Michael Dunlop steps into the driving seat of a Ford Escort Mark 1 for an exclusive in-depth interview with John Hogan. The 19-time TT winner and road racing legend talks of his love of rally cars, growing up around motorsport and what it takes to race.
“Your only limitation is confidence” explains Dunlop as he talks with John about about finding your limits on the course, whilst acknowledging that lap times only appear to be getting faster and faster. Looking ahead to TT 2022, Michael talks expectations, last minute changes and why he won’t be riding the PBM Ducati at this year’s races.

I met Michael at a track day in Cartagena. It was lunch break and he invited me into the garage to look over the bikes. He was really friendly and open👍👍

@ghostrider7688 Год назад

Met him also at a road race in Ireland 🇮🇪 He was having a sandwich n tea . Very cool guy , down to earth 👍

This is the best MD interview I have heard….congrats! MD is the crowd favourite, in my eyes, most exciting rider to watch and follow as he is so determined.

@88Scooby88 Год назад

Was just about to say the same thing, best interview I've seen of MD, possibly the best done on the channel

@ghostrider7688 Год назад

MD = TOP G 👍👍👍

@johnpirie3800 Год назад

What a humble, intelligent man. When you see him just about to start at the TT, of course he's focused and appears somewhat distant, that's what he has to do. What a wonderful interview. He's in the car with John, just two guys and its as if, the comparative safety and isolation of the wee mk 1 allows him to really open up. My already huge respect for this man has now went through the roof.

@viggoajackrussell-hyperact223 Год назад

I hope it’s okay for me as a Dane from Scandinavia, to say I have utmost respect of Road Racers, this is one of the best & honest interview I have seen.. I admire all of you who are during road races (top 1 to the last), after this interview, I have even more respect of MD.. the way he explains what was happening in the last 5+ years and why it went wrong, It takes a top guy to walk away knowing the press will be writing all sorts of stories afterwards, huge respect and all the best in 2023.

@stevec-b6214 Год назад

the few reservations i had about Michaels decisions have been totally answered, he is true to himself and his family. RESPECT.

@ronaldroberts9556 Год назад

Fascinating! What a humble gent. Huge respect!

@carlnicholson6710 Год назад

He's just a different breed this guy.

@eman19487 Год назад

Fantastic interview, he`s special and his own man and the Hicken`s obviously think the man is special. I just love this guy.👍

@Wayne.R Год назад

What an awesome insight into the man, the myth....THE Legend... Really enjoyed watching this and seeing how ordinary MD is, compared to others. He does his work, for the love and not the stardom. A great honest opinion. Fantastic!

@billybob8620 Год назад

Sheer class ,humble to the core.... Well done on your achievements micheal ,an inspiration to everyone..

@danogden1623 Год назад

Amazing interview. Thank you Michael, thank you John. Good luck this year Michael, we'll be sat cheering you on and whipping our feet out of the way just in time!

@frankymacf Год назад

I found this fascinating when I watched it in 2022. Still a great interview on the re-watch.

@trevorjones2473 Год назад

Megastar, no other word for Michael Dunlop.

@hughclare-talbot9309 Год назад

Wonderful to see Michael at ease and talking freely. Super interview. Thank you.

@HoofHearted801 Год назад

I understand this interview better by knowing of his Family's unspoken charitable efforts over many years. Joey would load up the van with his bike and food/clothing because where they were racing many of the locals were destitute and he used his racing schedule to help where he was able without telling others. Quiet humility coupled with sheer determination. And Michael saw all that.

@jonnymcdowell7296 Год назад

Proud to be a Ballymoney man. Well done MD great interview. Up the Toon!

@gaylenescott1317 Год назад

Oh my word!!! Exact replica of my very first car! Ford Escort , which my late father in law reconditioned with a racing gear box and steering wheel, having been a rally racer, which he presented to my late husband as our first car! I learnt to drive in it and it was unforgettable! I really want to meet Michael as he reminds me so much of between my late dad and late biker cousin.... And, what a legend road racer, yet seems such a down to earth man! Michael, You Rock and I'm rooting for you all the way from South Africa

@frankhenryrygge2458 Год назад

A really good interwiew, Michael is the real deal,Wish you all the best for 23 , Loose Smooth & Fast 👍👊✊🏍🥇🏆🏁🏁

@TTIOMEdge Год назад

Extremely honest and revealing interview (and I now know not to give him any advice based on playing the TT game 😂)

@rhyscasey7604 Год назад

Brilliant interview! Great to see and hear more of Michael Dunlop on this channel over the last few weeks. Most riders have their own channel or vlogs. They also do more interviews throughout the TT but that being said It would never make me change my opinion on Michael, such a genuine lad, doesn’t dress it up and says it how it is! Looking forward to seeing him at the NW200!

