Was still at school but remember Marco's success in the GPs that year. 2 years later when I had go my self my own bike I also bought a Lucchinelli replica NAVA helmet, which I was very proud of. Great racing on raw 2 strokes back then. Great also to see Barry Sheene riding competitively and up there in the mix too. This vid is a true hidden gem.

This era was magic, with the bikes' & tires' arrival to the stages of awesome tech development, and with a slew of legends battling it out. There wasn't a single lackluster race for about a five-year stretch.

Bonito video soy de España de Madrid y los vi correr en el Jarama que espectáculo esas bicicletas eran caballos desbocados y tenían que ser los ciclistas con el acelerador .super Finos como cortar Mantequilla. Eso no era como ahora control de tracción. Etc. Etc. Todo a ido mejorando sobretodo en seguridad. Pero me quedo con lo antiguo muchas cilindradas .y sidecar todo el día viendo carreras. Será porque tengo 59.tacos🏍️🤦👍🇪🇸

No launch control, anti wheelie or traction control. No electronic engine management system and no abs. Combined with a 500cc two stroke power band screamer and you have insanely good riders.

Parabéns para todos que gostam de coridas de moto gt.

[@gitaneVYS491R]

This is not a GP, the first GP at Donington was 1987, this was the Jody Scheckter's World Motorcycle Winter Cup. I had never heard of it before this video. Not sure if anyone has any info?

[@lfcyam]

Hi just seen this! Do you have the after race interview with barry sheene as I was in it!

[@RosarioSannino]

The total lack of security is so frightnening 😆

[@andyb.1026]

Are you frightened of your own shadow 😮

[@oz2strokeman116]

I wonder if Crosby is thinking of the time Randy visited NZ and ruined Croz's pool game by running past and knocking all the balls across the table. Which resulted in Croz chasing and catching him, then flushing his head down the toilet.

Wow

[@9398lukye]

Why do they start with the engine running? Didn't they start pushing until '87?

[@kasperkjrsgaard1447]

It wasn’t a Grand Prix race but an independent race. Britain had been using clutch starts by time then.

[@9398lukye]

​@@kasperkjrsgaard1447right😅 the Britain GP in '81 was at Silverstone

Where did they find the commentator? His intonation is, well, sinister. Sounds like those old time yank comms with their circus barker roll up! roll up! schtick. Another thing i note in all these old vids is that Surtees was never given any more than a few words here and there. His knowledge seemed to be totally wasted in favour of some motormouth mic jockey.

Phil Read is the other Commentator.

@@yds250 You dare to question me?

[@ewennicolson4342]

@@yds250 Not sure how I got them confused. Surtees had a definite Roy Jenkins thing going on.
