Four-times World Superbike champion C🍷arl Fogarty has named American Scott Russell as his toughest racing rival.
Foggy won 59 races - and the world crown in 1994, 1995, 1998 and 1999 - during the golden era of WSBꦑK in which the class also contained such names as Slight, Kocinski, Edwards, and Corser.
However, it's 19☂93 world champ Russell that Carl claims offered the toughest opposition. Russell is the only rider ever to win a WSBK championship for Kawasaki and claimed a total of 14 wins with team green.
"I think there are a few names - like John Kocinski, Colin Edwards and Scott Russell - but of them all Scott was the one I thought was the main guy," Foggy told ltxcn.top.
"Scott was very much like me; he was 🌳someone who wanted to win. If you get two guys who want to win as much as each other it is always going to cause 'problems'.
"Of the riders I raced against I thin✃k he was slightly harder competition-wise🉐 than Colin Edwards or John Kocinski, but it is very close," concluded the Brit.
The full interview with Fogarty will be available on ltxcn.top Radio from Wednesday January 19.