@ghostrider7688 Год назад

Facts 👆🏼

@plainclotheshorse224 Год назад

I enjoyed that.....Really enjoyed that.....Great interview.....Lovely bloke.....All the best for the TT.

@richardsracingmad Год назад

Tip: the jump at Rhencullen is a good MD spot too

@joeturner7453 Год назад

An amazing lad ' no BS just fast n honest isn't bothered by fame just a hardass racer i have had the pleasure of meeting many times ! always throw some cash on a MD win 10/10 video nice work great interview 🙌🏼 side note: moved here for the love of the TT & loving the place 🇮🇲🏍🇮🇲

@motomat2 Год назад

What a great Interview. Reckon Michael is destined to match or even surpass Joey's TT Legacy.

@ctf1537 Год назад

Fairplay, Honest and Matter of fact, I wish more people were like that

@jmg4040 4 месяца назад

Amazing honest interview , This is the Dunlop dynasty ,

@nodtripRS Год назад

Have to admire his attitude towards doing things, it's 50/50 him an team. If not walk. His life on the line. Many more wins coming the Dunlop way.

@HoofHearted801 Год назад

Reading between the lines, what I heard was that it is 100/100 him and team. If you're not willing to put in 100% then don't come, b.c he gives 100% (and more).

@adambritain5774 Год назад

What a fantastic interview. Managed to get a fair bit out of him than I’ve ever heard before. Wouldn’t begrudge any of these boys a single part of their success.

@MrDavewales Год назад

Brilliant interview, I met him at the TT this year, really friendly and down to earth.

@sylviaharmer-sk6hf Год назад

@gavinrogers1744 Год назад

all these interviews and they are all missing the question i need to know ( do you do much pleasure riding ? and what are you like on a pleasure ride? can you hold back and enjoy the riding or do you have the itch to send it

@stackupbreachclear4679 Год назад

Absolute road racing legend, my favorite rider, & the only one capable of breaking his uncle’s record

@lewiselliott7562 Год назад

Top man great watch

@1zigzags4 10 месяцев назад

What a absolute legend

@lold6130 Год назад

He's wrong! You have to be a special person to win a TT & deserves to be in the company of Royalty. The TT wouldn't be the same without a Dunlop racing.

@cliveramsbotty6077 Год назад

next year they'll go shopping for body warmers and a nice chat

@jaysmartin Год назад

😂 hadnt noticed they were both rocking a bodywarmer

@mad4tarmac Год назад

Best rider of all and you can try prove me wrong...the last of the pure breed road racers,no bsb no circuit racing and can jump on any bike and go fast at any road race..pure talent...all the other top riders do only the big 3 or 4 roads but Micky D will show up at em all.

@baronburgamot243 4 месяца назад

"its not limits its confidence, its where your confidence will take you, to where your limit is gonna go". If there's a takeaway here, its that.

@kneedownpom397 Год назад

Start talking the family name, music changes in the background, pushing the requirement to meet the expectations. MD just pushes it out the door and notes his 19 Tt’s Keep the sun on your face, and the wind on your back 🤙🏻

@regtheripper9789 Год назад

His the man

I heard Mike just got his motorcycle license,can I ask why,can anyone tell me the name. Of the cop to pull up on him? I've seen many try

@jaysmartin Год назад

More cc should also mean more torque as well as reliability, so should get out of the corners better too

@Jay-zc7iq Год назад

Im sure this came out last year ….

@krachenford9594 7 месяцев назад

Stay alive, boy, you're the last of the family!

@jaybird4915 Год назад

It is pretty insulting Ducati hung MD out to dry. No testing, no expert that was agreed to. Not good business

@ghostrider7688 Год назад

Disgraceful

@jaysmartin Год назад

Sounds pretty Ducati to me! If you're not Italian.. youre not getting proper factory support.

@billmiller2051 Год назад

Is 129 mph the top speed they reach?

@alleneire2197 Год назад

Average speed

@nrnsclark94 5 месяцев назад

Flat out they breach 200mph

@ast6537 3 месяца назад

Michael Dunlop is a no nonsense bloke... if he says he's gonna do something he will....but if you say your gonna do something and don't then your gone....I'm the same I'll do owt for anyone....but let me down and that's it finished!!

@paulricketts5537 Год назад

Pure bred road racer, dont make em like this anymore, unfortunately

@mckenzie125 Год назад

what ruins all these videos is the background music , why oh why, there's no need for it, either low fi crap or epic lord of the rings music. sort it out
