EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from The Northcliffe Collection, we find motor racing legend Barry Sheene in the heat of competition at the Evening News Race at Brands Hatch in 1979. The image captures the raw energy and intensity of the sport, as Sheene expertly navigates the winding track on his motorbike, leaving a trail of dust and gravel in his wake. The scene is set against the backdrop of the bustling race circuit, with the crowds of spectators lining the edges of the track, their faces etched with excitement and anticipation. The grandstands loom in the distance, a testament to the enduring popularity of motor racing in the late 1970s. Barry Sheene, a British motorcycle road racer, was a dominant force in the sport during this era. Known for his fearless riding style and charismatic personality, he was a crowd favorite and a formidable competitor. In this race, he would go on to claim another victory, adding to his impressive list of accolades. The photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era in motor racing history, a time when the sport was still in its infancy and the thrill of the race was raw and unfiltered. The image is a testament to the passion and dedication of the riders, the fans, and the sport itself. The Northcliffe Collection, a vast archive of photographs and news articles from the Mail Newspapers, is a treasure trove of historical moments in British history.
