Imagina esta escena: son las tres de la mañana del 5 de julio de 1975. El calor del verano barcelonés es asfixiante, pero en la montaña de Montjuïc, el aire está cargado de una mezcla perfecta e inolvidable de aceite de ricino quemado y pinos mediterráneos. De repente, un aullido desgarra la noche; un faro amarillento corta la oscuridad y, a más de 200 km/h rozando el bordillo, aparece Salvador Cañellas sobre una imponente Ducati 900 SS. Así era la magia de las 24 Horas de Montjuïc, probablemente la historia de carreras más salvaje, pura y mítica jamás contada sobre dos ruedas. Los orígenes: Héroes de la posguerra La historia arranca en 1955, no con inmensos presupuestos ni grandes motorhomes, sino gracias a la maravillosa locura de los miembros de la Penya Motorista Barcelona. Ellos decidieron que las carreteras y jardines públicos que rodeaban los antiguos palacios de la Exposición de 1929 eran el lugar perfecto para ver quién aguantaba más sobre una moto. En aquella primera edición de tintes casi heroicos, Juan Soler Bultó y "Turuta" ganaron con una modesta Montesa Brío 90 de apenas 7 caballos y 70 kilos. Corrieron día y noche vestidos con chaquetas barbour y cascos tipo bol de ensalada, en un trazado donde no había vallas, solo pacas de paja frente a farolas de hierro macizo. Tras casi 2.000 kilómetros de tortura mecánica, demostraron que la industria española de posguerra era capaz de fabricar máquinas indestructibles. Había nacido la leyenda. Un paddock de catedral y la Edad de Oro Para los años 60, la carrera se internacionalizó y alcanzó niveles surrealistas. Los mecánicos extranjeros de marcas como BMW alucinaban al ver que sus boxes no eran garajes, sino el interior del mismísimo Estadio Olímpico. El sonido de los motores resonando en las bóvedas de piedra creaba una acústica de catedral mecánica espectacular. Allí mandaban los pilotos catalanes, los "especialistas de la montaña". Conocían cada bache y sabían dónde ganar un par de segundos si se tenía el coraje de no frenar en la bajada de la Pérgola. Llegados a 1969, el mundo estaba obsesionado con los motores de cuatro tiempos, pero Salvador Cañellas y Carlos Rocamora ganaron la prueba con el humo azul de una Bultaco 360 de dos tiempos. Una victoria de David contra Goliat. Poco después irrumpieron las poderosas Ducati con el rey indiscutible: Benjamín "Min" Grau, que destrozaba récords desafiando las leyes de la física urbana. La noche de las alucinaciones La madrugada en Montjuïc era como una novela de misterio. Sin apenas iluminación, los pilotos dependían de sus propios faros y de la mortecina luz amarillenta de las farolas. Con el terrible cansancio y tras repetir infinitas veces las 30 curvas del trazado en "modo automático", muchos sufrían alucinaciones visuales, creyendo ver muros o sombras cruzando la pista. Mientras ellos luchaban contra sus propios demonios en la oscuridad de la pista, en las laderas de la montaña el público vivía un carnaval pagano de velocidad, asando carne a un metro de las motos. El final de una era: Velocidad contra seguridad En la década de los 80, la tecnología cambió las reglas de forma radical. Llegaron las grandes y pesadas "bestias" japonesas que rozaban los 300 km/h, pero el circuito seguía siendo un estrecho parque público lleno de árboles y muros de piedra inamovibles. Para los pilotos del Mundial de Resistencia de 1980, Montjuïc producía verdadero terror y pasó a ser conocido como el "circuito de los valientes o los locos". El trágico, aunque previsible, final llegó en la edición de 1986. Un accidente mortal segó la vida de Domingo Gil y confirmó lo que muchos temían: las motos habían evolucionado tanto que el entorno se había vuelto insosteniblemente letal. Los equipos internacionales se plantaron, el circuito fue despojado de su licencia y la montaña mágica se apagó para siempre. La competición se mudó a los modernos y seguros trazados de Jerez y Montmeló, pero sin esa alma inigualable. Hoy, si cierras los ojos en la Font del Gat, aún puedes imaginar el eco de los motores. Las 24 Horas de Montjuïc no solo enseñaron a fabricar motos en España, forjaron un carácter de resiliencia y pasión que cimentó las bases de nuestra actual potencia mundial en el motociclismo. ¿Conocías la increíble historia de esta carrera legendaria?

