1951 Motorcycle World Championships DVD - Description
A rare colour film from acclaimed producer Sam Coles of the eight 'international classics' that comprised the 1951 World Motorcycle Road Racing Championships. Featuring the Spanish, Swiss, Belgian, French, Ulster and Nations GPs, plus the Dutch and IOM TT. Geoff Duke and his single-cylinder Norton challenge the multi-cylinder Gilera, Moto Guzzi and MV Agusta teams in some thrilling dices.
As 'Motor Cycling' said at the time "Contains some remarkable fine wet-weather shots of the Swiss and Ulster Grands Prix and gives a most effective impression of the high-speed descent of Bray Hill in the Isle of Man. Geoff Duke's lightning getaway at the start of the 350cc Belgian GP is brilliantly filmed."
Complete with original commentary by Graham Walker, father of Murray.
