race was red flagged by the officials for that reason, so that they don't need to rush and he can get immediate medical attention. I don't see a paramedic or a doctor anywhere in the footage. It looks like they sent a bunch of part time race stewards to put him on a stretcher and carry him to the ambulance. Not making a blunt accusation, but that looks like the case from the video.
Considering the serious nature of the accident, moving him without securing him or assessing his condition was a big mistake. Dropping him is unbelievable.
he's already dead from the impact. some rumours say he might went blank on the bike and fell off, thats why u cant see him struggling to release his body from the bike coz usually pro rider did that when they involve in accident.
I stumbled across this thread after seven posted in twitter. Anyhow , its embarrassing for our nation. Like I said I wouldn't be surprised at all if MotoGP and F1 decides to pull Malaysia .

True. I don't think there was a doctor at the scene to inspect the severity of his injuries before they put him onto the stretcher. It looks as if they rushed. Bad decision made by the stewards.

According to my foreign friends who attended the GP,your assessment is correct.
They rushed to drag the body onto the stretcher and when they lifted him it wasn't synchronized so he fell headfirst on the ground.
Some of the people who attended are hardcore GP fans who travel simply to attend and they witnessed everything as it wasn't far from the main grandstand using binoculars.
Really not professional as a medic, they are there to save people not to make the condition more worst. Maybe without proper preparation and lack of training. Shameful

totally unprofessional, see like overseas whenever they have this kinda of events, usually they would have a standby helicopter just for accidents like this.

An autopsy will reveal the exact cause of death, but whatever it is, moving him without securing him, and not assessing his condition before moving him is quite simply dumb as hell. I'm not a doctor, but i think i've seen enough sporting injuries where paramedics actually do the right thing, and this by any means was nowhere near what should have been done considering the nature and severity of the accident.

Malaysia in the eyes of the world
Judging from their actions, I believe they weren't medics. I assume they were race stewards that lacked the knowledge to deal with the situation.
