"Tragically he suffered serious injuries and despite immediate medical assistance trackside, he succumbed to his injuries shortly after."

Mark Neate, the owner of No Limits Trackdays paid tribute to Godfrey, saying: "I am so desperately sad that Ben died from the injuries he sustained.

"Ben really was a fantastic young man and friends with so many people in the paddock, he was always smiling and had time for everyone.

"He was very excited for the start of the season and had taken part in many trackdays in the last month.

"Our thoughts are with his family, his partner Jordan and his team-mates and friends."

Fellow British Superbike rider Glenn Irwin also paid tribute to Godfrey, writing on Twitter: 'Rest in peace Ben Godfrey. King of the Dutch Superbike race at Assen.'

Super bikes are prone to life threatening accidents.

People hardly survive it.

Wonder why they like that sport.

Such a young life cut short
So sad.

My dear, even those "living safe" die too. Each day comes with an uncertainty about what's coming next. That's why we should be grateful for every breath we take. Main thing is live your life for what you're passionate about. Something must kill a man(once his time has come) Life is so freaking transient and trivial...
