‘TRACTIVE

Suzuki is holding its annual track day at Silverstone’s GP circuit on September 4.

On hand for instructing duties will be professional riders including John Reynolds, Taylor Mackenzie, Simon Crafar, James Whitham and Sylvain Guintoli. You’d never get a line-up of pros like this at a car track day.

There’s too much money in car racing for drivers to need to get involved and they tend not to have the same passion as the bike racers. As a bonus, Barry Sheene’s son Freddie will also be there. Places cost £199. See silverstone.co.uk.
