Episode description

In the debut episode of Racing Back, hosts Nick and Julian fire up the engines and set off on a thrilling journey through the golden age of MotoGP and superbike history. With a rich blend of passion and nostalgia, they dig deep into their encyclopedic memories, bringing legendary names back to life – from the charismatic Barry Sheene and fearless Kenny Roberts to the indomitable Carl Fogarty.

Expect animated recollections and warm tributes, including a nod to the voice of motorsport himself, the unforgettable Murray Walker. Julian opens the vault on his own racing days with tales from 'Superbike Island', unlikely 'privateer' victories, and a curious detour into one of the sport’s most fascinating engineering oddities – the infamous Honda NR500 with its mind-bending oval pistons.

Racing Back isn’t just about the races – it’s about the stories, the grit, the glamour, and the groundbreaking machines that defined a generation. Buckle up for a ride into MotoGP’s most iconic era.
