Motorsport remembers Nicky Hayden who dies, aged 35

Nicky Hayden sadly passed away today due to injuries suffered last week in a cycling accident. All evening, messages have been flooding in as motorsport remembers the 2006 MotoGP champion. At F1Today.net, we offer our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Nicky, keeping them in our thoughts tonight and the days to come.

Hayden will be sadly missed by the paddocks he has graced throughout an incredible career, his millions of fans around the world, and by all those closest to him. We sadly bid farewell to the “Kentucky Kid” far too soon – a true legend of the sport, and to all those who knew him. Rest In Piece, Nicky.

  • Such a terrible loss. Nicky was my motorcycling hero and I was praying desperately that we would not hear news like this. A great champion and legend!
