Nicky Hayden finally wins the MotoGP World Championship
|
Following in the illustrious footsteps of Americans who have dominated since the late 70's, Nicky Hayden usurps boy wonder Italian Valentino Rossi to be crowned King in 2006.
The video could have spent a few more minutes before each race instead of fervently rushing into qualifying and the race footage. However, this is a must for any American Motorcycling racing fan. The last American champion was crowned in 2000 - Kenny Robert Jr in the 500cc 2 stroke class on a Suzuki. Nicky, the Kentucky kid does it on the new engine format of 990cc 4 stroke on a Honda. Of course since 2007, the displacement has dropped to 800cc.
I followed the exploits of Kenny Roberts Sr of Modesto, Calif. on Yamaha, whose dirt tracking style experience and skill defeated the established Europeans in the late 70's. He was followed by the boy wonder Freddie Spencer from the bayou's of Louisiana. The 80's and early 90's were dominated by Americans - Eddie the king of cool Lawson, Randy the joker Mamola, Wayne the iceman Rainey, and Kevin the flamboyant Shwantz.
Formula 1 and Nascar are bigger than motorcycle racing, but even with traction control today, motorcycling is by far the most exciting form of racing to watch. Today though not a dominant force, there are a few young Americans in the mix incluing John Hopkins on Kawasaki, two time WSB champion Colin the Texas Tornado Edwards and of course the Kentucky Kid, Nicky Hayden. |
