The present riders and also the son of the famous racer Bohumil Staš Jr. of the same name learned about the ceremony. “When we went to watch MotoGP on the service road, we were always in the seventh turn the longest. We stayed in other sections only for a while, but we were here for thirty minutes. I think it was his favorite turn. He rode here a few times at the end of his career, but as an active racer, of course, everyone remembers him mainly from the original circuit, “said Staša Jr. His father was a twenty-time national motorcycle champion and twice took the podium at the World Championships. He died two years ago.
