From June 23 to 26, 2022, motorcycle enthusiasts will descend on Sussex, England, for the Goodwood Festival of Speed. This year’s event will highlight technological advances with a “The Innovators—Masterminds of Motorsport” theme, but the annual fest will also feature one of the most heartfelt moments in motorcycling.
With organizers welcoming Wayne Rainey as a guest of honor, the three-time 500cc Grand Prix champ will ride his championship-winning 1992 Yamaha YZR500 on the legendary Goodwood Hillclimb course. The event will mark the first time that Rainey pilots a Grand Prix race bike since a crash at the 1993 Italian Grand Prix left the MotoGP Legend paralyzed from the chest down.
