Dutch Treat
Holland's own Gerard Rond, on the
factory-backed Yamaha, looks back and
sees Suzuki's Akira Watanabe (6) on the
attack during the 125cc Dutch Motocross
Grand Prix in 1978. Rond went on to take
the day's win, but Watanabe went on to
win the World Championship. Watanabe is
the first and only Japanese racer to win
an FIM MX World Championship.
