EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by BikeSport TT Race Pics, we are transported back to the thrilling atmosphere of the 1966 Ultra Lightweight race. The image showcases legendary rider Phil Read as he stands poised on his Yamaha, intently surveying his Honda rivals Luigi Taveri and Ralph Bryans. Little did he know that perhaps he should have turned his attention towards his own teammate, Bill Ivy. As the anticipation builds before the start of the race, Read's focused gaze reveals a determination to conquer his formidable opponents. However, fate had other plans in store for him. Unbeknownst to Read at that moment, it was Ivy who would emerge victorious in this exhilarating contest. Bill Ivy's remarkable achievement is highlighted by record-breaking lap times and an undeniable display of skill and precision on the track. While Read may have been preoccupied with sizing up Taveri and Bryans, it was Ivy who ultimately stole the spotlight with an awe-inspiring performance. This print serves as a reminder that sometimes our focus can be misplaced when assessing our competition. It also highlights how success can come from unexpected sources within our own team or circle of colleagues. BikeSport TT Race Pics has masterfully captured this historic moment in motorcycle racing history – a snapshot filled with intense rivalry, unforeseen triumphs, and valuable lessons learned along the way.
