Remember two big friends went to this race in 1982 and it never stopped raining, luckily I did not go as I did not buy my first bike until the following year. KR's bike catching fire is the one thing I always remember. The days when 500cc racing was only ever shown on World of Sport, and with this race being on a Saturday I would try to fit it in with my lunch break on my first Saturday job and watch the race in the local tv shop!
Remember they had similar weather in 1985 when Christian Sarron brought Spencer down at the first corner. The race in 1983 was another memorable one for the wrong reasons when Wayne Gardner hit Uncini and took Uncini's helmet off. How Uncini survived I don't know, but he was never the same rider again and fortunately I have never seen the same thing happen again.
Jack Middleburg was a quality racer, won the Dutch in 79, I was there as well, and won the Brit GP at one point. Circuit has been chopped up now, a lot shorter.
Boa noite, hoje tenho 62 anos, aos 16 anos tive o prazer e honrra de ter misturado as tintas das nossas carenagens no circuito de Interlagos, são Paulo Brasil, com a eterna lenda do motociclismo mundial, sheene.🇧🇷🇧🇷
Nesta época podia cair um dilúvio, a corrida continuava,corri várias vezes nesta condição do tempo, e olhem que aqui no Brasil, a chuva é torrencial. Porquê que o Senna, o Barrichello, o massa, andavam barbaridade na chuva, porque desde muito jovens aprenderam a correr nesta condição de tempo.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
That is nuts i have been on a track on a race bike on slicks and i can tell you from experience water and slick DO NOT go together imagine the slipperiest ice and you have on shoes with smooth plastic souls ya like that is crazy wow
That's just how they did it. I don't know the exact reason, but it was carried over from the pre-war era. Push-starts were the norm until 1986 I believe.
This was a long time ago, when these riders were completely fearless, admirable, and still wild. Back then this was thought of as one of the safest ways to race a motorcycle
@@raceboi95I knew exactly what you're talking about because I raced a TZ750 in the AMA Formula 1 series back in '81/x82 - I didn't consider riding a 300 lb 140hp 2 stroke in the RAIN very safe at all -
@@stevebigansky9372 well no of course not, I didn’t say all riders were crazy and fearless, these guys were, the ones chasing the in anyway, if they didn’t go out and race they could lose their title or not get paid. Their mindset was to just get on with it and you gotta do what you gotta do. (Also racing in the 82 formula AMA season is EPIC)
Thanks for the memories!!!.. Good old time 500cc!!!❤️❤️❤️

Went to this and the two TT's you mention above. As a Saturday GP used to be 40 to 50 coaches from the UK going across every year.
Jack Middleburg was a quality racer, won the Dutch in 79, I was there as well, and won the Brit GP at one point. Circuit has been chopped up now, a lot shorter.
Merci pour cette vidéo ❤❤❤
They should bring back the push start!

Ohne Rennsport wäre ich tot unglücklich einfach nur geil
Da bin ich gewesen. 😊
yep ich auch 😉
Brilliant
2strokes
Push start
Proper racing

Look at the size of the line up on the grid-we might get 18 bikes in a modern MotoGP
Comme jack a à porté énormément pour Honda ✔️
Great old Assen circuit.

The father of Valentino Rossi (Graziano) raced in this race ending 13th.

why did they push the bikes on start
That's just how they did it. I don't know the exact reason, but it was carried over from the pre-war era. Push-starts were the norm until 1986 I believe.

The FIM
Kenny Roberts should never have been aloud to race in the restart in my opinion as he'd fallen off before the race had been red flagged
Wil hartog moet winnen gas erop snelheid is alles 🎉❤🎉❤ 🎉❤ b🎉❤
I like
Crazy lol
I think 1 round of the current MotoGP series should be run on these bikes.
Yeah, like riders will agree to that.
@ well, I can dream 😆
The start was an accident waiting to happen. The whole race is safety disaster
Farcical
A bit like the commentary.
Wil hartog is de beste 5oo cc .==
Not the best, but was very good.
Qui a aimé Kenny Roberts ?
Sa mère ?
Most everybody. An excellent racer.
