500cc 1991 Assen Final Lap

[@toucheturtle3840]

What Kevin could do with the Suzuki is astonishing…My all time favourite.

[@olivertoeknuckle4664]

Greatest era of MotoGP. May the Schwantz be with you.

[@uweclaunitzer7170]

The two of them really provided us with such awesome moments during that year.We had Assen, Donington and Hockenheim, all of which were nail-biting finishes. Tremendous!!!

[@pabloperez4063]

Le Mans too

[@TenGreenRangers]

There is no boxing match worth watching without 2 great competitors. Rainey and Schwantz brought it.. and we all benefitted.

[@alexman8800]

Suzuka

[@caspardejonge5902]

Rare and not needed mistake by Rainey. Two greats of the sport

[@ドライバートラック-n6w]

この頃のGPが、一番楽しいです

[@neochase1]

god i miss this version of assen! what an amazing track!

[@pabloperez4063]

The BEST ever

[@mjrydsfast]

Yes. Removing the North Loop ruined it.

[@clarknawrocki3851]

2 strokes are the way to go

[@Slickhubert]

They produce luxury noise

[@BringBack500s]

Massive Revvin Kevin fan here but, that was troll level > 9000 from the #34 lol Rainey had just pinned what was perhaps the perfect lap, maybe the best lap ever ridden on a 500 on the real Assen, and just one tenth of a second late on the anchors. Just shows how pinned #34 was tho, aced the brakes, avoided a collision when Rainey got back onto the track after mowing the grass on the exit, and snatched it away. So, bring back 500s!

[@colinpuffett4834]

I love the camera angles that show the terrain better than modern days, all helicopters and towers which make it all look flat - this gives a sense of the geography

[@gixxerthouk4]

that goes to show in racing NEVER GIVE UP amazing racing

[@jefferyobryan6351]

I remember Rainey's quote after this race like it was yesterday, he said "you can't give em away any better than that"😢😢😢

[@EmperorNerox]

He got owned if Kevin wasn't on his ass he wouldn't have fkd up like that.

[@alexman8800]

@@EmperorNerox Kevin was no way near in attacking zone, I would call that on his ass.

[@hAnD90]

If you time it from 3 corners to the finish of the penultimate lap to the same place in the last lap Wayne's lap would have been a 2:01,9 - half a second faster than Schwantz's lap record that wasn't beaten until the circuit was modified. Just to get an idea of how hard they were riding that final lap! But, of course, first you have to finish such a lap to get the record. God, how I miss those times and the Schwantz-Rainey battles!

[@pabloperez4063]

you are quite right....a pity Wayne had this mistake....it would have been SUCH an amazing record...

[@camronbay1]

Man Schwantz was unreal.

[@franciscooton1155]

The very best years of our lives

[@dixieleeful]

I watched those 2 race at Road Atlanta in 87.They raced each other for a lot of years.Great racers!

[@BTP62]

Enjoyed the way they competed against each other superbikes and gp. It sometime looked as if they didn't like each other.

[@waynegacyii9010]

Remember the Fabulous Thunderbirds playing in infield?

[@pabloperez4063]

​@@waynegacyii9010J.Vaughan,s band?

[@tonyfearn2452]

absolutely real racing from real men riding real bikes !! awesome and happy days when watching the 500cc grand prix on TV was compulsive viewing !!

[@ManuelOrtegaLANAVECELTA]

Lucha antológica entre dos grandes en la historia del motociclismo. También añoro el circuito de Assen con sus casi siete kilómetros de puro espectáculo.

[@Merfy55]

I had a pulse, went to tears and a smile like a child. it's great! and this is a wonderful Gixer!

[@geoffreycasey875]

It's not a gsxr

[@peterherrington3300]

Gsxr's are across the frame 4 strokes . These are 4 square 2 strokes . "suzuki" written on them is about the only thing they've got in common.

[@hhoward14]

An age old racing saying: "they count the winners at the end"....

[@Jacky-san]

vraiment pas de change pour W. Rainey ! victoire méritée pour K. Schwanzt. 2 grands pilotes !

[@paulscrapman]

Assen never disappoints.

[@pabloperez4063]

Never

[@lriper4702]

This is the original Grand Prix sound!

[@super_spacko6608]

tinnitus in the left ear too?

[@bohica4893]

I find these old motogp racing fascinating than the current crop of motogp. I guess I'm curious how in the world they rode those beasts with no rider's aid.

[@sumitdaniel6630]

Bohica Pure guts 'n skill....not to take anything away from today's guys...

[@pabloperez4063]

I sometimes think ABOUT it. .and I am sure the top 5 of todays would be ABLE TO manage the 500 poroficiently...but It mere especulation

[@adwaving]

流石、シュワンツ最終コーナーで逆転勝利!　魅せますねぇ。。。

[@mightress]

I really mis them screaming two strokes

[@steve5825]

Im sure it’s not just nostalgia - the racing WAS better back then. These beast bikes looked so lairy to ride and while today’s riders are no doubt just as skilful there isn’t the same feeling that they are riding at the absolute limit of control and it could all go tits up at any moment. Two strokes were awesome.