My Recap of an eventful HungarianGP- Qualifying: Marc says he's good for one lap. That may not have been totally truthful- Sprint: Marc is back, and Acosta does what he can- Ducati looks better than Aprilia. Well...at least Marc does- MotoGP Race: Hey, Jorge - look out for those Apri--- oops, oh well...- The Martin wreck - that was...not ideal- Marquez-Acosta - did that short battle give Marc the extra motivation he needed?- Pecco was a bit lucky - but who cares when you get a trophy?- Morbidelli and Binder need to explain themselves.- The Championship picture: and, just like that, Marc gets a lifeline- My take on the HungarianGP: where were the fans?What did you think of Balaton Park?

Dre Harrison, Lewis Duncan and Peter McLaren join forces to review the Hungarian GP and what could be a major flashpoint in the 2026 Championship.Marc Marquez would dominate the weekend, just his second race back from being on an operating table just 27 days prior. He'd win both the Sprint and the Grand Prix to become just the third member of the 100 win club, as well as Ducati's 100th win as a factory team.But the weekend was a disaster for Aprilia, with Jorge Martin making a huge mistake braking into Turn 1, losing control and crashing into his teammate Marco Bezzecchi, fellow Aprilia rider Raul Fernandez, Fabio di Giannantonio and Fermin Aldeguer. With tensions rising in the Aprilia camp, is Marquez back in the title picture after reducing the deficit to 72 points? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Pecco Bagnaia lo aveva detto: attenti a Marquez al Balaton Park! Aveva ragione ed anche se Marc si era schermito il 9 volte iridato ha dominato. Dopo la Sprint, il Gran Premio, sempre e solo con Pedro Acosta come degno avversario.La gara è stata caratterizzata dallo strike iniziale di Jorge Martin che oltre al suo compagno di squadra ha tirato in terra Diggia (che poi è ripartito), Raul Fernandez e Fermin Aldeguer, errore per il quale gli è stato comminato un doppio long lap penalty per il prossimo Gran Premio.Ora Marquez ha recuperato un bel po' di punti sui fuggitivi ma Bezzecchi è ancora saldamente in testa al campionato.Vedremo da Brno come proseguirà l'inseguimento. Se proseguirà. Ne parlato, Carletto, Matteo e Marco. Paolo chiude la Live entrando in ritardo, ma non a gamba tesa.

Ne jamais enterrer Marc Márquez trop tôt. Le nonuple champion du monde l'a une nouvelle fois démontré en Hongrie. Désormais à 78 points de retard de Marco Bezzecchi, leader du championnat, le n°93 n'a clairement pas dit son dernier mot. Alors que peu d'observateurs le voyaient encore en mesure de se battre pour le titre il y a quelques semaines, la dynamique est-elle en train de s'inverser ?Un air de Barcelone ? Le Balaton Park est passé tout près d'un scénario similaire après l'accrochage du premier virage impliquant 4 pilotes. Alors que des réflexions sur la sécurité sont en cours, quelles solutions sont les bonnes ? Une chute aux lourdes conséquences pour Aprilia, avec un 0 pointé ce dimanche. La fougue de Jorge Martín pourrait-elle finir par pénaliser son équipe et son coéquipier ?Ce podcast est hébergé par Podcastics, la plateforme pour créer et diffuser votre podcast facilement.

Ducati cumple 100 años y Máximo Sant entrevista a su CEO en España y Portugal, Carlos T. López Panisello, para hablar del pasado, presente y futuro de la marca italiana.

Last year was the first time we went to Balaton, and the result wasn't great. This year? Hate the track, love the riders. And I say 'riders', plural, because it takes two to tango. And people, did we get one hell of a dance between Acosta and Marquez today. Yes, the king is back and schooling everyone with 1,5 functional arms. Keen readers might notice that this is slightly less than the average of 2, but leave it to Marquez to make the best of it and show everyone how it's done. And if that doesn't make you excited, then just think:He's only going to get better from here. Who also keeps steadily doing better is Pedro Acosta, showing us how gentlemen duel while speeding over the tarmac with Marc. He's making the KTM look good, perhaps even better than it really is. Now let's put him on a Ducati next year, and see what happens...So yes, Mat and Peter have got plenty to talk about. Also, is this going to be the year that the Bez becomes champion? You never know...---Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

