Podcast appearances and mentions of Johann Zarco

Johann Zarco ble historisk vinner av Frankrike GP foran et ekstatisk Le Mans-publikum! Vi dykker ned i det historiske øyeblikket, analyserer løpet runde for runde. Dessuten røper vi sjokknyheten om at Jorge Martin ser ut til å forlate Aprilia, og at bagger-racing kommer til MotoGP i 2026.

Johann Zarco vasárnapi győzelmével csupa nagybetűvel írta be magát a francia motorsport történelemkönyvébe. 71 év után zengett ismét a La Marseillaise a francia nagydíj után. De ez a csoda még három napig se tartott, hiszen hétfőn jött Jorge Martín és belevágta a pocsolyába a malomkövet.

LeMans delivered chaos, unpredictable weather, too many bike swaps to count, and a historic win in front of a record-breaking crowd.

When you put the word 'French' in front of other words (like 'sex' or 'kissing' or 'fries') magic happens. But when. you put it in front of the sentence 'victory in their home Moto GP for the first time in history' things go to a whole other level. Johann Zarco became an instant national hero when he made history as the first French rider to win the premiere class at Le Mans and the team at The Greatest Motorcycling Podcast in the Universe are here for all of it. Boris, Tug and Freido are joined by special in studio guest Pete Vorst of Compass Expeditions as they break down one of the most memorable race wins in years. There's also Boris' poem (an ode to Zarco), Freido's horoscope (also about Zarco...there's a pattern emerging here) and the 'Simone Flatterson Man Boobs and Grid Girl Critique' (which isn't about Zarco but is still magnificent) and the rest of the puerile nonsense you've come to expect from these three reprobates. Hit the play button and enjoy the gloriousness of it. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry and it it will make you irresistably attractive to the opposite sex. You've been warned.

Why did so many other riders who had the chance to match Zarco's strategy choose not to?Did the new rules prompted by Marquez's dash off the Austin grid work on their first appearance and was this actually a great race (Matt thinks so and Val sort of agrees) or a rubbish and processional non-spectacle? (Simon thinks so).Want more MotoGP podcast content? Sign up to our motorbike-only Riders tier on Patreon for our 2015 revisited series, ad-free listening and more.

Dre Harrison, Richard Asher and Oriol Puigdemont host an emergency edition of Tank Slappers off the back of one of the biggest bombshell MotoGP stories of 2025 so far. The majority of the show is taken up with the breaking news that Jorge Martin met with Aprilia discreetly during the French GP weekend at Le Mans and told the team that he intends to leave at the end of the season via a performance clause that was in his contract that gave him an option to leave after six races if Martin wasn't placed high enough in the Championship. Oriol breaks down how this story came about, the logic behind Martin activating the clause in his contract, where Martin may intend to move to as a result if he fully commits to leaving, and what this means for Aprilia going forward if their news talismanic rider wants to leave despite just one GP weekend with the team so far. There's also a short review of the French GP itself, as Johann Zarco become the first premier class home winner of the race since 1954, as well as why it was a huge weekend for Marc Marquez in the Championship fight, and Pecco Bagnaia's latest explanations for his struggles after leaving the weekend without a single point. 

Soixante et onze ans d'attente, Johann Zarco devient le premier Français à remporter le GP de France depuis Pierre Monneret en 1954.Distribué par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Non oggi ma nel 1954, quando a vincere il GP di Francia (disertato per protesta da alcune case) era stato il francese Monneret. Johann Zarco ha fatto suonare la marsigliese nella top class dopo ben 71 anni trionfando in MotoGP. Con il record di spettatori

durée : 00:03:07 - L'info d'ici, ici Maine - C'est une journée historique dont les fans de MotoGP se souviendront pendant longtemps. Le pilote français Johann Zarco a remporté le Grand Prix de France Moto au Mans ce dimanche 11 mai 2025, sous la pluie, devant plus de 120.000 spectateurs.

