"La Aprilia está funcionando bien y él está enchufado". Así habla Mela Chércoles sobre Raúl Fernández, el piloto español de automovilismo que conquistó el GP de Gran Bretaña este pasado fin de semana. Es, en realidad, un perfecto resumen del momento de forma que vive el madrileño, de 25 años, que suma además tres podios consecutivos y que acaba de firmar su renovación con el equipo satélite de Aprilia, el Trackhouse. Con él charlamos en 'El Larguero' después de esa importante victoria.

MotoGP's Chief Sporting Officer Carlos Ezpeleta and Guenther Steiner, the new CEO and Co-Owner of the Tech3 MotoGP team, join David Cushnan to discuss how the world's leading motorcycling series in entering its new era, following F1 owner Liberty Media's acquisition last year. Ezpeleta explains how the changes made so far, some more visible than others, are designed to supercharge the championship's popularity and revenues, and how the new US influence on the series is beginning to manifest itself. Speaking in London before last Sunday's British round of the championship, the 12th of 22 scheduled races this year, he and Steiner also reflect on the painstaking governance work, which resulted in a fresh commercial framework binding the teams - including manufacturers Ducati, Honda, Yamaha, Aprilia and KTM - to the series and world motorcycling governing body the FIM until 2031, and how to build up the profile of the sport's superstars in markets beyond the current heartlands of Spain and Italy. And Steiner, who led the Haas F1 team from 2016 to 2024 and became the breakout star of Drive to Survive, explains why investors including IKON Capital and David Blitzer's Bolt Ventures paid $50 million to invest in the independent Tech3 MotoGP team, and how his experience of F1 is helping Ezpeleta chart a path forward under new ownership.----- The Leaders Week London agenda is here.

Raul Fernandez ha dominato il GP con grandissima autorevolezza. In testa fin dalla prima curva, sembrava che lo spagnolo volesse imporre un ritmo difficile da sostenere fino alla bandiera a scacchi. Invece è stato bravissimo ed ha chiuso senza problemi in vetta battendo la coppia Aprilia ufficiale con Martìn secondo su Bezzecchi. Da applausi la prova di Marco, reduce dalla frattura alla clavicola ed in grado di conquistare due podi. Alex Marquez di nuovo ai piedi del podio, davanti a Pedro Acosta e Fabio Di Giannantonio, che nel finale ha quasi battuto il pilota KTM. Marc Marquez chiude in settima posizione un GP vissuto tutto in difesa, con Binder, Marini e Moreira a completare la top ten. Caduto Ai Ogura, che perde la chance di restare vicinissimo alla vetta della classifica, mentre Pecco Bagnaia è caduto mentre era in netta difficoltà sul fondo della classifica.

Weekend di pausa sia per la MXGP che per il motocross USA. Indi per cui abbiamo deciso, io e Saverio, i vostri amici della direttona del lunedì sera, di lasciare spazio a voi e riempirci di domande che troveranno risposta proprio nella live di questa sera. Vi aspettiamo quindi, come sempre, anche per farcele direttamente all'interno della trasmissione attraverso la sezione commenti. Quindi preparate le domande e non fate i timidi! In realtà, però, non è che quello appena passato sia stato proprio un weekend a motori totalmente spenti. A Mol è andata in scena la grande classica che ha visto in pista tutti i migliori nomi del campionato MXGP e MX2, con un Herlings straordinario e un Sacha Coenen che sembra finalmente essere tornato quello di qualche settimana fa, grazie alla vittoria in MX2. E sì, anche Tony è sceso in pista: il nostro Cairoli ha corso proprio con la Desmo250 MX. È poi calato il sipario sul Mondiale EnduroGP, con tre titoli assegnati proprio durante l'ultima giornata. E, come spesso accade quando si parla di enduro, c'è tantissima Italia. Andrea Verona conquista il nono titolo mondiale in carriera, battendo nella classe E2 Zach Pichon per appena sei secondi. Nella E3, invece, la battaglia tra i due mastini Brad Freeman e Steve Holcombe dà ragione a quest'ultimo, che si mette in saccoccia il decimo titolo mondiale. E tra i giovanissimi c'è ancora tanta Italia: Alberto Elgari conquista il titolo EJ, mentre Manuel Scardina si laurea campione EY. Entrambi in sella alle TM del team di Jarno Boano, che avrà sicuramente di che gioire. Insomma, di cose da raccontare ce ne sono parecchie anche in un weekend di pausa. Vi aspettiamo questa sera alle 20:30, come ogni lunedì.