A sorpresa (per lui) ma non per gli avversari nella Sprint del Balaton Ring abbiamo assisitito al dominio di Marc Marquez, davanti a Pedro Acosta e Marco Bezzecchi.Un confronto durato appena due giri, visto che il 9 volte iridato in appena due tornate ha archiviato la pratica.Ma insomma, Marquez è tornato o no, e cosa dobbiamo aspettarci dal Gran Premio visto che la sua spalla non è ancora in condizioni perfette?Ne parlano Carlo, Paolo e Matteo che dall'Ungheria offre un inside della situazione fra Ducati e Aprilia. E si finisce per parlare dei pochi posti liberi nel mercato piloti e dei piloti che (quasi sicuramente) saranno costretti a lasciare la MotoGP.

The first half of the WorldSBK season is in the books and Steve and Gordo get you up to date with the latest news from inside the paddock as Nicolo Bulega continues his relentless drive to a first Superbike title. The Italian is still perfect for 2026 with 18 wins from 18 starts but Sunday's Superpole Race saw him pushed harder than at any point thus far. His harder rear tyre proved the difference maker but, as ever, Bulega found a way to win. What must Iker Lecuona be thinking? The Spainard, 15 times a runner-up finisher this year, is hunting for his first WorldSBK victory. He's hurting too because he knows how close he keeps coming to that success. His reward for his hard work will be seen this weekend in MotoGP where he'll replace Alex Marquez. Outside of the Aruba.it Ducati riders there was plenty to talk about but Gordo's conversations with Tommy Bridewell have certainly left an impression. The Englishman had his best finish of the season, fifth position in Race 1, and is making the most out of his Ducati V4R to reap some good results.

La vida te da una de cal y otra de arena. Hoy hablaremos de algo muy alegre, como es que Ducati celebra su centenario por todo lo alto y con 10 modelos de los que ha hecho una serie limitada y que son muy especiales; serán motos que pasarán a la historia. La otra cara de la semana fue la desaparición de nuestro amigo Teo Romera, un moto viajero al que muchos le conoceréis como Mr. Hicks y también como colaborador de algunas publicaciones del motor. Ráfagas al cielo. Del TT de la Isla de Man también nos llegan malas y luctuosas noticias; nuevamente los accidentes son las protagonistas de esta bellísima prueba que está marcada por su peligrosidad.

La Ducati è stata colta di sorpresa a casa sua dall'Aprilia che ha dominato la Sprint del Mugello.

L'1-2 di Aprilia al Mugello ha confermato come la RS-GP e la coppia Bezzecchi-Martin abbiano superato la concorrenza della Ducati non solo nel mondiale, ma anche al Mugello.

Aprilia ha lavorato tanto e ha sfruttato al meglio le concessioni, questa la realtà: la RS-GP appare perfetta e ha piloti fortissimi. Ma, parallelamente, Ducati ha commesso qualche errore? La gara di Bagnaia, 13 giri in testa e poi gomme in crisi, dimostra che la GP16 è sbilanciata? Quando Diggia dice “lottiamo con le Aprilia ma anche con il nostro avantreno”, cosa intende? Con Renè al Mugello, con Bernardelle e Cadalora chiariremo la situazione. Comunque sia, grande Italia. Il dominio tecnico delle due case italiane è schiacciante, sabato la prima moto non-italiana è nona (e domenica è sesta): è la KTM di Acosta (“limitata” dopo i problemi tecnici?). Tra i promossi del Mugello c'è Pedro, poi Marc Marquez stoico al rientro, Aldeguer e Moreira. Honda in stallo e molto male Yamaha, con Quartararo dietro a Razga domenica e sempre più teso. Vietti secondo nella Moto2 di Gonzales dopo una gran rimonta; veloci ma intruppati gli italiani in Moto3, con Uriarte al primo successo e Quiles alla prima steccata. E Iannone mattatore nella Bagger Cup, che ritroveremo ad Assen. Ora la MotoGP va subito in Ungheria, al Balaton Park, per le rivincite.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dopogp-motogp-moto-it--4070022/support.

