Don’t miss the new MCN Sport

So that was the year that was. It saw the triumphant return of the four-strokes to Grand Prix, a titanic struggle for supremacy in World Superbikes and a British champion who proved age is no barrier to success.

But if you want the real story, you need the new issue of MCN Sport, out November 23. All the inside stories, the gossip, the pictures, the tactics and the technical – everything that made 2002 the very best yet is inside.

There’s interviews with the champs, their rivals and the rising stars, behind the fairings looks at the top bikes and every round of the big three road racing series analysed.

And there’s a special feature on Barry Sheene – the man behind the legend and how he plans to win his battle with cancer.

PLUS: Foggy’s WSB progress, Andrew Pitt on the Kawasaki ZX-RR, the future of WSB, girl racers, the gnarliest crash shots of 2002, Valentino Rossi examines his season, while Rossi’s crew chief Jerry Burgess gives his perspective. And we look back at the factory bikes we’ll never see in the top flight again: YZR500, NSR500, ZX-7R, Roberts KR3Suzuki GSX-R750 and Ducati 916-998.

All this, and more, can be yours for just £3.50 in the new MCN Sport, out November 23. Don’t miss it.
