1999 World Superbike Monza - Edwards vs. Fogarty

[1MexJ]

keith was such a legendary commentary for wsbk and motogp

[LicklagerMtl]

Yep...one of the greatest races ever with one of the best announcers ever....that Aussie Guy...man he get's as excited as what you see live...and him and us watching ...blow our minds!!!

[vaadaenmacchi]

[jezuz12345]

Great footage, thanks for uploading!!!

[pancon5]

Fantastic racing, fantastic commentating

[mytyflyguy]

im just glad that i have had the honor of watching rossi win many titles. the tail end of gary mccoy's carear (drift king). and troy baylis vs haga in troy's last few years racing an epic duel was had through those years. gp and wsb is my religion, and Valentino Rossi is God, while Troy Bayliss is Jesus Christ.

[mytyflyguy]

im willing to pay good money for old tapes in the 90's of wsb and motogp. sadly i have nothing on tape of that era as i was born in '86 still remember my dad screaming at the tv screen but cant remember the races. but he still rambles on about the greats of that time and even before that.

[makeminealarge1]

the good old days os WSB

[ClozzaIsTheBestEnitt]

The Texas Tornado was riding a bike with a 250cc disadvantage though!

[antonelloateloanto]

Che ultimo giro spettacolare di King Carl!

[SirCreef]

Foggy............ Legend :-)

[vaadaenmacchi]

keith huewen and julian ryder are the best commentators.

[ImPiergiorgio]

good old times....when ducati honda and suzuki was all competitive bikes with really good bikers

[throttlehard]

This is classic! Gotta love these moments. I would like to upload old motoGP when Kenny Roberts JR being the champ but motoGP is so copyright minded and they will remove it. Glad we are able to view these vids that you've uploaded. Keep em' coming.

-just another fan of Kenny Roberts JR-

[vellotrol]

Fuck Foggy!!

[Coffeestate]

Edwards by 5/1000ths of a second!!! Wow...and then a few seconds later Foggy's the winner!!! Awesome, absolutely awesome! I watched this race LIVE and everytime I see this video, I get a panic attack....my heartbeat just races, but not quite as fast as these boys! Gotta love World Superbike!!! Foggy vs Edwards!!! WOW!!!

[bulit1983]

gare cosi si vedono solo in SBK!!!! gara stupenda!! e posso dire che c'ero anch'io a monza quel giorno!!!!

[alex50special]

risposta a dinuguan510!!!!!!!Prima pensate poi parlate!!!!!

[DSNCB919]

This should be an Olympic sport

[thaiger17]

I gotta say neukirchner vs. haga 2008 was not to bad either

[EJ25RUN]

Go HAGA

[dinuguan510]

BFD.... 10 years later Edwards is still out there, handing his Brit teammate his ass in GP's, and Spies is doing the same in WSBK.... meanwhile Foggy's miserably failed superbike team disappeared how many years ago? NEXT!

[luke4200]

@dinuguan510 u fuckin twat foggy stopped racing because of injury and his team faild due 2 lack of funds .if he woz so shit y did he show edwards how it woz done for that many years....u knob

[rapid13]

@luke4200 Be honest - the Foggy/Petronas team failed because 1) the bike was a piece of shit; 2) they hired development riders to race; and 3) Foggy is no team manager or businessman - he's a pure bred motorcycle racer.

And yes, Foggy stopped when he got hurt, but he wasn't going to beat CEIII on the SP1 anyways, not that year.

[alex50special]

Amico devi vedere anche una cosa che King Fogarty ha 10 anni in più di edwards quindi oggi ha 45 anni!!!!!mentre edwards ne ha ancora 36!!!!a 36 anni fogarty c'era ancora quindi non dire le cazzate!!!!!!!!Guardale bene le cose!!!!!

[nitrogaia]

@alex50special io c'ero alla parabolica!!!

Avevo 13 anni e sono scappato da casa con la graziella per vedere questi eroi!!!

[REVRAC74]

@dinuguan5 10 Io years later and still not done nothing in GP's and will never hold a candle to Foggy in WSBK and if you knew anything about Foggy's team, you'd know the bike was a cheap heap of junk, that was so bad it didn't see the light of day out of production.

[gengiscank]

THE KING WONS!!!!!!

[tman467]

If any of you have seen the photo finish, you will see that foggy won fair and square not even Edwards would argue. END OF STOREY.......

[tman467]

If any of you have seen the photo finish picture, it's clear foggy won fair and square. END OF STORY

[gonzalito1988]

THE SUZUKI IS A TL 1000R??

