The inquest opening hearing for a 23-year-old man who died after a motocross crash at Flackwell Heath has been postponed to November 9.

Richie Junior Anderson, 23, died on September 21, two days after a crash during an open session at Moto Park motocross track in Flackwell Heath on September 19. He was taken to John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for treatment following the incident.

The opening hearing of his inquest, originally scheduled for November 2 at Beaconsfield Coroner's Court, has been postponed and will now take place on November 9, with senior coroner Crispin Butler presiding. The official cause of death has not yet been revealed.

Moto Park has remained closed since the incident, though the business told the BBC it plans to reopen soon. Anderson, known as RJ, was a former youth player for Margate FC, which described him as a kind and hardworking person. A GoFundMe fundraiser set up for his family had raised £8,625 towards a £9,000 target.
