Peter Clifford is the director of rider development and media for the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup. Or, as he calls himself, the “Headmaster.” Prior to being the man in charge of the Rookies Cup, Clifford was a motojournalist who covered MotoGP before it was called MotoGP. He was also the manager for Bob MacLean’s World Championship Motorsports (WCM) team that fielded such racers as Simon Crafar and John Hopkins. We caught up with Clifford at the Red Bull Grand Prix of The Americas in Austin, Texas, where we talked about that, as well as MotoAmerica’s new Parts Unlimited Talent Cup By Motul, and what the riders who get invited to the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup tryouts can expect.
