Road Racing World Championship season. Season summary Italian Franco Uncini on the Roberto Gallina backed Suzuki took a well-earned championship for Roberto Gallina's Italian Suzuki team in the 500cc class.Dennis Noyes 1999 Michael Scott Motocourse: 50 Years Of Moto Grand Prix Hazleton Publishing Ltd 1-874557-83-7 Yamaha introduced a new motorcycle with a V4 engine for Kenny Roberts but, suffered from having to develop a new bike during the season. Roberts was also now using Dunlop tires after Goodyear withdrew from motorcycle racing. Honda abandoned its NR500 four-stroke in favor of a V3 two-stroke NS500 piloted by American newcomer, Freddie Spencer, defending champion Marco Lucchinelli and veteran Takazumi Katayama. Spencer would give Honda its first 500cc win since the 1967 season and its first with a two-stroke. Kawasaki would continue to campaign its KR500 with rider Kork Ballington but developing a new motorcycle proved to be difficult, and after three years in the 500cc class without being able to recreate the same success they had experienced in the smaller classes, they made the decision to withdraw from world championship competition after the 1982 season leaving Ballington without a job.https://www.cyclenews.com/2022/06/article/archives-column-kork-ballington/ Archives: Ballington Comes to America cyclenews.com 20 June 2023 Roberts injured a finger and a knee at the British Grand Prix and would miss the remainder of the season. Barry Sheene was lying third in the championship, tied on points with Roberts after eight rounds however, his season was brought to a premature end while testing the new Yamaha V4. He hit the obscured fallen machine of Frenchman Patrick Igoa during practice at Silverstone and badly broke both legs and an arm. Most of the factory sponsored riders boycotted the French round at Nogaro in protest of the unsafe track conditions. Anton Mang successfully defended his 350 title for Kawasaki despite winning only one race. He would be the final 350 world champion as the class would be discontinued after 1982. Mang lost his 250 crown to Jean-Louis Tournadre by one point despite winning five races. Tournadre's only victory would be at the boycotted French round. The Frenchman would become France's first world champion. Angel Nieto clinched his eleventh title in the 125 class on a Garelli. In the 50cc class, Eugenio Lazzarini and Stefan Dörflinger traded wins, each rider winning three races, but Dörflinger took the title because of his three second-place finishes. 1982 Grand Prix season calendar The following Grands Prix were scheduled to take place in 1982: RoundDateGrand PrixCircuit 1 29 March Argentina Grand Prix de la Republica Argentina Autódromo Municipal de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires 2 2 May Austria Großer Preis von Österreich Salzburgring 3 9 May France Grand Prix de France Moto Circuit de Nogaro 4 23 May Spain Gran Premio Banco Atlántico Circuito Permanente Del Jarama 5 30 May Italy Gran Premio delle Nazioni Circuito Internazionale Santa Monica 6 26 June Netherlands Dutch TT Assen TT Circuit Assen 7 4 July Belgium Grand Prix of Belgium Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps 8 18 July Yugoslavia Grand Prix of Yugoslavia Autodrom Rijeka 9 1 August UK Marlboro British Grand Prix Silverstone Circuit 10 8 August Sweden Swedish TT Scandinavian Raceway 11 15 August Finland Finnish GP Imatra Circuit 12 29 August Czechoslovakia Grand Prix ČSSR Brno Circuit 13 5 September San Marino Grand Prix San Marino Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello 14 26 September Germany Großer Preis von Deutschland HockenheimringSources:http://www.jumpingjack.nl/GP-races_1982_heden.htm https://archive.today/20150725174920/http://www.jumpingjack.nl/GP-races_1982_heden.htm 25 July 2015 Alle Grand-Prix uitslagen en bijzonderheden, van 1973 (het jaar dat Jack begon met racen) tot heden jumpingjack.nl 17 July 2018 live https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/database/championships/1982-world-motorcycle-championship/ 1982 500cc World Championship race results motorsportmagazine.com 19 March 2026 Calendar changes The German Grand Prix was moved back, from 3 May to 26 September.