[Novantii]

gsxr750

the bimota had a suzuki 1000 twin motor in it though, i think a tl 1000r motor but could be wrong

[schwantz3434]

NO MATE ITS A GSXR750

[woolo16]

NO you goon its a GSXR 750

[dinuguan510]

I don't get it. Since Carl was the favored rider of Europe he gets to have the transponders ignored? He isn't half the champ Bayliss is anyway. Asshole

[SmeurkeDeKat]

Ur right :s I dont get it either.. So Edwards did .005 seconds worth of distance MORE than Foggy? I'd say This race was rigged :\ Fogarty should have hung his transponder more to the front of his bike. Similar issue occured in the Belgian championship once. A bike finished ahead but was given second place, because he placed the transponder on the subframe while the winner placed it on the front fork. There was no discussion since both schould have covered an equal amount of race distance.

[rdbextreme]

It's pretty cheap that they gave it to Fogarty b/c he went off the track in the final turn in order to make the pass.

[wilbecon]

It's not illegal to run where he did. It just takes more courage. I am an Edwards fan but that was one great move.

[1901974]

easy to see fogarty was ahead

[little69111]

Carl was a moody bastard but the best 4-stroker rider b4 motogp switched and Rossi jumped on the RCV211. Great hearing rossis commentary even tho i dont speak italian - lol

[little69111]

Bayliss was great but it was already and established bike when he rode it. Foggy developed the new bike virtually single handed 94-95 (won). Left for a year - started to get the rc45 rideable and then left - came back in 97 and the bike was a dog. in 98 was in a team on his own so no sharing of data - Chillis bike was q obviously quicker in a str8 line too. Got back on the proper factory bike in 1999 and totally destroyed the opposition.

[Avo1987]

RC45 mmmm makes me warm and fuzzy.

[soytupadre09]

foggy for ever, great ducatti performance the best championships!!

[arcieresegreto]

At 3:33 i see just one motorbike.

[ITW84]

10 years on and can anyone honestly say they can tell who came first?

[jd32polini]

As much as i love foggy !! (Im a brit) haha we rulee !! haha no but i must admite that was a draw.. no doubts

[adambattye01]

go on foggy

[r1wantone]

WSB best years

[zzboobzz]

Monza, always a great track.

[targethonda]

These two blokes are some of the best commentators in the world. Thanks for uploading

[vkartikv]

keith huewen and julian ryder. the best!

[skaprazz]

Ducati 916...bellissima e cattivissima!!!

[StFidjnr]

from 3:52-4:00 survey says Carl Fogarty.

[StFidjnr]

the Texas tornado said "I win" until the final corner.

[gian9dona]

the computer said "Texas tornado until the finish line"

[howieboy62032914]

Why the hell was the result changed? How did they manage to make a mistake like that? If i was Edwards, i would be fucking furious

[BikerBonno]

That's some impressive wheelie by Yanagawa!

[funkyrimpler]

wot an idiot llewelyn was/is..utter cretin

[galatube]

great great video! and great great foggy. simply the best.

[little69111]

"And the crowd have gone POTTY!" - classic race classic commentary

[tornadomk3]

King Carl... Un grande...

[crazylegs187]

great stuff ;]

[zecareca85]

fantastic racing

[ispitanfart]

Absolute top draw racing. Hockenhiem was also an awesome circuit until the safety idiots got their pencils out and redesigned it into the shitty heap of crap it is now. Same with Assen too. 80s and 90s racing was unreal and had you sitting on the edge of your seat. Nowadays its all about saving your tyres for the last lap which makes 99% of the race boring. I never thought id say that about motorcycle racing.

[lukebartolo]

can I see the reaction foggy realize he's the winner

[ChiliFan06]

Sky Sports were the only channel to show it, since they had a camera stationed in pit lane, but I'm afraid I don't have that.

[lukebartolo]

ok but is the closest race in WSBK history

[BikerBonno]

If you've seen his celebration when he won at Assen in 1996, that is exactly what it's like. It's on youtube somewhere. He was jumping up and down on the pegs before being swamped by his entire team!

[StFidjnr]

and as Keith Huewen said at the time "the Brits are going nuts here"

[pace461]

@lukebartolo yes foggy is winer I look thet od the shadow !!

[lukebartolo]

fast tracks made gr8 racing

[plausible57]

Where do you find this footage! LOVE IT!!!!!

[ChiliFan06]

I found this on the internet but I have a lot of old Superbike races on tape.

[SRUSSELL4]

Hey, Do You have 1994 sbk on U.S. VHS? I cant find it anywhere

[Luka620Dark]

[00GiGaByte00]

Che spettacolo la SBK
