Det bliver bare stort

Lyder dette som den vådeste drøm? Se Freddie Spencer skyde den gamle Honda totakter af, han blev verdensmester på? Efterfulgt at Kevin Schwantz på den hurtigt roterende Pepsi Suzuki? Mens Wayne Gardner kommer susende på baghjulet på den første Big Bang Honda GP racer? Mens de alle ser Phil Read kommer skrålende på 250 totakteren indenom alle andre i sving 1?

DET ER INGEN DRØM, men bliver virklighed. Den 19.-21. juni samles alle verdensstjernerne på Jerez til et regulært totakts-mekka. Pludselig blegner alle Moto GP løbene. Det samme gør VM Superbike weekenderne. Ingen tvivl om mange danskere med GP historien på plads, nu påbegynder opsparingen. Arrangørene forventer op mod 200.000, og vi tror mindst 500-1.000 danskere vil finde frem til en sådan drøm af et arrangement.

I alt mødes 16 kørere fra hele kloden, med samlet 296 GP sejre, og 35 GP mesterskaber på samvittigheden. Men også musikken er regulær verdensklasse.
