King Of The Roads - Imatranajo, Itv4 21:00 Tonight (25/07)

Looking forward to this ,last year Peter Hickman was racing there

 

I was at the Imatra GP in 1973, when Agostini and Phil Read were competing with their 3-cyl Augustas...I'll never forget the magnificent roar from the Augustas...
There was no pit lane, paddock or anything, MV Augusta hade simply rented a Shell petrol station where they kept their bikes. Anybody could just walk in, very few knew about it so there was no crowd, and suddenly I found myself close to Agostini.
Times were different then...

 

It's "Agusta"

 

I watched the coverage on itv4, a good watch, two episodes.

As road racing goes, it's quite open with good run off and limited road furniture.

Southern 100 on itv4 next week.

 

Thanks for the heads-up. Just had a look and it's 8-9pm on Tues 30th July.