Jorge Martín llegó al Reino Unido con 14 puntos de ventaja y se va con un colchón de 31. Marc Márquez llegó a 14 puntos de la cabeza y se va de la pista de Silverstone con un déficit de 40 puntos… Hablamos de esto y más en el nuevo episodio de Diálogos Sobre Ruedas con Diego Lacave y Máximo Sant.
La descente aux enfers de Bezzecchi a commencé à partir du Mugello : baisse de performance, altercation avec un commissaire, blessures suivi d'une période difficile pendant la trêve estivale pour se remettre des précédentes semaines. Rien ne laissait présager un épisode noir en début de saison, tout comme un retour flamboyant à Silverstone malgré la douleur. Faut-il à nouveau compter sur lui dans la lutte pour le titre ? Et au contraire s'inquiéter pour Marquez ?Fraîchement prolongé pour deux saisons supplémentaires, Raul Fernandez a remercié de la meilleure des manières Trackhouse en décrochant sa deuxième victoire en MotoGP. Est-il un sérieux outsider ? Du côté de Quartararo et Bagnaia c'est la soupe à la grimace… Comment sortir de ce cercle négatif ?

12 different winners at Silverstone and the stretch continues. Four different Aprilia winners and the stretch continues. Adam, David and Neil get on the mics…and the stretch continues. Winners/Losers, Italian dominance, controversy, resurgences and more.
Some things are just meant to be together. You know: peanut butter and chocolate. Salt and pepper. Silverstone and Aprilia. Yes, Assen and Phillip Island are nice. But bring these bikes to Silverstone, and their aero really starts making the difference. The result? A clear domination, where in one historic weekend the Italian manufacturer managed to lock down the grid's front row, take all three top places during the sprint and then doing the same during the main race in a pretty historic victory. The result? Three of Aprilia's four bikes are holding steady in the top three positions of the tournament. So congratulations on that - but are these bikes getting a little too good for sportsmanship? We're not in Formula 1-land just yet, but Peter's feeling a little spooked. When does a briliant design become a danger to the game? That might sound grim, but luckily there's still the factor of the riders themselves and what they bring to play. Good thing Mat and Peter got some thoughts on those, too! So come join us as we discuss Silverstone. Cheers! ---Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

