I wrote about the Noah Dettwiler-Jose Antonio Rueda crash in Moto3 at Sepang. About needing to bring back Moto3 warm, how racing is dangerous, doing everything we can to reduce risk. And how this generation of riders is different, and better, to previous generations.

A reminder that this is the same team (and the same circuit) where Raul Fernandez was allowed to ride after being knocked out in a preseason test in 2022. It caused him to crash again the next day when he basically forgot to brake for a corner... www.the-race.com/motogp/the-f...
'The fear is for your life' - Fernandez crash return was terrifying
After taking a big blow to the head on Saturday, Raul Fernandez rode again - and crashed again - on the final day of MotoGP testing.

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."
