About this deal

For lovers of two-wheeled motorsport, MOTOCOURSE stands alone as the leading yearbook covering the sport. In a single essential volume, AUTOCOURSEprovides the most comprehensive record of world motor sport, complete with full results not found anywhere in a single volume. Motor racing’s other major categories are also fully covered: Toyota’s WEC and Le Mans sports car successes; the closely-fought Formula 2 and Formula 3 championships, featuring emerging young talent from around all continents of the world; and the tightly fought Formula E series for electric powered single seaters. MOTOCOURSE also covers the racing in the USA, via the Moto America Superbike series which saw Yamaha’s Jake Gagne emerging as a convincing winner in the Superbike class and Sean Dylan Kelly an equally dominant champion in the Supersport class. The 18-race MotoGP championship produced a fascinating mix of races which saw no fewer than eight different riders take victories in the first fourteen rounds, before the season climaxed in Valencia in November.

For 2021 a record 22-race schedule was planned, and despite changes to venues, the F1 championship was very much up and running by March 2021. Full coverage is given of the 13-round World Superbike Series in which Yamaha's defending champion Toprak Razgatlioglu faced a resurgent Jonathan Rea and a returning Alvaro Bautista to Ducati. All the races and the seasons bikes and riders are put under the microscope by leading Superbike writer Gordon Ritchie who also covers the World Supersport class with Yamaha the dominant force. Fascinating sub-stories abounded, with the multiple champion Marc Marquez having his season curtailed by recurring injuries and the abrupt decision of Suzuki to pull out of MotoGP competition at the end of the 2022 season, which left the rider market in disarray.

Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton – now the winningest driver in history – broke more records. The Briton smashed through the 100 pole-position barrier, and later in the season reached a century of Grand Prix wins in the face of a real championship challenge from Max Verstappen. MOTOCOURSE also covers the racing in the USA, via the Moto America Superbike series which saw Yamaha’s Jake Gagne emerging the winner again in the Superbike class despite a spirited season long challenge from MotoGP veteran Danilo Petrucci. Motocoursehas been running for an incredible 47 years and in that time it’s grown to become the premier volume of account for international motorcycle racing.

The Isle of Man TT and other road races return after a two year break due to the pandemic, there were some notable performances but also tragedy as several lost their lives in their pursuit of victory. Another record breaking 22 Grand Prix season saw Red Bull Racing and Ferrari go head to head with some spectacular races and epic drives from all four drivers, each one winning one or more races. Mercedes with Lewis Hamilton and new recruit George Russell struggled for most of the season with aero and relentless porpoising until mid way through the season when their performances improved and some notable qualifying and race results appeared, but far too late to challenge for the top spot.

Since its launch in 1976 it has evolved through the decades into the most authoritative chronicle on the FIM motorcycling world and key national championships.