18e, c'est le résultat de Fabio Quartararo, dépourvu de toute motivation à l'issue de ce GP d'Italie. Le Français acceptera-t-il cette situation jusqu'à la fin de saison ? Est-il déjà écarté du projet Yamaha ? À l'inverse, Aprilia prend le pouvoir sur Ducati. Vainqueur depuis 2022 sur ce tracé, les rouges sont à nouveau vaincus. Est-ce officiellement la fin du règne Ducati ?Affluence record pour le GP d'Italie au Mugello, une première depuis la fin de l'ère Rossi en MotoGP, le tracé italien a-t-il retrouvé son attractivité ?

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! Give it up for Cory West, American rider representing Saddlemen Racing in the Bagger World Cup. He's very charming, funny and isn't afraid to walk around the entire track with Mat while carrying a silly microphone. And let me tell you, the man knows his history.

Marc Márquez vuelve a empezar de cero por enésima vez después. 19 días después de pasar por el quirófano, el piloto de Cervera ha logrado la sexta posición este viernes, donde la mejor noticia es que no ha sentido ese hormigueo en el brazo que venía arrastrando todo el año. Dominio total de los pilotos locales y de Ducati, que ha metido a todos sus pilotos titulares en la Q2 de este Gran Premio de Italia de MotoGP.

The freedom of the open road, escape from the every day, and throw in a little rebellious spirit - that's what motorcycles are all about right? Well, according to author, historian, and professor, Dr Wendy Pojmann, that idea may only exist in the US - whereas, in Italy, motorcycles are looked at more as a part of everyday life. In her book, Connected by the street, the myths and realities of motorcycles in the USA and Italy, Wendy breaks down the pretty striking difference between how motorcycles are perceived in the US culture versus the Italian culture - whether you look at racing, manufacturers, or even motorcycle clubs. The product of Wendy's research stems from her passion for everything Italian - from Ducatis and Vespas to espresso, and combines it with her personal experiences from the surprising reactions of both Italians and Americans when they learn she rides a motorcycle - although I guess you won't find a huge of crossover between college professors and motorcycle riders. What's fascinating about Wendy's book is that it takes a lot of things that motorcyclists may already ‘know', but frames it in an academic sense, complete with research and historical context - and you may not look at Italian motorcycles the same way again.

In early 2009, Paolo Poma found himself navigating what he recalls as a “really tough” period. At the time, he was helping steer Ducati through a leveraged buyout negotiated before the collapse of Lehman Brothers. Debt obligations had arrived just as markets were “plummeting,” Poma tells us, while lenders closely monitored covenant compliance and private equity owners pressed ahead with the deal.Poma remembers sitting with bankers and shareholders through repeated discussions about liquidity, budgets, and cash generation. “Planning cash was crucial because covenants on cash were really tight,” he tells us. The experience forced him to balance operational performance with financial discipline while uncertainty spread across global markets. Ducati ultimately avoided breaking its covenants, Poma tells us, and the period became one of the defining stretches of his finance career.The challenge also reinforced the leadership style that would later shape his tenure at Lamborghini. Trained originally as an engineer, Poma tells us he built his finance career by combining analytical rigor with business understanding. He later expanded his responsibilities from controlling to investor relations, treasury, and accounting before formally becoming CFO in 2011.Today, that long-view mindset influences how he approaches Lamborghini's growth. The company grew from roughly €200 million in revenue to nearly €2.4 billion over the last decade, Poma tells us, while maintaining a focus on profitability, product discipline, and sustainable expansion.

Find me on Substack: https://bogumilbaranowski.substack.com/In this monthly Unfiltered Coffee check-in, I start with a lesson I keep learning from wealthy people — live your life now, don't wait. I share a personal story about buying and riding a red Ducati, and the unexpected memories it created. Sometimes the best investments we make aren't financial at all.I answer listener questions, recommend where new listeners can start, and highlight standout recent and upcoming episodes — conversations on historical financial advice, intangible assets, surrounding yourself with good people, microcaps, Berkshire and Buffett, family advising, trading psychology, and execution.I talk about how I research and track many stocks, and why research itself is a form of motion. Small adjustments beat freezing every time. I share my productivity system — notes, scheduling, a weekly “improve or eliminate” review, and the power of an “undo button” when things don't work.We get into outdated money beliefs and why so many people don't feel wealthy even when they are. Money as freedom. Money as peace of mind. The difference between waiting for permission and finding the courage to act.I reflect on what I'm learning from studying Li Lu, on staying patient in markets that feel expensive, and on why advisory fees are really an investment in trust and service. We close with thoughts on outsourcing versus doing it yourself, a “forgotten money” exercise that might surprise you, and what it means to keep and pass on wealth with intention.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

