I don\u2019t think the world wants one. Not for another 20 years at least,\u2019 so says Carl Fogarty. And he\u2019s right, in some respects. I think the world, racing fans at least, would love another Carl Fogarty, but modern sponsors are unlikely to give a character like him a chance now to break through now. They seem to want their riders to be seen, not heard, and Foggy never toed that party line.<\/p>\n<p>Fogarty was one of those fantastic characters who would happily say whatever was on his mind to whoever asked whether they carried a reporter\u2019s pen and pad or TV microphone. And making him even more rare was the fact he wasn\u2019t a gobshite trying to gain ink in lieu of skill. Fogarty could back up every slight, snipe and sarky comment with imperious talent. He was, to use the vernacular, a bad ass.<\/p>\n<p>Hugely talented, Foggy was never a master technician and didn\u2019t do much in the way of fitness training beyond riding a bicycle once a week or going out on a motocross bike twice a month. Still, it didn\u2019t make any difference.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19188\" title=\"Carl Fogarty on the TT start line, 2007 PICTURE BY STEPHEN DAVISON\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2464\" height=\"1632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty.jpg 2464w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-624x413.jpg 624w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-278x185.jpg 278w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-251x167.jpg 251w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-526x348.jpg 526w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-670x444.jpg 670w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty-572x378.jpg 572w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2464px) 100vw, 2464px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019d feel bad that I wasn\u2019t doing something so I\u2019d make myself go for a jog. The other guys were training like athletes. If I had to train like that to win races I\u2019d have gone and done something else. Luckily I didn\u2019t have to. I was so strong in my head I couldn\u2019t get beaten. If I got tired in a race I\u2019d think to myself \u201cGo faster so you can finish the race quicker and have a rest.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n<p>And he was good enough to ride around most problems the bike could throw at him. He didn\u2019t need a perfect set-up or the ideal tyre to win. He didn\u2019t win every world title he competed for, but a haul of four World Superbike titles is more than anyone else so far. Critics may also say he only won titles on Ducatis, and it\u2019s true, but he wasn\u2019t the only man riding them.<\/p>\n<p>Fogarty was playground-rude about everyone who came close to challenging him. He named his pet pigs after two of his rivals, and a cockroach he found in a hotel room was christened Colin, the namesake of the then upstart American racer Colin Edwards, and paraded in front of the press. It\u2019s hard to know if Foggy was being na\u00efve or a supreme tactician. Perhaps a bit of both, but his antics split opinions. And his character is still doing that now.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I\u2019m happy everyone has an opinion of me,\u2019 Foggy says. \u2018It makes me feel like I\u2019ve done something. I\u2019m outspoken, so you\u2019re always going to have people criticizing you or loving you for that.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d rather have one Fogarty than ten \u2018I\u2019d just like to thank [insert name of all sponsors here]\u2019 cookie cut, media-trained whelps.<\/p>\n<p>Fogarty had already had more success than most British riders by the time he signed to race for Ducati Corse in World Superbikes (WSB). He\u2019d won a World Endurance championship with Kawasaki, the world F1 TT title and triumphed at the Isle of Man.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Winning the TT meant as much as any world championship,\u2019 he says. \u2018I couldn\u2019t wait for the TT. I was brought up with it. My father raced there and I didn\u2019t miss a year from being one-year-old till I was 20. I used to cry on the ferry on the way home. As a rider I wanted to win it so bad. When I did the double in 1990 I knew I wanted to go on and achieve things on the short circuits.\u2019<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19191\" title=\"Fogarty on his way to winning the North West 200 in 1993 STEPHEN DAVISON\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1154\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-1024x738.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-624x450.jpg 624w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-278x200.jpg 278w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-526x379.jpg 526w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-615x444.jpg 615w, https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Fogarty_2-572x412.jpg 572w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>He returned to race at the island in 1992 and set the lap record, narrowly missing the win in a race that has recently been voted the greatest TT of all time, but by then he had moved on. 1992 was the year of his first WSB race win.<\/p>\n<p>While riders have always changed disciplines to find world success, like Kenny Roberts Sr, Lawson, Rainey and Hayden who all progressed from dirt track to superbikes and went on to become GP world championships, Fogarty was the last TT winner to succeed in world championship racing.<\/p>\n<p>At his height he took the WSB series from an also-ran niche championship to global importance. He also did for Ducati what Colin McRae did for Subaru.<\/p>\n<p>Fogarty, and the Ducati 916, elevated WSB in many countries around the world at a time when Mick Doohan\u2019s cold and calculated dominance in 500 GPs was turning off race fans in their droves.<\/p>\n<p>One year 15,000 went to Donington for the Motorcycle Grand Prix, while ten times as many packed into Brands Hatch to watch Foggy and the other British riders his success opened the doors for. Thousands of fans would ride to every race in Europe to watch King Carl and he won more WSB races than anyone else in the series\u2019 23-year history: 59 to Troy Bayliss\u2019s 52.<\/p>\n<p>He became Mr Superbike, and though he showed incredible talent during one-off wild card GP rides (normally disastrous no-win affairs for riders), sponsor politics kept slamming the door in his face. It\u2019s pointless to wonder \u2018what could\u2019ve been?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Fogarty was driven, but admits \u2018I didn\u2019t enjoy winning enough. I could be winning races and not be happy because something wasn\u2019t right. Winning became an obsession. Maybe if I had enjoyed it more I wouldn\u2019t have done what I did.\u2019<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/Honda.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-19193\" title=\"The early days.

It was the Malaysian oil giant\u2019s idea to build an exclusive sportsbike and win World Superbikes with the racing version. But they were up against Honda, Ducati and Suzuki. It wasn\u2019t going to happen, and now, five years after the project fizzled-out, another one of this scale or ambition is unlikely to ever be seen again.<\/p>\n<p>There are lots of reasons I love Carl Fogarty and another is he never left England for a tax haven. He rode with the flag of St George on his Dainese leathers and Shark helmet, and backed it up by staying in Lancashire and paying his taxes.<\/p>\n<p>Carl Fogarty, is a one-off, there has been no
