Description
Experience the sheer emotion and exhilaration of MotoGP in this revealing, access-all-areas look inside the sport.
Twenty-two individuals split by technique, guile, millions of euros of technical development and only slivers of a second on the racetrack. Welcome to the sensational world of MotoGP and the highly pressurised environment of personal risk at 225mph.
In Motorcycle Grand Prix, journalist Adam Wheeler takes readers inside the 75-year-old FIM world championship, with all the electric stories, sights and personalities that feature in this annual gauntlet of twenty rounds and seventeen countries across eleven months. Moving from the track and into the heat and hum of pitboxes, nervy pre-race grids and tense press conferences, it offers fans unprecedented access to MotoGPβs inner circle.
Featuring exclusive interviews with the biggest names in MotoGP, including world champions Marc Marquez and Casey Stoner, this is a thrilling account of life at the pinnacle of one of the worldβs most intense and popular motorsports.
