Day Of Champions Starts Silverstone MotoGP 2011

Riders for Health, motorcycle stunts ahead of the MotoGP

There really is no other event like Day of Champions in any other sport and it has come to Silverstone Circuit ahead of this year’s MotoGP.

The Editor of AboutMyArea/NN12 popped along to have a quick look – it was certainly busy the new paddock is full of lorries ahead of the MotoGP the stands are up and the crowds are there.

Silverstone has got it nailed, its a big place but there are double decker buses making it easy for fans to move around.

For fans of motorcycle racing it is one of the highlights of the calendar. And best of all, all the money raised goes to help Riders for Health save lives in Africa.
 
On the Thursday before the British GP at Silverstone the stars of MotoGP come together to help support the official charity of MotoGP. Day of Champions is the only place where you can see all the stars of MotoGP when they appear on stage in the famous Day of Champions auction.

The climax of the day is the world famous Day of Champions auction. All of the stars of MotoGP are there, and you can have a great chance to bid for some truly amazing bits of MotoGP memorabilia.
