Carl Fogarty

Carl Fogarty, Foggy to his fans, is one of those competitors whose nerve fascinates me more than his trophy count, and the count is enormous. Four World Superbike titles and 59 race wins put him among the all-time greats, but superbike racing demands a recklessness with consequences a car driver never faces, and he had it in abundance. Son of a racer himself, he rode like a man defending family pride. The MBE and his FIM Legend status confirm what fans always knew. What I admire most is that he kept building, moving into team management, refusing to be only the man who once went fast.
