This is THE BEST race I ever watched... It is burnt and imprinted onto my memory, soul, consciousness and being. I vividly remember it. I was born in 1989.. and this race is 1996... So I was seven years old ?
It is of Mick Doohan, on the wild fierce majestic Honda NSR500, a 2-stroke grand prix 500cc motorcycle... these were very "mechanical",... in that there was not many if any assists AT ALL,.. and there was little to no COMPUTERS interfering with things. It is very very man and machine.
This is in Spain. Lovely hot beautiful Spain. It is just a race between Mick and his team-mate Alex.
On the last lap the crowd invades the track... and it spooks Alex a little... and Doohan just manages to dive and snake his team-mate on the last corner. Incredible moment. Alex accidently gives it a right fist-full hamfist of throttle on a weapon of a motorcycle and stacks it !!!
Skip to 46minutes and watch the last lap... Or if your truely hardcore watch it start to finish. Glory days. Bruce Springstein.
