World Championship Motorsports is an independent, privately owned
business, which was formed in 1992. The company specialises in Motorcycle
Racing at its most elite level, and has earned a reputation as the
top independent racing team in the World Motorcycling Championship.
The directors of the Company, Mr. Bob MacLean and Mr. Peter Clifford
share a common passion for motorcycling, each bringing to the WCM
partnership uniquely different business skills, expert knowledge
and an undying passion for the fastest sport on two wheels.
The business of WCM is based in Austria and is managed by Mr. Peter
Clifford. Mr. Clifford expertise in mechanical engineering coupled
with his years of experience as a journalist with the worlds leading
technical journals complements Mr. Maclean’s astute business
skills and venture capital successes.
Under the guidance of this British/American duo, World Champion
Motorsports has grown over its ten year history, from a small independent
team of 5 people to full factory backed racing force with a team
of 25 members. Initially the business was based in Anemasse, France
and relocated to Austria to meet the needs of one of companies’
business investors.
WCM has equity in the World Championship – the MotoGP and
as such, own one of the rare entry positions on the Moto GP grid.
In 2002, WCM entered into a partnership arrangement for five years
with the MotoGP organising body, DORNA. This entitled WCM the exclusive
right to field 2 riders in the Moto GP World Championship. Only
5 such independent partnerships exist.
WCM is committed to the success of the MotoGP and to advancing
the technology of the machinery and as such has been an integral
part of the worldwide growth
