MotoGP fans will be in for a special treat when the Australian GP rolls around the weekend of October 14th to 16th, because GP and Australian legends Wayne Gardner and Mick Doohan will be riding a series of demonstration laps at the iconic Phillip Island circuit.
The day will carry extra significance for Gardner, who won the first two Australian Motorcycle Grands Prix at Phillip Island in 1989 and 1990, as he will also be joined by his 13 year-old son Remy.
Remy, who is currently competing in the 250cc Moto3 class in the Spanish Campeonato Mediterraneo de Velocidad with a Moriwaki 250 and won round 4 of this highly competitive junior championship, will be riding alongside his father with Honda’s Moto3 bike, the NSF250R.
Moto3 4-strokes will be replacing the current 125cc GP class in 2012.
It’s always a great pleasure to ride the Phillip Island circuit, it’s an enjoyable layout and really fast which I love.
I enjoyed a lot of special moments of my career there,” said the former 1987 World Champion.
“I see it as a real honour to ride on my home track in front of my fans with my son, I’m expecting it to be a really special moment in my life.
It’s great to be able to share a place and a sport that I am so passionate about with my family”.
And on riding side by side with his son, Gardner declared, “He’s too fast for me now so I prefer not to race.
He’s cheeky and wants to prove he can beat me.
It’s lucky I will be on a 1000cc and he will be on a 250cc.