Le Mans surpreendeu fora e dentro de pista, quando todos esperavam que o francês Fabio Quartararo dominasse eis que surge o veterano Johann Zarco, que levou a Marseillaise ao lugar mais alto do pódio. Por outro lado, quem surpreendeu, novamente, pela negativa foi Pecco Bagnaia, que continua a ser ofuscado pelos outros pilotos da Ducati. O GP de França contou com o regresso do Miguel Oliveira, que na corrida caótica de domingo, chegou a rodar em segundo. Apesar da queda, o português sai de Le Mans com boas sensações, veremos o que reserva Silverstone.

Sometimes, MotoGP is all about the numbers. Like the number 23 - the amount of races Ducati would have had to win in order to set a new world record. Or the number 1 - the amount they came up short. That bit was courtesy of Number 5, a.k.a. Johann Zarco, the man driving the home crowd wild through a spectacular performance. And going wild they should, as it's been 73 years since a Frenchman claimed victory at Le Mans! And then there's the weather, the tires and of course the crashes, including one incident caused squarely by our old nemesis Mr. Holeshot Device. Think Mat and Peter have some thoughts on this? You know they do! So join us in drinking cheap champagne and talking about, let's just say it, the best race this season. Cheers!Want more?

Salut à toutes et à tous, On retrouve Ophélie pour un entretien avec Sébastien Moreno enregistré durant le salon du 2 roues de Lyon. Sebastien est, depuis de nombreuses années l'assistant technique et ami de Johann Zarco. Dans cet entretien, il revient sur sa découverte de la moto, ses débuts au sein de la structure ZF Grand Prix, et son rôle d'accompagnant auprès des pilotes dans divers championnats : des Grands Prix avec Johann Zarco, à l'endurance aux côtés de Corentin Perolari, en passant par le championnat d'Espagne avec Hugo De Cancellis. Il partage avec nous sa vision du sport, l'importance de son rôle au sein d'un team, son quotidien sur les circuits, ainsi que l'impact que le sport moto a eu – et continue d'avoir – dans sa vie. On évoque aussi les nouveaux championnats, l'intérêt d'aller rouler en Espagne, mais également ses projets d'avenir, tant pour lui que pour les pilotes qu'il accompagne.

Après 560 jours hors du Top 3, Fabio Quartararo retrouve le podium ! Une pole position et une deuxième place précieuses dans un contexte où la Yamaha reste en difficulté. Coup d'éclat ou véritable signe de progression ? Alex Marquez a quant a lui décroché sa première victoire en MotoGP. À nouveau leader du championnat, le n°73 peut-il sérieusement viser le titre face à son frère ? Maverick Viñales, 4e, signe une deuxième grosse performance au guidon de la KTM, de quoi ravir l'usine autrichienne et Tech3. Chez Ducati, alors qu'on nous promettait un grand duel pour la victoire, la réalité a été bien différente pour Francesco Bagnaia et Marc Márquez. Enfin, Johann Zarco, qui s'était habitué aux Top 5, connaît un début de campagne européenne plus compliqué que prévu.

Ahead of the European leg of the 2025 MotoGP season kicking off at Jerez, what is the biggest question facing every manufacturer? Megan White and Valentin Khorounzhiy try to answer that question for each of Aprilia, Honda, Yamaha, KTM and Ducati. What does Aprilia do now that Jorge Martin - on whom there is another injury update - is facing a further spell on the sidelines? How should Honda play the expiring contracts of Johann Zarco and Luca Marini? How good does the Yamaha V4 engine - now being extensively track-tested - need to be before it is brought to races? And what can KTM learn from Maverick Vinales' formbook-breaking Qatar GP run? Finally, what approach should Ducati take to its longer-term rider roster? Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Dre Harrison is back to host another episode of Tank Slappers after a newsworthy Grand Prix of Qatar, joined by Autosport and Motorsport.com writers Uri Puigdemont and Richard Asher.  Once again it was Marc Marquez who dominated from the front to take his third double victory of the season in the Sprint and the Grand Prix. The trio talk about Marquez's brilliance despite the early clash with his brother Alex, and the worry for teammate Francesco Bagnaia, who was expected to win on a track he's won at multiple times before. There's also the latest news on the condition of World Champion Jorge Martin, who suffered a horrendous crash after being struck by Fabio DiGiannantonio, and is set to miss three months of racing after having his lung collapse and breaking 11 of his ribs.  Maverick Vinales shocked everyone in the sport by giving Marquez a run for his money by finishing second on the road, only to drop to 14th after the race finished due to a breach of the tyre pressure regulations. Dre and Richard discuss whether the rule needs changing after Vinales spent multiple laps leading to bring his tyre pressures down.  There's also the polarising performances coming from the Japanese manufactures, as Honda's Johann Zarco continues to impress with a fourth-placed finish, while Fabio Quartararo falls down the order after claiming his first front-row start in nearly three years. 

