It might have been the fumes of the 40:1 fuel mix but I had a tear in my eye when the chequered flag came out for the last ever competitive two stroke race in the Moto GP paddock on Sunday at Aragon.

The sight, sound and smell were fantastic and the clean close racing was a fitting end to a very special era.
