one of the greatest races of all time. the fourstroke just edging out the two stroke really marked the deaths of the 250 two stroke at the top level. all down hill after this..... Historical moment
It's funny that when the guys came to race in Brazil they complained about the dust, look at this Austrian circuit, certainly nobody complains because it's in Europe.
Being that the yamaha was nearly twice the engine size of the Suzuki, a bit of an unfair advantage even if the RM was a 2 stroke . The Yamaha had better low down power and torque .
