Can't think of John without that last race at Brands Hatch, I was with you at every corner twitching like a fool on my sofa. Thanks for the great memories John. Regards Frank From UK

He just went out there to show us the lap around COTA, and already take extra energy to do that. Imagine, there is 22 fastest rider fight every lap for the point for 20 laps, how's the physique after the race? And imagine, there is one guy that won 7 times in this freakin circuit! Like what the heck?
Fun Hopper! 🏍💨😜😃 But that finish line is too close to the last turn. That removes a last chance for someone who is leading into the last corner but pushed wide by a desperate or unfair lunge. 🤷♂️
You might see him if the cameras are over in American Racing Team’s garage. He is involved with the sport as a riding coach for Joe Roberts (Moto2). I forget which race I caught a glimpse of him, but it was recent.
Good to see hopper on a bike again!
Yeah
I miss this long standing wheelies 🔥
"Haaaaaaard on the brakes."
My man sounds like a sargeant leading with a battlecry
John, you’re awesome. My dad and I LOVED this video!
0:49 Wow, you could barely hear him pronounce the ™, glad they added it to the captions
good one
Much as I enjoy Simon’s laps. This definitely had an extra wow factor. Such a character
And I didn’t realise COTA had so many ‘hairpins’
Simon had travel issues so he couldn't get to Austin this year
@@Lappali it appears Dorna doesn't pay enough so the cost was the issue. 😢
@@willrankin8833 interesting
I imagined it would be because of a flight delay
HOPPER!
Man it's been really a while since the last time he rode a bike at a circuit, one of underrated riders that had raced in MotoGP.
On The attack Onboard😮😮😢😅😂🎉😊
Thanks man, John Hopkins!!
His body is knackered but he still has the passion. Such a nice guy too.
Awesome love to see Johnny
Hell yeah, Johnny boy!
Viva MotoGp

.006 of a second. Awesome race!!!! Crazy thing to see a few years later, Tommy Hill had his own race team in the series, and guess who was his rider!?
JOHN HOPKINS!!! Can't believe you still able to ride a steel horse 🤩🤩
I do a lot of track days and you’d be amazed at how many guys there are in their 70s that absolutely smoke the younger guys, it’s so fun to watch
He should do more of these
Who doesn't like Hopper 21, can feel his enthusiasm throught the camera an mic. 👍
John Hopkins is back hell yeah
John, we did the 2024 COTA "Parade Laps". Even riding slow the track is AWESOME!! Thanks for a great ride-along video.
The first and second corners looked good. Then third fourth and fifth and Hard on the Brakes. ✌Thanks John Hopkins.
Legend
You're a star John Hopkins ....I enjoyed watching you race.
Such an awesome dude, great to see you hoonin' man.... cheers to you 🤟🎶

Good to see Hopper back on a bike.
I'd love it if they did this with John at every track
Harrrrrrrrrddd on brakes 🦅🦅🦅
Thank you for this clip ❤,might c u soon back in Scotland at knockhill again ❤❤
Hargggggggdddd on the breaks!!!
Incredible John Hopkins was a fantastic funambolik MotoGP driver…i very miss him 🥲…
Cool. Nice. Serious question - where the heck does one find the (Simon Crafar) lap previews on the motogp website? Are they only published on youtube?
Yep only on RUclips which is disappointing.
Love it!
Excellent Hopper!
Looks like Simon has some competition😊........maybe there should be a commentators class, 2 timed laps at every track 👍
Really amazing
Great Video! Beautiful Track!
BMW never knew their bike’s nickname was “this thing” 😂
John il pazzo è tornato 😊
Glad to see Hopper on a motorcycle again ..was a big fan of him during his GP days especially when he was at suzuki... injuries ruined his career...
Missed this guy. But at least he’s back someway somehow.
Hey.... let Casey do the philip island !!!!!
Agree! Also, why not Dani or Jorge in One of the Spanish GPs?
Yeah... American Cowboy... Hopper is back.
Gotta say, its a great track, heard it's got a new surface finally
🐝🏁 MotoGP 👍

Nice! 👍👍😘
This what i'm talking about. Looks better in 60fps.

Where is Simon??? 🙄🙄🙄
There's a university named John Hopkins!
Where is Simon Crafar!?
Not there
Travel problems apparently so not in Austin
What bike is that?
S1000rr
M1000RR
?Bmw?
Yeah BMW, its a sponser deal, M power safety car, M power motorcycle for the celebrity lap, M power signs everywhere.
What bike is that ? Just curious.
S1000RR
This was in Austin right?
Yes.
Fun Hopper! 🏍💨😜😃

Again ... Awesome video... ruined with 1080p trash.... It's advertising gopro....why not in 5.7k?
"And these MotoGP boys can do it a lot faster than I can now!"
Yeah, because you're driving a street bike, not a racing bike.
Unless its the Isle of Man and Peter Hickman's riding it 😉
No Simon again✌🏻
Where is nikita mirzani.??
Percuma aku masih susah makan diteror lagi sama keluarga
dan saudara apalagi bos ku
Bnyk omong wkwk
John Hopkins is Nikita Mirzani's ex boyfriend
Sa ae Nikita Mirzani 😅
muy lento
Nice lap. But I miss Simon.
Take the helmet off , wanna see how he looks these days ole man now

one of the worst tracks
