A studio special titled 'It's August. Ai Ogura Won His First MotoGP Race.' airs on Nitele Jsports on August 6 at 9 p.m., featuring Ogura himself. His victory at the Dutch GP marked the first premier-class win by a Japanese rider since Makoto Tamada in 2004, 22 years earlier.
First premier-class win by a Japanese rider in 22 years, that's huge. I followed Tamada's win in real time back then, so I know exactly what this weight means. Winning on the Aprilia at the Assen TT circuit, that race carried the whole atmosphere through the screen. I'm watching the special too.

Gotta remember not to miss the airtime.
Having watched Tamada's win live back then, this hits different.
Seeing that 22-year gap written out really drives it home.
Just hearing "22 years" nearly gets me emotional.
The Assen TT circuit, I'd love to go watch it in person someday.
