[QUOTE="okow, post: 103687, member: 14"] Oops, accidently sent: Yes, Im glad to see a few "bikers" here and even some who remember the Great Agostini. Agostini still holds the record for the most straight wins - 7 times in a row. In those days we had names like Mike Hailwood and of course the great great John Surtees. Many of you might remember him as a F1 World Champion racing for Ferrari but did you know that he was also a 4 time GP500 World Champion before switching to race cars. This is where the plan is for Ross's future...being multiple World Champion in every class in GP motorcycle racing, there very little left for him to prove. From 125 to 250 to 500 and now Motor GP. Being World Champ with Honda to switch camps to Yamaha and win the World crown in his 1st year, speaks leaps and bounds for the rider. Then came Agostini with 7 straight World Championshipsand the 8th one after a 2 year break and switching to Yamaha. Of course the late Barry Sheene stepped in immediately after and had many fond battles with Kenny Roberts Sr. [/QUOTE]