L'Aprilia firma una storica tripletta nella Sprint di Silverstone, monopolizzandoi tre gradini del podio. A conquistare la vittoria è Jorge Martin, impeccabile dal primo all'ultimo giro, davanti al sorprendente Ai Ogura e a uno straordinario Marco Bezzecchi, autore di una grande rimonta. Martin prende subito il comando della gara allo spegnersi del semaforo e impone un ritmo che nessuno riesce a sostenere. Alle sue spalle Ogura conferma ancora una volta il suo eccezionale stato di forma, mantenendo la seconda posizione senza commettere errori, mentre Bezzecchi recupera terreno giro dopo giro fino a completare una giornata perfetta per la Casa di Noale. Le Ducati, invece, partono bene ma si spengono progressivamente con il passare dei giri. Fabio Di Giannantonio e Marc Marquez occupano inizialmente il terzo e il quarto posto, salvo poi perdere competitività nella seconda parte della Sprint. Di Giannantonio limita i danni chiudendo quinto, mentre Marquez crolla fino al nono posto, conquistando l'ultimo punto disponibile dopo aver resistito agli attacchi del rookie Diogo Moreira. Il miglior pilota Ducati al traguardo è così Alex Marquez, quarto dopo una gara regolare, incapace però di inserirsi nella lotta per il podio. Il successo di Aprilia che conferma la competitività della RS-GP, particolarmente efficace nella gestione della gomma posteriore, aspetto che ha permesso ai piloti Aprilia di mantenere un ritmo elevato fino alla bandiera a scacchi. Silverstone rilancia così le ambizioni iridate di Martin e conferma Aprilia come la moto di riferimento su uno dei circuiti più impegnativi del calendario.Tutto qui? No, c'è dell'altro: ne parlano Paolo, Matteo e Carlo che termina la Live con una barzelletta strepitosa!
Raúl Fernández lució la segunda estrella en el circuito de Silverstone con una victoria inapelable, redimiéndose de su error en el sprint. Jorge Martín sumó un valioso segundo puesto con el que refuerza su liderato y Marco Bezzecchi logró otro heroico podio este domingo. Gran Premio arrollador de Aprilia, sumando de triplete en triplete, y que deja dudas en Ducati y en Marc Márquez que firmó un fin de semana gris.
Raul Fernandez domina il Gran Premio di Silverstone e dopo la caduta di ieri nella Sprint vince il dodicesimo appuntamento stagionale del Mondiale MotoGP. Lo spagnolo del team Trackhouse, dopo essersi preso la prima posizione con un'ottima partenza, ha tenuto un ritmo impressionante andando in fuga fin dai primi giri e resistendo nel finale al rientro degli inseguitori.
Sábado de gloria para Jorge Martín en Silverstone, que se hizo con la pole de récord y con una nueva victoria al sprint, que dominó de inicio a fin. El líder de MotoGP encabezó el triplete de Aprilia en el podio, en un sprint condicionado por la fulminante degradación del neumático blando trasero. Lo padeció especialmente Marc Márquez, que acabó en las lonas, siendo el más lento en las últimas vueltas y salvando 1 punto in extremis.
El Mundial de MotoGP ha vuelto tras el parón veraniego con el dominio total de las Aprilia, que han liderado la primera jornada de entrenamientos en el GP de Gran Bretaña. Mención especial para Marco Bezzecchi, que ha pulverizado el récord absoluto en Silverstone, después de fracturarse la clavícula en la pasada cita. Se le ha visto tocado físicamente al italiano y habrá que ver si no se le hace demasiado largo este fin de semana. Marc Márquez y las Ducati han arrancado en un segundo escalón, pero no le preocupa al de Cervera en un gran premio que considera de supervivencia.

Le parole di Pernat sul clima in Aprilia sono state nette e sorprendenti. Le ha dette davvero e in quei termini? Oggi bisogna pesare attentamente ogni parola, troppo facile finire dentro interminabili vortici di speculazioni…
