1991 Hockenheim: Schwantz vs Rainey

Kevin Schwantz's rivalry with Wayne Rayney characterized the MotoGp era that goes from the end of the 80’s to the beginning of the 90's. I started watching those races because of my brother, but it didn’t take much before those epic battles became my passion. Beside Schwants and Rainey I remember other incredible talents as Mamola, Gardner, Lawson and Doohan that raced until 1999 when he left his Honda to Valentino.
The video is emblematic because recalls Schwantz’s typical pass on the inside of his competitor, with the rear of his bike fish-tailing in a way so different from today's rear brake controlled sliding.
