I have also received indirect contributions from Hans-Hugo Boecker, Erhard Haspelmann and Roudy Grob.

We have used a small amount of material supplied by Didier Mahistre, and we understand that he may not be totally happy about this. His work was so well researched it would have been absurd not to use it, but we did already have the core details of the results in question. We have also received small amounts of information from a number of people not listed above. Thank you to everyone who has contributed any information, however small.

No thanks at all to Adam Haraszti, a MotoGP reporter for Hungarian television. Help he promised did not materialise and when we helped him no thanks or acknowledgement was received.
