Description

Round 10 of the World Bike GP Championship proved to be a Gallic scorcher! The world's best again dominated the 500 event in magnificent style. We refer of course to Wayne Gardner (Honda), Wayne Rainey (Yamaha), Eddie Lawson (Yamaha), Randy Mamola (Cagiva) and Texan Hotshot Kevin Schwantz (Suzuki) who was awesome to behold exiting the Dunlop Bridge chicane. Another sizzling performance from the knights of the quarter-litre brigade added further lustre to a memorable event. The battle for supremacy between John Kocinski and Carlos Cardus has to be seen to be believed giving the French fans tremendous pleasure. Another great round in a great series, to add to your collection.
