone who takes part in motorsport of any kind accepts that it is dangerous.

I am sure that this gentleman fully understood the risk he was taking and he still took it, no one put a gun to his head and made him. He did not just get up and decide to go on a whim. He choose to do so.

Death is a fact of life, accept it, your going to die sometime. When you come to terms with that, decide on how you want to live your life and go and do it, but dont try and impose your way of life on everyone else just because you disagree with what they want to do.

Once again, deepest sympathy to his family and friends
