1979
(age 39)
Mike Hailwood's Complete
Motorcycle Racing Career. Every race he rode, every
trophy he won, every spill he took. Based on Mike's
personal records.
Mike came back to win once again in 1979,
the last year of his racing career. He came off his
bike, a rare occurrence, practicing for a farewell appearance
at Donington Park on the 500cc Suzuki. He never rode
professionally again.
