Allan McNish: Going the Distance
On a weekend away from sportscars, Allan McNish indulged one of his other passions, motorbikes, and was treated to a passenger ride around Misano by MotoGP racer turned commentator Randy Mamola
A thrill of a lifetime, my sincere thanks to Randy Mamola
Hello everyone.
I have just left Misano in Italy where I have had one of the best motorsport experiences for a long time. It was superb.
The MotoGP scene is very different to the last time I was there, when it was the old 500s. The competition in all of the classes is just as extreme, but my visit was topped off by a ride on the two-seater MotoGP Ducati with Randy Mamola.
