Mallory Park Race of the Year

The Race of the Year was a non-championship motorcycle race held at the Mallory Park circuit in Leicester, England between 1958 and 1981, and again between 1986 and 2008, with a one-off race in 2011. It often attracted high quality entries from the Moto GP and Superbike World Championship. The first race was won by John Surtees, riding a MV Agusta.
