Barry Sheene 1950–2003

Barry’s impact on motorcycle racing in the UK was huge and is still talked about to this day. No one did as much for the sport, on or off the track, and that he’s still spoken about so much tells its own tale. Other riders may have won more Grands Prix and more world titles, but his personality, charisma and willingness to speak his mind benefited not just himself, but every motorcycle racer since.
