As someone who's known the heat on the ground, I have to say how seriously Honda and Yamaha fought each other in WGP. The sparks of that era are what pushed Japanese machines to the top of the world. Seeing the two companies stand side by side in one exhibition genuinely moves me. Every single machine carries the obsession to win etched into it. If it's viewable at Motegi from July 18th, race fans have no choice but to go.

For a special exhibition, how much you enjoy it really depends on the crowd, so I'd rather go on a weekday.

If it opens July 18th, heading out to Motegi before summer break sounds like a good plan.

Is WGP basically the predecessor to MotoGP?

Yeah, it's the old name for the road racing world championship, sounds like you'll be able to trace the evolution of GP machines too.

Just hearing that memorabilia from the sparks-flying WGP era will all be on display makes me want to go.

Sworn rivals teaming up — this is the kind of event that only works at Motegi.
