Remember when Loris Capirossi won the MotoGP World Championship
back in 2006? Nope, me either. Probably because he lost valuable
points in the championship after being taken out in the Catalunya GP by
his team-mate Sete Gibernau due to a lack of lever guards!
Lever guards became mandatory for the 2012 MotoGP season, as well as
various other championships such as World Superbike, MotoAmerica, etc.,
and can most likely be traced back to this incident. Hauling down the
straight at triple digit speeds, Sete Gibernau made contact with Loris
Capirossi, squeezing his brake lever to the point of lockup, which sent
Sete over the bars and in the hospital.
