  • Title fight tide turns + Hamilton to MotoGP?
    Jul 1 2024
    With Pecco Bagnaia now right on Jorge Martin's tail in the MotoGP championship fight and the shadow of both Martin and Pramac's Ducati exits hanging over the rest of the season, is the 2024 title battle only going one way? That's what Simon Patterson, guest pundit Megan White and Matt Beer debate on the Dutch TT episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast - with a few interjections from Valentin Khorounzhiy from somewhere in the Styrian hills. They also discuss the huge news of Lewis Hamilton's potential arrival in MotoGP as a team owner and Marc Marquez's weird weekend - which included the return of tyre pressure penalties. That penalty system is one of many topics we're quizzed about by The Race Members' Club via Patreon as part of our new MotoGP coverage strand there.

  • Has Aprilia struck 2025 line-up gold?
    Jun 25 2024
    After Ducati and KTM, it's now Aprilia that can claim it's put together a 2025 MotoGP superteam after securing Marco Bezzecchi alongside Jorge Martin in its all-new factory line-up. But as Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer debate on The Race MotoGP Podcast, while signing the second and third placed riders from the 2023 world championship looks great on paper, there are definite question marks around whether this is all going to work. We also examine all the repercussions elsewhere in the field, from what happens at Aprilia satellite team Trackhouse - whose riders get very different responses from Aprilia boss Massimo Rivola - to whether the exodus of strong satellite riders from Ducati marks a significant end of an era and also why on earth it seems Joan Mir might want to prolong his Honda stint. And the World Superbike Championship has entered the MotoGP rider market in earnest too. Are we going to see Toprak Razgatlioglu or even Andrea Iannone on the 2025 MotoGP grid? And if so, where and how would it go? We give our takes on all of that too.

  • Has KTM created a superteam or a headache?
    Jun 14 2024
    It was KTM's turn to rock the MotoGP rider market this week as it announced current Ducati and Aprilia factory riders Enea Bastianini and Maverick Vinales would join its satellite team Tech3 Gas Gas for 2025. With Pedro Acosta and Brad Binder already set for the works squad, that gives KTM an extremely strong line-up to take on Ducati with next year. Or does it? Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy have very different views on how Vinales in particular will fare at KTM as they join Matt Beer to discuss it all on The Race MotoGP Podcast. What happens next for ousted KTM pair Jack Miller and Augusto Fernandez, and who Aprilia signs to replace Vinales are also hot topics. And we delve into everything that's happening around the rest of the Ducati line-up too, where it's not just riders moving around but teams too. Joan Mir's efforts to escape Honda and top Moto2 riders' hopes of reaching MotoGP for 2025 are assessed as well, and we also reveal what we'll be up to in the new MotoGP section on The Race Members' Club, which is now available on Patreon too.
