Dorna, the company behind MotoGP, held a press conference yesterday (20th June) at Donington Park media centre to mark this special Anniversary and the very first ceremony handing out the 'MotoGP Champions Towers' to all past winners of the world championship. Present at the UK conference was Dave Hailwood, the son of the legendary Mike Hailwood who won the championship consecutively from 1962 - 1965, Phil Read who was world champion in 1973 and 1974, Stuart Graham who's father was TT winner Les Graham and the first man to win a MotoGP race 60 years ago in 1949.
