Motorcourse, acclaimed as the premier motorcycle yearbook, brings alive the drama and atmosphere of the 1998 World Championships. More than 250 fabulous color photographs throughout are supported by race reports, statistics, topical features on the teams, and technical developments. This high-quality yearbook makes it a valued source of reference for all motorcycle enthusiasts.
Now in its 32nd year, Motocourse continues to go from strength to strength as the fortunes of MotoGP worldwide continue to flourish. Compiled by leading motorcycle journalist Michael Scott, Motocourse is not simply a lavish document of the MotoGP and Superbike seasons, it is a highly collectable resource that has sold out for each of the past five years. It is widely recognized as the leading annual in this exciting sport. Motocourse is packed with detailed race reports, in-depth analysis, rider profiles and outstanding photography that brings to life the excitement of this massively popular sport.
Motocourse 1995-96 is the 20th Issue of the World's Leading MotoGP and Superbike Annual. 1995 was a pivotal year for motor cycle racing. While Michael Doohan sailed to his second successive victory in dominant (if erratic) style and Carl Fogarty did the same thing in the growing Superbike series, a new generation was bubbling up beneath. The 1995 season saw Kevin Schwantz quit prematurely, a legend bringing an era to a close; his replacement Daryl Beattie rise to the occasion, running Doohan close for overall honours; new machines readied for future 500 class battle, from Japan and Europe; Scott Russell switch from Superbikes to GPs, changing the relationship of the two major World Championship series and a new wave of young riders cutting their teeth.
An overview of the early stages of motorcycle racing in Europe and Great Britain and the history of the TT, from 1907 through today with top stars such as Duke, Guthrie, Dunlop and more.
