- Mick Doohan experienced MotoGP racing in the last era before the internet and explains how the world wide web has changed the sport forever...
Mighty Mick is anything but retired at this point but and is one of the busiest people that I know. Regardless we were still able to snag an hour and a half of epic chat with one of the greatest to ever ride on two wheels! Mick is someone I have looked up to my whole life and I am lucky enough these days to call him a mate. We have never really gone deep on anything to do with racing though, and this podcast was a real treat to be given the freedom to ask Mick all the questions I wanted about one of the most amazing careers in motorsports.

I admired Doohan as a teenager in the 90's and still do today, Bloody Champion!!!
I did too and I think the reason is that for me he represents the epitome of what an Australian champion should be. Fiercely competitive and dominant and also humble and self depreciating. Whenever Mick won he would always use the term "we" at press conferences when referring to his efforts. When he lost he would accept the responsibility personally.
Named my first son after him. Love the man
Legend!!💯love the Chats!!
You have an awesome podcast bro. You’re a very intelligent interviewer! I’m gonna subscribe despite hearing that nauseating “Gypsy GANG” at the end
The guys a master at his craft when bikes were insane,not they they ain't now,but a different thing back then
I rate this man up there with Senna....the machines they tamed or learned too live with were monsters....MONSTERS....sorry but i don't believe for a moment that the racers/drivers of today would of being willing too take the risk that was all too real.....different breed of rider/driver...End Of.
First Grandprix I race marshalled was in 1989. After practice we would walk the tyre blacklines which where up to 400m long. They where horrible sqiggly things where you could see the rider had serious problems controlling grip with the 500s. You would wonder how they kept it upright. Now motogp bikes generally create smooth black arcs from 4 stroke torque and electronics. More like flat track. Top racers in the 90s could destroy a new set of tyres in less than 12 laps if they wanted to. ..
Have heard old stories about Mick's golf cart precision driving on the pontoons at Hamo. Wasn't there so can't confirm or deny. Suffice to say the phone cam era would have made it less fun.
I wanted to do what Doohan did. Just coin that held me back.
Not cheap road racing.
Me too! No coin. Oh, and I was slow too...
Gardiner and Doohan certainly had no money. They had talent, determination and scar tissue.
👍
America media blows #ss. They only cover football, basketball etc. Take a fan of that and let them watch these guys race close up they will be hooked because its the speed, the guts to do it, the sound, and the smell of the fuel. NOTHING like Motorcycle racing.
We need to start getting the various reaction channels on UA-cam to watch supercross, some of these channels have seen supercross crashes, but never actual races or battles between riders