Az élen minden változatlan. Marc és Alex Marquez hátát nézi továbbra is a teljes mezőny. Marc újabb tökéletes hétvégét hozva, pályafutása 90. nagydíjgyőzelmét aratta a gyorsaságimotoros-vb-n, ezzel utolérve Angel Nietot az örökranglista harmadik helyén. Francesco Bagnaia ugyan közeledett riválisaira, de érdemben ezúttal sem tudott beleszólni a hétvége legfontosabb kérdéseibe, ráadásul a nagydíjon még csak a dobogó sem jött össze, mert azt Franco Morbidelli elhappolta előle - ezzel a VR46 versenyzője 1414 nap után állhatott ismét dobogóra. A hétvége meglepetését pedig a Honda és főként Johann Zarco hozta, aki a Ducati mögötti veresenyfutás legkiemelkedőbb versenyzője volt.

Marc Marquez declared his brother Alex to be his main 2025 MotoGP title rival after their battle for victory in the Argentine Grand Prix. Was he getting carried away with sibling affection or is Alex really capable of denying his big brother a first championship in six years? Simon Patterson, Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer debate that in the Termas de Rio Hondo episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast. Even if Alex's title challenge can't be sustained, right now he's in a better form and championship situation than Marc's works Ducati team-mate Pecco Bagnaia. We hear Bagnaia's explanation for his current lack of pace, and give our take on where he's lacking. Plus Ai Ogura's bizarre disqualification explained, Honda's progress debated after Johann Zarco's amazing weekend, fondness for the resurgent Franco Morbidelli and The Race Members' Club reminds Simon that he predicted first-lap crasher/otherwise anonymous performer Marco Bezzecchi was going to win this race (which prompts a small argument about penalties).

Com'era nelle previsioni - e c'è chi ci ha scommesso e vinto già nel 2024 - la profezia 'Marquez meno qualcosa' di Carletto Pernat si è rivelata corretta. Solo che il 'meno qualcosa' può essere trascritto come 'avversari'.Anche nel secondo Gran Premio della stagione Marc ha centrato pole, sprint e Gran Premio battagliando, come già gli era successo, solo con il fratello Alex. Bravissimo ma non ancora in grado di sconfiggere il fratello maggiore.Questa volta sul podio è arrivato Frankie Morbidelli, che ha preceduto un irriconoscibile Francesco Bagnaia e - udite udite - Johann Zarco con la Honda.ùNe parlano il Decano, Carletto e Marco Caregnato.

Marc Marquez frappe fort en ouvrant la saison avec deux victoires consécutives en GP et en sprint. Son frère, Alex, qui a mené 16 tours en Argentine, assure le doublé de la fratrie. Équipés d'une GP-25 et d'une GP-24 championne du monde, les deux frères ont atteint un niveau de domination inédit. Qui sera capable de les battre ? Meilleur pilote derrière l'armada de Ducati, Johann Zarco a réalisé un week-end de rêve au guidon de la Honda ; avec le podium en ligne de mire. Pourtant, c'est un Morbidelli diminué qui, à la surprise générale, met fin à 1414 jours hors du TOP 3. Du côté de Yamaha et KTM, on recule plus qu'on n'avance…

