Parkalgar Honda rider Jones suffered head injuries Sunday at the Kent circuit when, chasing leader Jonathan Rea on lap seven of a restarted race, he slid out at Clark Curve and was left exposed on the track. Rea's Ten Cate Honda team-mate Andrew Pitt, following closely behind, made slight contact with him as he passed.
The race was stopped as Jones, 23, was attended to on the track. He was resuscitated four times before being flown by Air Ambulance to Royal London hospital, where he was placed in a pharmacological coma by doctors.
Their attempts to stabilise his condition were in vain and he died in the early hours of Monday morning.
