Shocking footage shows an ambulance staff dropping a badly hurt Marco Simoncelli just moments after his fatal crash at the Malaysian MotoGP in Sepang.
Emergency staff are reportedly seen dropping the 24-year-old as they rushed him to an ambulance when of the men tripped over losing grip of the stretcher.
American rider Edwards also dislocated his shoulder in the mishap - while Simoncelli's fellow Italian Rossi was able to return to the pits.
Simoncelli lay motionless on the track after the impact, while the race was immediately red-flagged.
The race was cancelled amid confusion in the grandstand.
The death is the first fatality in MotoGP since Japan's Daijiro Katoh died from injuries sustained at the 2003 Japanese GP while, last year, Japan's Shoya Tomizawa died in a similar crash to Simoncelli in a Moto2 race in San Marino.
Simoncelli's death comes a week after British IndyCar driver Dan Wheldon was killed in Las Vegas following a 15-car crash.
Simoncelli will be laid to rest in his home town of Coriano on Thursday at 3pm local time.
