Australian GP Star John Dodds (circa 1974)

A closeup portrait of Australian racer John Dodds who was a 4-time Grand Prix winner and finished third in the 250cc Grand Prix World Championship in 1973. Dodds raced in GPs from 1966 to 1978 and was a fairly regular visitor to the podium with 21-career podiums. In 1974 Dodds won the FIM Formula 750 Championship riding a Yamaha TZ350. Dodds passed away early this year. He was 80. He’ll always be remembered as being one of the top privateers of his era in Grand Prix racing. (Cycle News photo) #johndodds #motogp #grandprixwinner
