I'm telling you its unnatural , he's inventing new laws of physics as he goes along or its some sort of witchcraft , either way it would seem from the way the front wheel is hovering in the 3rd picture in the sequence that the way to un-crash ( its the only way I can describe it) is to give it loads more welly

I'm not decrying his undoubted talents.
But
To be fair, that tyre must be super-sticky; just look at the trail it's laying down. (1st & 2nd pics' )

Theres a video being shared by some well know superbike riders and ex riders where he actually crashes claiming its the same crash as the title is Brno test 2014 but when you look the video was uploaded over a month ago and its also on a different turn as there is green air fence in the background which isnt there in the pics, a bit of jealousy me thinks

I'd say that Simoncelli was attempting something similar on that fateful day, but just didn't quite pull it off.

Can't see it due to copyright issues apparently.
