Oh that's dreadful. One of the very best riders, too.. Sometimes, it's only when they crash that you get a real sense of just his fast they are going. How sad.

Engine failure at KM297 for Si Hewitt too unfortunately today.
Buggery bollocks.

Very sad news.
I was catching up on the week's highlight recording yesterday morning and there was footage of him changing an engine on the trail!
I don't think we really appreciate just how fast they ride and the risks they take.
RIP Paulo.

And it also looks like this stage is the end for Mick Extance’s Dakar.
Bad day for sure. Goncalves was only still riding to get the team more experience after his earlier stage engine failure. Dakar Legend!

I get most of my news from the BBC web app.
The news of Paolo was visible yesterday at the very bottom of the sport page, but has now disappeared completely.
Sad to see how unimportant the beeb considers this news story.

Putting to one side the politics of holding it in Saudi I thought the topography for the first half was stunning! Had no idea parts of Saudi were so beautiful.
I totally agree with that. Best scenery and filming ever for the "Dakar" event
Agreed, it is absolutely beautiful. I am embarrassed at how little I knew about the place.
So Honda have just eneded the 18 year KTM winning streak .....
