Triple World Speedway champion Greg Hancock is to make a guest appearance on NGK Spark Plugs stand at the forthcoming 2014 MotorCycle Live Show.
The 44-year-old American will be on NGK’s stand (Hall 2 2B20) at the NEC Birmingham on Wednesday, November 26, just a month after securing the 2014 FIM Speedway World Championship.
Greg became the oldest rider to win the title when he clinched his third world title at the Borygo Torun FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Poland. He is the first American to win Speedway’s biggest prize three times after victories in 1997 and 2011.
NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd has sponsored Greg for a number of years, supplying its specialist Iridium racing plugs which he uses on his 500cc bikes, and is delighted he is joining the company at the show, which is being held on November 22nd to 30th.
Marko Wowczyna, Automotive Director, NGK Spark Plugs (UK) Ltd, said, “We are thrilled that Greg has agreed to be our guest at the show. He is very well respected within not only the Speedway world, but across the entire motorcycling scene, and is very popular with fans. He is a great ambassador for Speedway and NGK and we are delighted that he will join us at Motorcycle Live so soon after his latest world championship.”
