VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This image captures a historic moment in motorcycle racing, featuring a rider leaning into a turn on the race track. The caption "The first Rotax engine TT victory" highlights the significance of this event, marking the first time that a bike powered by an Austrian-made Rotax in-line twin engine won at the Tourist Trophy (TT) races. Specifically mentioned is Steve Tonkin's win during the 1981 Junior TT on his Armstrong motorcycle equipped with such an engine. The bike sports number 15 and displays sponsorship logos from Randle Racing, Shell, and Armstrong among others. It's painted in striking yellow and black colors which stand out against the backdrop of trackside advertising banners—one prominently reading "GRASSERE. " This photo not only celebrates technological achievement but also commemorates a notable performance by racer Steve Tonkin.
