Former road race driver, motocrosser and now the big boss of Yamaha Europe Eric de Seynes has shared his memories in the 300-page book “Legends”. A great end-of-year gift for the true motorcycle racing enthusiast.
Eric de Seynes has been a privileged player and witness in the motorcycle world for almost 50 years as a mechanic, rider, journalist, producer, team manager during world championships, director of sponsorship of Formula 1 and Grand Prix motorcycles and organizer and promoter of championships.
De Seynes, currently president of Yamaha Motor Europe, has always been committed to living his passion to the full every day.
This unique career has given De Seynes a wealth of experience as well as a close relationship with many of the personalities who ‘created’ motorcycling and the racing legends who have won world championships over the decades.
In the 300-page book “Legends”, De Seynes shares more than just his memories. He thanks those with whom he has made his life’s journey and he shares his passion through 40 portraits of champions and important figures from the world of motorcycling.
In a story full of personal memories, anecdotes and previously unpublished photos, De Seynes pays tribute to the passion, genius and talent of those who wrote and continue to write the incredible history of motorsport.
“This book takes us to the heart of passion, racing and the world of motorcycling as we all love it,” said Jorge Viegas, President of the International Motorcycling Federation (FIM).
A great end-of-year gift for the true motorcycle racing enthusiast. ‘Legends’ is available in both English and French languages and can be ordered online via Yamaha Motor or purchased from official Yamaha dealers throughout Europe.
Proceeds from the sale of ‘Legends’ will be donated to the Endowment Fund for Motorcycling Sport Heritage, an organization dedicated to preserving the heritage of motorsports.
