John Surtees - A Determined Comeback on Two Wheels
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by John Topham, we witness the legendary John Surtees in action at Brands Hatch on his trusty Norton motorbike. It is February 23rd, 1957, and Surtees is seen pushing himself to the limit as he strives to regain his fitness after a devastating crash. With his crash helmet securely fastened and clad in sleek leathers of the era, Surtees exudes an air of resilience and determination. Despite taking things slowly during his recovery process, there is an undeniable fire burning within him – a desire to once again conquer the racetrack. As he navigates each turn with precision and skill, it becomes evident that Surtees has set his sights on returning to competitive racing just in time for the Easter races. The photograph encapsulates both the physical demands of motorcycle racing in the 1950s and Surtees' unwavering commitment to reclaiming his position among motorsport's elite. This image serves as a powerful testament not only to John Topham's exceptional photography skills but also to John Surtees' indomitable spirit. It reminds us that setbacks are merely temporary roadblocks on our journey towards success.