Lancia es una de las marcas más admiradas de la historia del automóvil. Su nombre está asociado a la innovación técnica, al lujo refinado y a algunos de los mayores éxitos jamás conseguidos en el mundo de los rallyes. Sin embargo, también protagoniza una de las caídas más sorprendentes de toda la industria. En este vídeo repasamos la increíble historia de una marca que nació como un auténtico laboratorio de ingeniería. Fundada en 1906 por Vincenzo Lancia, la compañía destacó desde el principio por desarrollar soluciones técnicas revolucionarias. Modelos como el Theta, el Lambda o el Aprilia incorporaron avances que estaban décadas por delante de sus competidores. Tras la muerte de Vincenzo, su hijo Gianni Lancia impulsó la entrada de la marca en la competición. Aquella decisión dio lugar a algunos de los automóviles más importantes de todos los tiempos, entre ellos el espectacular Lancia Aurelia, pionero por utilizar el primer motor V6 fabricado en serie y una avanzada arquitectura transaxle. Pero la ambición deportiva tuvo un coste enorme. Los programas de competición, especialmente en Fórmula 1, generaron gastos imposibles de asumir para una empresa de tamaño relativamente pequeño. Finalmente, en 1955, la familia Lancia perdió el control de la compañía. Durante los años sesenta la marca siguió produciendo automóviles extraordinarios, pero arrastraba un problema estructural: su obsesión por la ingeniería hacía que fabricar cada coche resultara demasiado caro. La rentabilidad era prácticamente inexistente y, en 1969, Fiat terminó adquiriendo la empresa. Bajo el paraguas financiero de Fiat llegaron algunos de los mayores éxitos deportivos de la historia. El Stratos revolucionó los rallyes, el 037 consiguió derrotar a los Audi Quattro de tracción total y el Delta Integrale encadenó seis títulos mundiales consecutivos de constructores, una hazaña que sigue siendo irrepetible. Sin embargo, mientras los éxitos deportivos se acumulaban, la reputación comercial de la marca sufría un duro golpe. El caso del Lancia Beta y los graves problemas de corrosión provocados por el uso de acero de baja calidad dañaron profundamente la imagen de excelencia que había construido durante décadas. La situación empeoró todavía más cuando Fiat adquirió Alfa Romeo. Para evitar la competencia interna, el grupo decidió reservar la imagen deportiva para Alfa y transformar Lancia en una marca orientada exclusivamente al lujo y al confort. Aquella decisión supuso una ruptura total con la identidad que había convertido a Lancia en una leyenda. Durante los años noventa y los primeros años del siglo XXI la marca fue perdiendo relevancia internacional. Sus modelos compartían cada vez más elementos con otros vehículos del grupo y dejaron de destacar por la innovación que había definido su historia. La humillación definitiva llegó tras la integración de Chrysler en el grupo Fiat. Modelos estadounidenses como el Chrysler 300 o el Grand Voyager fueron comercializados en Europa con emblemas de Lancia, una estrategia que muchos aficionados consideraron una traición al legado de la marca. En la actualidad, Lancia intenta reconstruir su futuro dentro de Stellantis mediante nuevos modelos electrificados y una imagen inspirada en su glorioso pasado. Sin embargo, la gran pregunta sigue siendo la misma: ¿es posible recuperar el espíritu de una marca que durante décadas fue sinónimo de innovación, pasión y excelencia técnica? En este vídeo analizamos la trayectoria completa de Lancia, desde sus revolucionarios comienzos hasta convertirse en uno de los casos más llamativos de pérdida de identidad dentro de la industria del automóvil.

