For motorcycle enthusiast, Lai Tao, the most exciting moment is not only the moment when he steps on the motorcycle, but also when he is watching the motorcycle race. Many riders may have heard of MotoGP, WSBK and other motorcycle races before watching them, but it is hard to tell the difference between the two races. Or watch the left MotoGP, I don’t know if there are any other motorcycle races to watch. Today, Helmet King has sorted out the six most worth-watching motorcycle races for everyone. Remember to share with the motorcycle enthusiasts around you!

MotoGP

MotoGP is the highest hall of motorcycling racing events in the world today, and most of the familiar names of motorcyclists come from this, such as: Rossi (VR46), Márquez (MM93) and other characters are MotoGP drivers, also because of their fame , the major helmet brands will provide sponsorship and exclusive painting for top drivers, so when buying a helmet, sometimes you can choose the same painted helmet as the player. The cars used by MotoGP drivers are all "factory racing cars", which means that these models are not sold in the market, but are purely for the track and "the purest speed machine" for racing. The top black technology made by the car factory with all its strength, the maximum speed on the field exceeds 300km/h, and it is guaranteed to be exciting when watching!

WSBK

In addition to MotoGP, WSBK is also a motorcycling event that is usually heard occasionally. The full name of WSBK is World SuperBiKe Championship ( World Super Motorcycle Championship). The biggest difference between WSBK and MotoGP is that the tanks of WSBK players must be improved from the "mass-produced models" of major car manufacturers. The mass-produced models referred to here mean that the minimum production volume must reach 500 or more, so many The reason why the limited car models of the product factory will be limited to 500 units, such as DUCATI Superleggera V4. The chariots you see on the WSBK track may one day be seen on the street, such as: YAMAHA YZF-R1, HONDA CBR1000RR-R, BMW M1000RR, etc.

Moto 2／Moto 3

When we mention MotoGP, we usually refer to the highest level (GP) event in MotoGP, but in fact, there are three levels under MotoGP: Moto 3, Moto 2 and Moto GP. The difference between the three is that there are different restrictions on the maximum engine displacement of the racing car. Moto GP class is the highest 1000c.c., while Moto 2 and Moto 3 are 765c.c. and 250c.c. respectively. Many GP riders, most of them have played for Moto 2 and Moto 3 teams before being promoted to GP, so the game is definitely not bad to watch, and you may even unintentionally participate in a driver’s journey from a novice to a hall of fame Character process! Therefore, in addition to MotoGP, Moto 2 and Moto 3 races will also be a good choice for riders who love racing events.

MotoE

With the development of electric vehicles becoming more and more mature, motorcycles have also begun to move towards electrification, and the same is true in competition. MotoE is a racing event for electric motorcycles. It is currently using uniform racing cars provided by the new electric motorcycle brand Energica. However, in 2023 next year, the well-known sports motorcycle brand DUCATI will be used as the supplier of unified racing cars. I believe that the visibility of the event will become higher and higher. In addition to seeing the fierce competition on the field, MotoE is also a great opportunity to glimpse the development of top electric motorcycle technology. How will the performance and appearance of the electrified DUCATI change? It is really worth the expectation of all riders!

Isle of Man TT

If you follow car racing, chances are you've heard of the Isle of Man TT. The Isle of Man TT race is held on the streets of the Isle of Man in the United Kingdom. It is the only event in the world that completely uses closed public streets as a track. Because it is not an event held on an orthodox closed circuit, the difficulty and danger for drivers to compete on it is higher than other events, because the road surface quality and road conditions on public roads are more unstable, and there is no racing field beside the curve There is a buffer zone above, so the risk is higher. On the way to the race, you will pass the Snaefell Mountain Course (Snaefell Mountain Course) with a total length of 60.72 kilometers and more than 200 bends. The very narrow outer road surface is rough and undulating. Because of the dangers derived from the nature of the track, more than 200 people have died because of the race since its inception. But also because of the uniqueness created by its street race, it still attracts many drivers to participate and attracts many spectators to watch.

Dakar Rally

The Dakar Rally and the Isle of Man TT are also competitions with both car and motorcycle levels, and they are also not held on formal closed racing tracks. The track of the Dakar Rally will pass through harsh environments such as deserts, muds, and rocks. Therefore, in motorcycle-level events, competitors do not compete with sports cars but with off-road motorcycles. In addition to the harsh environment of the track, drivers have to face environmental factors such as weather. The temperature can exceed 40 degrees during the day, but it is below freezing at night. Both the driver and the car are facing great challenges. In the past, KTM had monopolized the Dhaka Motorcycle Rally Championship for many years, but the rise of HONDA in recent years has greatly increased the visibility of the event, and the Dakar Rally is also a rare event that does not use sports cars to compete, which is very special and beautiful!