Hello and welcome again to the Motos and Friends Podcast. This episode is brought to you by Leod Escapes. My name is Arthur Coldwells. *  *  *  *  * Have you ever wanted to ride a real MotoGP track? Well, here's your chance! Leod Escapes does all sorts of amazing European tours, including the incredible Munich to Mugello tour at the end of June, or you can try the Core of Catalunya or the Portimão Andalusia trips, both in October. These are incredible touring experiences with the very best that Europe has to offer, as well as riding these amazing tracks on brand new BMW S1000RRs. So for the trip of a lifetime, visit LeodEscapes.com, now! *  *  *  *  * In our first segment, Nic de Sena tells us all about his recent trip to Spain to ride the new 2027 Suzuki GSX-R1000R. Suzuki did a slightly different spin on this particular launch where they split the journalists into teams of 3, and had a 6-hour endurance ‘race' to see how well everyone fared. Nic gives us the lowdown on what it's like to the new Gixxer and for such long track sessions! Rider Market from just outside Orlando, Florida, is the winner of the recent Royal Enfield BTR Build-Off competition in the Road Race category. Brian Koster is the Parts Director at Rider Market and he tells us briefly about the machine and parts he selected that made this retro-looking Royal Enfield stand out and take the trophy.   Our guest for this episode is Brian Bentley. A few years ago, just prior to Covid, Brian had a chance to buy a Ducati 916. He's always been a major fan of the bike ever since it launched in the early nineties. He'd actually been looking for a 748 for a while, but when this great example came to his attention he couldn't resist. The only snag was that it was completely disassembled. So, Brian did what any reasonable bike-fanatic would do: he loaded all the endless boxes of parts into the trunk of his SUV, headed home to Daytona Beach, and started the build.

Appena chiusi i test alle 18, con Renè rimasto al Montmelo e l'ing dall'Italia analizziamo i tanti temi di cronaca, di tecnica e di sport del sesto GP della stagione. Prima le news: le condizioni dei due piloti ospedalizzati e quindi il lavoro svolto in pista e nel box nella giornata di oggi. Poi i tanti interrogativi sollevati dal GP. Che cosa è successo sulla KTM di Acosta tamponata nel primo incidente? Come si è agganciato Zarco alla Ducati di Bagnaia nel secondo dramma? E ancora: perché tanti piloti sotto la pressione minima? Il grip così scarso ha rappresentato un problema di difficile soluzione? Il fine settimana è stato negativo per il leader del campionato Bezzecchi e per Aprilia in generale, con Martin recordman di cadute e con i due piloti di Trackhouse accusati di eccessiva aggressività (anche casalinga…). Tecnicamente, da segnalare la superiorità di Ducati a Barcellona e i segnali incoraggianti arrivati da Honda e da Yamaha. Sicurezza, tema complesso e tante voci. Dalla contestata terza ripartenza agli abbassatori, i rischi che corrono i piloti sono sottovalutati?Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dopogp-motogp-moto-it--4070022/support.

Dre Harrison, Peter McLaren and Lewis Duncan come together to review a harrowing Catalan GP weekend.The weekend was marred by two huge crashes on Sunday. Pedro Acosta's KTM cutting out on the back straight leading to Alex Marquez riding into him at full speed, breaking his collarbone and sending him to hospital. This before a restarted race led to Johann Zarco heading to hospital with torn ligaments in his knee after being hooked on Pecco Bagnaia's Ducati. The race was won by Fabio di Giannantonio at the third time of asking. Many questions are asked, such as whether KTM should have been allowed to continue, must the show always go on for MotoGP? Does Barcelona need resurfacing and yet more safety changes? And does MotoGP need a riders union to unify their voice? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