Carlo, Paolo, Andrea, Matteo e con il contributo di Marco da Goodwood, ci raccontano una domenica piena di motori che manda in vacanza la MotoGP fino ai primi di agosto quando tornerà in pista a Silverstone.Intanto ecco come il Decano commenta il successo di Marc Marquez al Sachsenring:Sta emergendo dalle profondità della classifica di inizio campionato Marc Marquez, l'unico vero squalo della MotoGP. Da meno 102 si è portato a -18 da Jorge Martin, con solo Ai Ogura a -14 a separare i due.E' il giapponese la vera sorpresa della prima metà di campionato, visto che era dal 2002 - Tohru Ukawa - che un figlio del sol levante non occupava questa posizione. E ci immaginiamo che Yamaha, la casa per la quale correrà il prossimo anno, sia soddisfatta della scelta.E' all'orizzonte un cambio di gerarchie in questa MotoGP che attende ancora la rivoluzione di Liberty Media. Ogura, Raul Fernandez e ovviamente Pedro Acosta, quarto al Sachsenring, sono l'onda che si sposta in alto sotto la spinta del Grande Bianco che è ancora il re degli oceani…scusate, delle piste.LEGGETE IL SEGUITO QUI

Jeremy Coon sells around 1,200 pre-owned motorcycles a year out of a single store in Wildwood, Florida. No new franchises. No floor plan. No dealer fees. Just a used-bike machine he built from the ground up starting at 23 years old.In 2026 he took over a second location in Fort Myers and tripled the store's sales in his first 120 days. He went from 19 units a month to 70.This is one of the most honest, tactical conversations we have had on the show. Jeremy does not hold back. He walks through how he sources at volume, how he prices to turn, why he refuses to charge dealer fees, and what actually changes when you go from one store to two.If you sell used, want to sell more used, or are thinking about opening a second store, this one is a roadmap.What we cover:Why pre-owned is a full-time job with no truck dropping off new bikes every weekHow Jeremy sources 1,200-plus bikes a year and why trades and street buys beat the auctionThe stat that says it all: 1,200 bikes sold last year, only 5 bought from the auction, about 30 sent to itWhy chasing the auction is where a lot of dealers go wrong on fees, freight, and bikes they never even rideBuying right: why he makes his money the day he buys the unitThe 20,000-mile rule his full-time buyer is not allowed to breakHow the market shifts under you: nobody wants the bike today that everybody wanted three years agoPricing to the real market and why NADA is always chasing behind the actual selling priceWhy a bike sitting 30 days is devaluing every single day and wasting your ad spendThe no dealer fees philosophy and why it is a marketing weapon when everyone around you piles on feesThe buy here pay here lever most dealers do not have, and the $1.5 million on the books bringing $30,000 a month in interestWe Sell Fun: how a real riding culture turns into a sales and marketing engineWhy customers drive two hours and pay full price to buy from a store that feels like familyThe blueprint approach to building a team that stays 16 to 19 yearsThe honest story of acquiring a 25-year-old dealership and taking it from 19 to 70 bikes a monthGoing from pure pre-owned to running Piaggio new-unit franchises with Vespa, Aprilia, and Moto GuzziWhy watching your expenses and floor plan is the number one thing that keeps a used operation profitableHis honest advice for any dealer thinking about opening a second storeWatch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@dealershipfixitConnect with Jeremy Coon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremy-coon-b5107a289/Lucky U Cycles: https://luckyucycles.comConnect with Jacob: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-b-berry/Follow the Fixit Online: https://linktr.ee/dealershipfixitMotoHunt for Dealers: https://dealers.motohunt.com

Dre Harrison, Lewis Duncan and Pete McLaren sit down to review the Dutch Grand Prix at the Catherdral of Speed at Assen. Japan finally gets to celebrate its first new winner since Makoto Tamada in 2004 as Ai Ogura maximised the second half of the race to comfortably blow past Raul Fernandez and Jorge Martin enroute to victory. With Ai just 25 points behind Martin, is the former Moto2 Champion a genuine title contender?There were other flashpoints in the title fight, as Marco Bezzecchi missed out on another huge opportunity, only managing fourth in the Sprint Race and crashing early on in the Grand Prix, which even Aprilia couldn't defend. With Marc Marquez struggling to just sixth and seventh place across the weekend and losing no ground in the title fight, does Bez have the mental strength to fight for the title? Also discussed, the other contenders in the title fight, and whether KTM needs to be parked for Pedro Acosta's unreliable bike? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
E' durata 10 Gran Premi, quasi, la leadership di Marco Bezzecchi in MotoGP. Una caduta ad alta velocità, per fortuna senza conseguenze, nel corso del secondo giro lo ha detronizzato a favore del suo più diretto inseguitore, il compagno di squadra Jorge Martin, che ha chiuso in terza posizione.Non è stata una vittoria a regalare il primato all'ex iridato: lo spagnolo è arrivato solo terzo, alle spalle della coppia Trackhouse, Ai Ogura e Raul Fernandez, con il giapponese autore del sorpasso deciso a sette giri dalla conclusione del Gran Premio.Ogura sullo orme di Tamada, Motegi 2004.Un successo, quello di Ai, che riporta un giapponese sul gradino più alto del podio: non accadeva dal GP del Giappone,a. Motegi, nel 2004.Un altro trionfo per Aprilia che non solo è in testa al mondiale piloti, ma anche a quello marche con 22 punti di vantaggio sulla Ducati, il cui migliore interprete ad Assen è stato Fabio di Giannantonio. Il romano è stato autore di una bella rincorsa e di una lotta decisa con Marc Marquez, inclusa una collisione all'ultima curva con il 9 volte iridato che gli è costata un long lap che non gli ha però impedito di chiudere ai piedi del podio.Continua a leggere QUI.

