    It´s no legal to drive motorbikes off road in Spain. We do because we are faster than the guards on their Yamahas XT but sometimes we have to pay a lot.

    Is that the national investment?:evil

    On track races we have some very good circuits but not better than France, England or Germany. I think we have so good riders because we follow them in TV since we are young and kids want to be stars like them. MotoGP has been on free tv since the 70´s

    On Dakar we are good because Paris Dakar was crosing our conuntry many years and we han some legends like Arcarons on TV and making a school of drivers like Roma or Coma with Repsol´s money at the proyect.
