• £16,235 from the VIP Petronas Weekend
• £9,049 from the MotoGP™ Press Conference boards

All of the money raised will go to life-saving programmes in some of the poorest and most remote areas of Africa thanks to the work of Two Wheels’ charity partner, Riders for Health.

Two Wheels CEO Andrea Coleman said: “We are delighted with the efforts of the fundraising over the holiday period and it’s a fantastic amount of money to have raised at such an important time and we’re happy to be able to give something back to our loyal supporters.

“Last year was incredibly difficult for Two Wheels with the loss of the biggest day of fundraising gone after the cancellation of Day of Champions due to COVID-19 and we have been working hard to reduce the funding gap.

“We are eternally grateful for the support we receive from MotoGP™ and the fans who are always so incredibly generous. As a thank you we will give back a series of prizes to a random selection of those who donated money or won items in the auctions.”

Charity income for Two Wheels has taken a huge hit with the cancellation of the 2020 Day of Champions event that normally runs a day before the British MotoGP™ event at Silverstone. Due to the coronavirus pandemic the British MotoGP™ event was cancelled and with it, Day of Champions.

Two Wheels are the official charity of the FIM and MotoGP™ and with their support are able to run unique events and give motor racing fans access to exclusive experiences and unique moto-memorabilia. The projects supported mean that health workers can reach the most isolated people with the health care they so desperately need.
