ONE HD’s coverage of tonight’s British Grand Prix at Silverstone will see Australian Jeremy Burgess, Valentino Rossi’s chief mechanic and one of the most respected engineers in the last 30 years of MotoGP, as a special guest analyst for all three classes along with Greg Rust and Daryl Beattie.

In addition to his acclaimed work with seven-time MotoGP World Champion Rossi, Burgess was also instrumental in the world championships of Australia’s own Mick Doohan and Wayne Gardner.

MotoGP returns to Silverstone for the first time in 24 years this weekend and Burgess was there the last time so he’s able to provide a unique perspective. Burgess is currently in Australia while Rossi recuperates from his broken leg sustained in practice at the Italian Grand Prix.

ONE’s coverage will will be broadcast tonight, Sunday 20 June, at 8:00-12:30pm AEST, repeated on Network Ten from 11:00-1:45pm.
