Autographs of Kork Ballington
Hugh Neville "Kork" Ballington (born 10 April 1951) is a South African former professional motorcycle racer. He competed in the Grand Prix motorcycle racing world championships from 1976 to 1982, most prominently as a member of the Kawasaki factory racing team with whom he won four FIM road racing world championships. Ballington was inducted into the MotoGP Legends Hall of Fame in 2018.
Born in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia, Ballington's family emigrated to South Africa when he was young. He used his domestic production road racing experience as a springboard to gain entry into the British domestic racing competitions.
In 1976 he began competing in the world championships, taking his first podium position when he scored a second place result in the 250cc German Grand Prix held at the daunting, 14.2 miles (22.9 km) long Nürburgring racetrack, considered too dangerous for the Formula One championship. He followed this performance by winning the 1976 350cc Spanish Grand Prix held on the challenging Montjuïc circuit in Barcelona.
