    This was Kevin digging deep and not giving in to the pain and discomfort he was in. I can remember him being 6 inches sideways coming out of Coppice on every lap. Talk about determined to win🇺🇸

    Just another example of why 34 is my all-time favorite rider. Unbelievable determination and passion. He caught my eye for the first time when I watched him wallowing and wobbling out of high-speed turn 10 at Sears Point on a Yamaha FJ600 during some endurance race back in the early 80’s. It just wasn’t right, this kid was pushing the absolute limits, and it was twisting and flexing like crazy! Can’t remember how he finished, all I remember is laughing my ass off every time he came by! Of course I became his biggest fan immediately, and it was great to see him ride with that exact same determination throughout his career, and great to see him win the biggest championship in motorcycle road racing. Thanks for the entertainment!

      Great idea, but if they DID bring the 500's back, the entire grid would probably consist of less than 10 riders because everyone else would be in a hospital

    • @8ballout

      If you can’t handle the bike you shouldn’t ride in that class. I’m not saying the riders these days aren’t skilled by no means but I don’t find it too exciting watching a data technician setting up the electronics to give the bike less power in lower gears or to control wheel spin. That’s a riders job.
      And I also know, you’d love to see the 500’s back as well. 😝

    Donnington is among my favorite tracks to race in my sims (esp the national layout), but it would be one of the most terrifying IRL for me. Those Crainer Curves would scare me to death, the slightest mistake and id be going throught the grass at well over 120 mph (i forget exactly how fast, Its been a long time since I've driven Donnington in a sim)

      Yeah, It was the dawn of Doohan's complete domination of MotoGP for the next 5 seasons: The a first of string of World Championships from 1994-1998. But this doesn't take anything away from Kevin's Ride at Donington in '94: Kevin's win that day was by pure grit and dogged determination: His wrists were shot, he was riding with broken bones, against Honda NSR500s which easily had 10-20 horsepower over his RGV-500 Gamma. A Great Win. Kevin retired later that year, but his mark on MotoGP endures.

    Schwantz was a mediocre driver, although he gave a lot of show, who was only able to win a world championship the year in which Rainey was left in a wheelchair, when he had been beaten by three world championships in a row.