La Sprint di Barcellona ha visto una bella lotta fra Alex Marquez e Pedro Acosta che, durante la schermaglia, avranno avuto il tempo di osservare il comportamento della moto che guideranno la prossima stagione.Spettatore, anche se un po' più da lontano, Di Giannantonio, pure in odore di salire sulla moto austriaca nel 2027.Assente Marc Marquez, convalescente dopo l'operazione a spalla e piede, Carlo, Paolo e Matteo hanno commentato l'assenza dalle posizioni che contano dei leader dell'Aprilia. Martin è caduto, Marco ha concluso solo in nona posizione, davanti a Bastianini, conquistando un solo punto di vantaggio sul compagno di squadra.Ma ciò che ha fatto discutere è stata la difesa di ufficio di Valentino Rossi che, intervistato da Sky, ha preso le difere di pecco Bagnaia, solo sesto, invitando Ducati ad aiutare maggiormente il loro pilota.Bagnaia, poi, ha smentito Valentino prendendo le difese della sua squadra.L'argomento ovviamente ha acceso gli animi, specie fra Matteo, sostenitore di pecco e Paolo, che ha ribadito l'eccessiva tendenza alle lamentazioni del pilota torinese, con Carletto insolitamente nel ruolo di pacere!E' il Bar Sport!

Lewis Duncan, Pete McLaren and Dre Harrison review MotoGP's 2026 French GP.It was another historic day for Aprilia as they captured their first ever victory at Le Mans, their first ever 1-2-3 podium lockout, and for the first time in 18 months, Jorge Martin is a Grand Prix winner again. Is this a major flashpoint in the Championship? And what does it mean for team chemistry, especially with Ai Ogura also contending for the win for the first time?It was also another horror weekend for Ducati, with Marc Marquez having a huge crash in the Sprint, breaking a metatarsal in his foot that put him out of the Grand Prix and the Catalonia GP next week. Is it the end of his Championship defence?A potential Fabio di Giannantonio move to KTM is also discussed, as well as a strong Fabio Quartararo home weekend and whether it gives Yamaha a boost. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

La tripletta Aprilia a Le Mans è un successo storico per la casa di Noale, come storico è il ritorno alla vittoria di Jorge Martin, 'Martinator' davanti alle RS.GP di Bezzecchi e Ai Ogura.Con questo successo, nonostante Massimo Rivola si ostini a voler giocare di rimessa, Aprilia diventa la candidata numero 1 al titolo mondiale.Già perché con Marc Marquez fuori per (almeno) due Gran Premi non si vede chi possa insidiare la coppia di Noale.A meno che l'insidia sia proprio interna. Ma è meglio gestire che inseguire.In capo Ducati nel frattempo le cose si complicano perché se è vero che la miglior Ducati è quella di Di Giannantonio, parliamo di un pilota che si è già promesso a KTM e che non ha dalla sua la consistenza.D'altro canto nemmeno Bagnaia sembra recuperato, mentre Morbidelli è l'ombra di sé stesso e Aldeguer non è ancora in forma dopo la frattura del femore.Si può averamente dire che 'black is the new red'.Ne parlano - animatamente - Paolo, Carlettro e Marco.

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?

La vittoria di Martin, che accorcia le distanze dal compagno di squadra Bezzecchi, il podio di Bagnaia, ma soprattutto la caduta di Marc Marquez hanno caratterizzato la Sprint di Le Mans.Una Sprint che, al netto della frattura al quinto metatarso del piede destro di Marc, ci ha rivelato che il 9 volte iridato aveva già programmato l'ennesimo intervento alla spalla destra per una vite allentata che entrava in contatto con un nervo. Il problema che lo ha rallento in questo inizio del campionato.Il risultato: Marc salterà non solo il GP di Le Mans, ma anche il prossimo a Barcellona ed il suop ritorno è in forse anche per il Mugello.Un LIVE estrenamente interessante con Paolo, Carlo e Matteo che vi raccontano anche le ultime notizie da insider.

Another week and another weekend of Ducati dominance from Nicolo Bulega. The Italian is Superbike Superstar is constantly rewriting the record books in 2026. Steve and Gordo break down the action from Balaton Park and talk about how circumstances played a role in Bulega's success but ultimately his talent, speed and consistency is why he continues to win. Beyond the success of Bulega we look at the other major talking points of the weekend. These included the action of the FIM Race Stewards against Andrea Locatelli for his part in the accident that left Miguel Oliveira sidelined for upcoming rounds through injury. Loka was given a double long lap penalty for his actions and this led to lots of discussion in the paddock. With Oliveira sidelined the fortunes of Ducati's rivals is also discussed.

Ducati's dominance of the Dutch Round of WorldSBK was completed by a 1-2-3-4-5-6 finish in Race 2. It was a stunning performance by the red bikes and on this week's pod we break down what we saw at TT Circuit Assen.