[@klesarhr-bz5of]

kevin forced him to push it over the limit...amazing race

[@dannyhughes8187]

klesar.hr thats racing at that level. Damn that is part of what makes it is what it is. This one is used for education worldwide. Amazing bit of racing from two greats.

[@EJ25RUN]

What a day that was. 34!

[@mikegass2272]

They raced like their lives depended on it. Real racing,

[@pabloperez4063]

Also today, in the 3 classes, all of them are lunátic

[@peterflynn9123]

Beautiful riding at a beautiful circuit - magnificant

[@harummf]

EPIC BATTLE IN THE FINAL CORNER ASSEN Ukawa Vs Checa - Assen 2002 Edwards Vs Hayden - Assen 2006 Rossi Vs Marquez - Assen 2015 Anyting else?

[@pabloperez4063]

Sito Pons vs Sarron 250 CC 1988

[@pabloperez4063]

And even though there was no Battle un ThE chicsne, WE must aLWAYS have un mind ThE amazing MOTO GP 2018 race....My God!

[@angiolettocassetti2443]

Semplicemente fantastico !!!

[@mauricerose3082]

...I remember watching this race live...the phrase 'anything can happen' was coined on that day...

[@FTMJarra]

@EJ25RUN exactly....they killed it.!! RIP old Assen.!!

[@PjotrStroganov]

Assen still rules

[@henrymisisca2065]

THE BEST MACHINE

[@stefanos2692]

What amazing colours and sponsor ... both bikes!!

[@otaviofrn_adv]

[@rafazx6r]

si estos pilotazos cojen las motogp actuales dejarian unos records eternos

[@pabloperez4063]

Es especular.... igual si, igual no

[@FCT8306onTwoWheels]

2:52 ooh those jackets. What a lap that was

[@gilbyadams7360]

Schwantz was legend

[@rockers2rockers616]

Those bikes were brutal machines. I still ride my RG500

[@billmago7991]

Love the strokers

[@JH-rr4bc]

Best driver ever

[@brianjones6465]

Are these 2 cycle engines?

[@adrianpastor7944]

Cuando las motos eran motos sin ningún tipo de electrónica hay se veia estos pilotos inolvidables fenómenos

[@hirtac6819]

あのバトルでのガッツポーズゴールは最高♪

[@stevebigansky9372]

Nobody better yhan Kevin at applying the pressure to force someone into a mistake - And ESPECIALLY Rainey - uncharacteristic for someone with so much experience- that one probably stung for a while

[@stevel6939]

Pure balls riding then. No fly by wire like today.

[@motero2665]

DOS MUY BUENOS PILOTOS , GRANDES

[@javiervazquez-vm4ug]

Que bonito era assen. Público a tope. Y que careto, tenía rayne en el podium. dos genios

[@galihgore4938]

ks34 avoid the touch but still open the gass ,, epic !

[@WingCheungChow]

It is really a lucky strike at all , however he plays his very best till last corner so he deserves to win the game . 👍👍👍👏👏👏💪💪💪

[@vigneshwaran7437]

Looks lot of fun

[@igorbrezovic]

Can't get enough og that... Still

[@StewartGartland]

When you've just remembered you made a million dollar bet that you would come second!

[@jefferson8653]

A esperança é a última que morre

[@EmperorNerox]

Schwantz 34 the legend puts his hand up before he crosses the finish line., Humiliating Rainey ahahaha

[@Altroman1]

Amazing pilots......

[@pabloperez4063]

Indeed

[@travisguide4516]

probably had scwantz in the back of his mind at the end to thinking about how he might be right behind him doing something desperate to win and lost focus or something he did that corner in the other laps

[@refalf1774]

Amazing. Suzuki kevin schwants vs Yamaha wayne rainey 👍 The winer is Suzuki 👍👍

[@muhammadfairus9691]

Kevin Scwhantz 😎👍

[@alexandergoodman8184]

GODS ❤❤❤ what a battle ❤❤❤

[@andrewperry605]

Damn. i forgot that one. Kevin put a bit of pressure back on mr Cool

[@alejandroleonelli8264]

Schwantz es el más grande de todos los tiempos por lo que hizo con la RGV frente a Honda y Yamaha. En lo derecho parecia una 250 frente a las otras 2 Japo

[@jimv3352]

Wow!

[@philipbennett1367]

Ah the good old days.😁

[@jimcarrey14]

[@pabloperez4063]

Ganaría . Su talento es inmenso. Piensa que Rossi fue campeón en 500, y Marc es mucho más rápido que el.
