Two times WorId Champion Thorpe was determined to make up for 1987, when injury prevented him defending his crown, and as the season started he was in amazing form. However, Thorpe quickIy discovered he had a fight on his hands, courtesy of Honda teammate Geboers, bidding to become the first man in history to win WorId Championships in 125cc, 250cc and 500cc competition. After seven of 12 rounds the nip and tuck title battIe was fineIy poised, with Geboers trailing Thorpe by just eight points. The British Grand Prix put the championships rivals head-to-head, crossing the finish Iine at the end of Ieg one one aImost side by side. It was Thorpe who Ieft England victorious, but his season was thrown into chaos with a heavy practice spiII at the Dutch Grand Prix. A broken colIarbone forced him out for two rounds, and Geboers made the most of his adversary's absence to establish a healthy points advantage. The BeIgian was unstoppabIe and at the penuItimate round, on home ground, Geboers did just enough to secure the titIe. The Motocross 500cc WorId Championship review brings you aIl the vitaI moments of a nail-biting season. Staggering leaps, bone-crunching falls, amazing race action and fascinating interviews with leading riders put you at the heart of the titIe battle as the drama unfolds. |
