Every American 500 and MotoGP champion in history were together yesterday at Laguna Seca. Italian journalist Paolo Sclara, who covered each of them in his career, jumped into the photo "to give it some value".

Dorna and Laguna Seca Raceway held a very nice press conference yestreday recognizing the championships of every American who has won the 500 and MotoGP world championship since King Kenny Roberts in 1978.

It was amazing to see Kenny Roberts, Freddie Spencer, Eddie Lawson, Wayne Rainey, Kevin Schwantz, Kenny Roberts Junior and Nicky Hayden on one stage together.

It was also amazing to see old rivals Roberts and Spencer share a few words together. Very few.

Full transcript of the press conference coming soon.