Oh Assen. Adam, David and Neil go through the main talking points from round ten of 2026 MotoGP and the Grand Prix of the Netherlands: Ogura, Aprilia, Bezz, Winners and Losers & more. Patreons! Get YOUR questions in for our Debrief show this week.
Today's race was brought to you by the letter 'A'. That's 'A', like in 'Assen', 'Aprilia', 'Ai' and, of course: "Aaaaaaaaaargh, why is there so much sharp gravel everywhere?"That gravel is especially nasty, as Peter assures us that the stones here are particularly unfriendly. And that's not even getting into those killer curbs, and the sharp corners that become extra tricky in the sweltering heat. Today we got to see the oldest track in MotoGP deliver all those nasty surprises and ultra speedy passages. It's the kind of track that is perfectly suited to Aprilia's current killer setup, bringing us the first Japanese winner in over two decades in Ai Ogura and shaking up the tournament even further. It's an awesome performance by a young rider who's cool as a cucumber, raising the question what, exactly, is causing Moto2's former golden boy to step up and deliver in these last few races. Mat and Peter have their theories, but whatever it is: keep it coming! And speaking of winners, according to Mat the number of potential champions this season is now up to a humble six. Looks like there's no such thing as a sure bet this year...Okay, that's enough of my rambling. Let's go! ---Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

Devi pensare ad un colpo solo. E' tutto lì. One shot. La precisione. L'attesa. La scelta del momento. Se ci pensate in ogni gara c'è un punto di svolta. E l'occasione molto spesso non la dà il talento da solo. Ricordate la frase ‘è solo un punto'. Federer la pronunciò spiegando che in carriera aveva vinto quasi l'80% delle partite, ma solo il 54% dei punti giocati. In altre parole, anche i più grandi perdono quasi un punto su due. La differenza è che non si lasciano condizionare dall'errore precedente. O dalle cadute. O dai malanni."I migliori del mondo non sono i migliori perché vincono ogni punto. Lo sono perché sanno che perderanno ancora e ancora, e hanno imparato a gestirlo”, la famosa considerazione del tennista svizzero.Vi fa venire in mente qualcosa? A noi sembra la filosofia di Marquez. Ma non la filosofia di sempre: quella che ha scelto di seguire da quando, dopo il 2020, una incredibile successione di incidenti gli ha tolto parte di quella capacità che aveva di sovvertire i limiti della fisica.Leggete il seguito QUI ed ascoltate la puntata dell'ultima, incredibile, vittoria di Marquez e della squalifica di Bezzecchi, la politica Aprilia dietro ad alcune decisioni del team, commetate da Carletto, Marco e il Decano.
MotoGP World Champion Jorge Martin sits down with Gypsy Tales for Chapter 406 and one of the most raw and wide ranging conversations of the Euro Trip. From a crash that nearly took his life to the pressure of fighting for a MotoGP World Championship, Jorge opens up like never before.Jorge relives the terrifying Qatar crash that left him with a punctured lung and multiple injuries, revealing how the experience changed his perspective on life forever. He opens up about the championship battle with Pecco Bagnaia, their friendship that dates back to Moto3, and the mind games that unfolded during one of the closest title fights in MotoGP history.The conversation also dives deep into the technical side of the sport. Jorge explains just how extreme modern MotoGP bikes have become, why riders rarely use their machines at full potential, and what surprised him most about moving from Ducati to Aprilia. He also shares his passion for American supercross and motocross, the riders he grew up watching, and why he remains one of the biggest fans of the sport.0:00 Intro: who is Jorge Martín3:48 Checking himself out of hospital to be here4:49 Kenny Roczen & finding the podcast6:42 Your first world title & the weight of pressure8:47 Hunter vs Kenny: you cant beat the universe10:06 Why he loves Supercross & Motocross14:50 His hero: James Stewart16:12 AG1 Ad17:13 Motocross as MotoGP training & riding with Jack Miller23:50 Why a MotoGP bike destroys your body28:42 360 km/h & setting up the fastest bikes ever33:00 Switching from Ducati to Aprilia37:22 The jump to MotoGP & trusting your crew40:06 Self-doubt, process over results & dealing with hate47:07 Keeping a small circle49:51 Growing up by the track, meeting Rossi & the hunger to win56:46 Almost quitting & the family sacrifice1:03:44 Sota Fuel Ad1:04:23 Moto3 to MotoGP: moving to Andorra at 171:07:50 The mental switch & riding for joy again1:13:56 Ducati, Bastianini & Marquez taking the seat1:20:56 Battling Pecco & winning a title on a private team1:25:28 Talent vs results & the Pramac story1:28:46 Signing with Aprilia & the brutal start1:32:31 Qatar: the crash that nearly killed him1:34:40 I called Maria to say goodbye1:36:11 How nearly dying changed his outlook1:38:53 Recovery & the noise about leaving Aprilia1:42:31 Maturing fast & keeping the kid alive1:46:27 Why MotoGP riders cant train every day1:48:43 Getting back to racing in 20251:50:49 Five surgeries, 25 broken bones1:53:23 Brunt Workwear Ad1:55:01 Into 2026: back in the title hunt1:57:31 Emotional podiums & the people who carried him2:00:36 The craziest, most competitive MotoGP season2:05:02 2027 rules: the year of the Japanese2:08:09 Whats wrong with the show & if Jorge wrote the rules2:12:15 The aero, and Ducati vs Aprilia2:17:20 How much better can the Aprilia get?2:20:21 His best wins: Le Mans & Misano2:22:08 Racing on fentanyl: the hospital story2:25:33 Liberty Media buys MotoGP2:28:08 Outdoor motocross 2026 predictionsSubscribe for more conversations with the biggest names in MotoGP, motocross, supercross, and action sports.
Sometimes we get by with a little help from our friends. Case in point: Marc Marquez, taking first place with the help of Martin and Bezzecchi. The latter's help was especially unconventional, as the Bez managed to get himself suspended for a race when he decided to slap a race official. And no matter what you say, you just can't go around slapping stewards or mauling marshals. It's a slip-up from the world's fastest hippy - or, to quote Mat: "The Red Mist can be a terrible thing!"And if you're going to miss out on a track, don't let it be Brno! Your hosts have to admit to having a little bit of a crush on the Czech track, with those beautiful sharp S-corners. And a good race like this? Well, it definitely helps!So come join us as Peter reveals why he's a fan of a very specific front tire and we wonder whether Aprilia suffers from a curse on their riders. Oh, and there's some interesting hints that seem to have something to do with Ohlins? Cheers! ---Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

