This bellend, not looking over his shoulder and going straight onto the racing line after re-joining the track.
No idea if anyone died, but it doesn't look good.

Re: Biggest **** of the year award goes to...
Found this on internet.
Mannheim (ots) - A serious accident occurred on Sunday afternoon on the race track Hockenheimring during a tourist trip.
11.15 clock a 44-year-old Honda rider had come off his motorcycle on the start / finish line to the left of the track, where he first sailed the local grass verge. Shortly before the end of the start / finish line he then drove at a moderate speed back to the race track. Here he probably underestimated the speed of the approaching from behind motorcycles. The Honda rider came first with a 31-year Kawasakifahrer from Altlußheim, which subsequently collided in turn with a 24-year-old motorcyclist from St. Leon-Rot. All three riders came to fall. By rushing motorbikes and flying debris, a 24-year-old Aprilia rider from Viernheim came also to fall. Three of the four fallen motorcyclists were seriously injured in the accident and had to be taken to surrounding hospitals. The fourth involved was only slightly injured. None of the parties involved in accidents is currently critical condition. On the motorbikes total loss arose. One of them was completely gutted. The material damage is estimated at about 50.000 euros.
The traffic accident recording service police Mannheim commenced the investigation.

Re: Biggest **** of the year award goes to...
If you look at the 2nd vid it appears the rider rejoining the track may not have seen the middle bike on track as he was unsighted by the bike on the left which appears to slow down to allow him to rejoin.
Either way common sense would tell you never to try and ride right across the straight like that.

Re: Biggest **** of the year award goes to...
idiot... wasn't like it was obvious there was a large pack coming down the track!
They are hot on exiting pit lane at Eastern Creek, it's got to the point now if you don't hug the inside line on the first corner you get black flagged and sit out that session and the next one. If you repeat offend you get a ban on track days for a period.

Re: Biggest **** of the year award goes to...
That looks terrible. Although if I came off I think the first thing I'd be doing is checking to make sure no one was behind me, especially when it ended as horrific as that
