Episode 716: James Haydon

2023-02-03

This week Rich is joined on the pod by James Haydon, former GP500, BSB and WSBK rider and more recently a member of the Eurosport commentary team. James enjoyed a long career across multiple classes and has many a story to tell, from the evil 500cc 2 strokes, to fire emitting triples, 4 stroke superbikes and even a brief stint on the V5 Roberts MotoGP bike. Along the way, James won lots of races, but suffered many knocks and set backs. All in all, a fascinating discussion with a top bloke and one that we’re sure you’ll enjoy.