La vittoria di Bagnaia, o meglio: il ritorno alla vittoria di Pecco ha fatto parlare, così come il magnifico secondo posto di Ogura ed il terzo di Marc Marquez. Ma il dopo gara è stato tutto per la soepsnione - meglio, la squalifica - di Marco Bezzecchi, reo dopo esser caduto di aver preso a schiaffi un commissario mentre questi tentava, magari maldestramente, di rialzare la sua Aprilia.La notizia è arrivata in tarda serata, ce la ha data Matteo, assentatosi brevemente dalla Live proprio quando la notizia ha raggiunto la sala stampa.Per il resto: gara noiosa, buona corsa, ma non quanto ce la si aspettava, da Di Giannantonio e Martin, finiti nell'ordine. Il resto? Tutti lontani anni luce.Nel Gran Premio, dunque, non ci sarà Bezzecchi, mentre il compagno di squadra, Martin, dovrà scontare due long lap.

It's a party at Aprilia and occasion for some very cross glares over at Ducati this Sunday at Mugello. Good race? You bet! So let's go over to Italy, and see what caught the eye of our hosts Mat and......wait, I'm getting word that Peter is still on a secret mission somewhere? Oh dear. Have we got anyone else on the ground, then? Nope, nobody but Mat and his incredible social skills! So there he goes, conjuring up a co-host out of thin air for this weekend!

Oh dear, what a weekend! For want of a screw, the race was lost. Or, maybe I should say: for want of a proper screw. Yes, I'm talking about Marc Marquez, him having a screw loose leading to a rather painful absence for the man who'd absolutely shattered the lap record at Les Mans on Saturday. And it's bad news for Ducati, too, as Alex took a tumble within the first rounds today and left the door wide open for Aprilia to, once again, establish dominance. It looks like the greatest contest this year will be an in-house affair for the Bezz and his teammate Martin. Yes, it's the Axe Murderer versus the Mad Philosopher. Here's to many more battles to come! So yeah: bad news for Ducati. But maybe not as bad as you'd think. Why? Well, I could tell you that but I won't. Not because I don't like you, dear reader, but because we've got Mat and Peter ready to talk about it. So let's just wrap this up and hit play, alright?Cheers! ---Want more?
