This is dumb, SIC is going to be grilled for it. Even in football, when a player suffers a head injury, or is concussed, he is not moved, and a paramedic is rushed to look at him on the field before anything else. From the video it sure looks like they just rushed him onto the stretcher, and even then managed to drop him!?! This is really going to tarnish the image of M'sia as a motor sport destination. Don't be surprised if the motogp and F1 pull out next season if the paramedics were partially responsible.

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.

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.

A knock to the head will leave you concussed. very good example is what happened to Drogba earlier this year.



Even in that situation, he was not moved. They treated him on the field, and only moved him several minutes later. Moving him without securing his neck, and dropping him after such a severe accident is just plain unacceptable. The one known fact is that he was not dead on the track. He was alive when the paramedics/stewards got to him, and was alive when they got him into the ambulance.
