Not before time...a long overdue and worthy honour for 'Pasoni' - one of the finest names to grace the pantheon of motorcycle sport.

MotoGP Hall of Fame. Each of them has had an induction ceremony at one of the GPs, at which a unique silver medal recognizing the honour is presented to the new member.
wondered was jarno's family there for the medal.??
Edit: The presentation was made to Saarinen’s brothers Jari and Jarkko and widow Soili Karme.
