I've just caught my cousin Denver Robb interviewed on the local news about the serious crash involving Robert Dunlop. This doesn't look good. Matty and I were only talking about Robert's chances a few hours ago. Please God he will be OK but it doesn't look good.

I can never decide; is it a terrible thing when a sportsman dies as a direct result of their sport, or is it the way they'd have wanted to go?
I'm not a massive fan of motorcycle racing, and I never have been. I'd watch it if it was on, and I've been up to the NW200 a few times, but I couldn't tell you the names of more than a couple of drivers and/or teams.
One of the drivers' names that I did know was Joey Dunlop ; I think every person in Ireland knew of him. Quiet, unassuming and massively skilled, his death in 2000 hit the country hard.

Joey was killed racing in Estonia in 2000 after that summer having a display of all his trophies at the Isle of Man TT where he had runb 26 races. Robert was the record holder at Ireland's premier meeting the North West 200 with 15. Sadly yesterday evening during a practice session his 250cc bike appeared to seize as it reached the fast Mather's Cross section and crashed at high speed. He was confirmed dead from his injuries shortly after 10pm last night.