Carletto Pernat, il Denaco e Caregnato parlano del secondo 1-2 dei fratelli Marquez a Rio Hondo, con Bagnaia ancora una volta terzo.In questa occasione Marc ha affermato di aver dovuto faticare di più per battere Alex, ma la vera sorpresa è stato Johann Zarco, non tanto o solo per il quarto posto, ma soprattutto per la terza posizione in qualifica.Un basso avanti per la Honda, mentre la Yamaha risulta ancora attardata e la KTM soffre per il rapido degrado delle gomme.E c'è stata un'altra scommessa fra Pernat e Scalera a proposito di una presunta dichiarazione di Gigi Dall'Igna (nel 2024) sull'evoluzione della GP23 guidata allora da Marc. Chi vincerà la cena questa volta?

Bonjour et bienvenue pour ce dernier débrief de fin de saison 2024. Chez CQEP, on cloture donc cette saison incroyable avec cet épisode. Ophélie accueille Paul, Pierre et Kévin de LBAC pour cette partie 2 qui se concentre sur la catégorie reine: le MotoGP ! Les performances des pilotes et des teams sont décortiquées et analysées et on revient longuement sur Jorge Martin, Pecco Bagnaia, Marc Marquez, Pedro Acosta, Fabio Quartararo et Johann Zarco. Mentions spéciales à Honda qui se prend des taquets et Vinales qui fait débat. Bonne écoute et à bientôt pour le lancement de saison 2025.

Honda and Yamaha used to monopolise the MotoGP title fights. Now they're mocked as having their own ‘Japanese Cup' at the back of the field, as even getting into Q2 feels like a victory given how far they've fallen. All of which must make it tough to be a rider at one of those brands. But when Simon Patterson sat down for exclusive one-on-one interviews with all six Honda and Yamaha riders for The Race MotoGP Podcast, their differing views on their situations shone through. We hear Fabio Quartararo's take on why he stayed at Yamaha even though he often seems to hate its bike, a brutally open Joan Mir on what he's desperate to happen at Honda and Johann Zarco and Luca Marini explaining what they've got out of being part of struggling Honda this year after stepping off frontrunning Ducatis. Plus Alex Rins' take on his fitness battle and Taka Nakagami's reflections on Honda's situation as his full-time racing career ends. Simon, Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer share their thoughts on what the sextet had to say, and what the future might hold for all of them. And if you want to hear all six interviews in full and uncut, they're going to be available exclusively to The Race Members' Club. Want more MotoGP podcast content?

MotoGP 2024's 'big three' Jorge Martin, Pecco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez produced an absolutely epic French Grand Prix weekend at Le Mans between them. But which of them looks most like the 2024 champion, and are two of them set to be 2025 team-mates?

Just when you thought the MotoGP Season was simmering over nicely in 2024, Jerez was when the touch paper was lit. Francesco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez go head-to-head for the first time since 2021! On this week's episode, Dre, RJ and SUper Sub Ryan Erik King break down one of the most anticipated fights in recent MotoGP history. Jorge Martin tucks the front and cleared the way to have a clash for the ages, including wheels on shoulders and some stunning overtaking attempts. We also talk an absolutely chaotic Sprint Race as 15 riders hit the deck at a damp Jerez track as Dani Pedrosa gets back on a podium for KTM at the ripe old age of 38! We also talk Johann Zarco getting tossed from Race Direction after saying Freddie Spencer was unfit for his job. He may have had a point after Aleix Espargaro took him out with no penalty... Another day in MotoGP! All that on another M101 Episode!

MotoGP returned home this past weekend with the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix from Jerez, and the fans were treated to an all-time classic between two of the very best riders in the world. Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia had an intense battle for the win, taking advantage of a Jorge Martin crash from the lead in the middle period of the race, and Bagnaia ultimately triumphed with his third straight Jerez victory by just four tenths of a second. On this week's edition of Tank Slappers, Autosport's Lewis Duncan and Motorsport.com's Oriol Puigdemont discuss the intoxicating fight, as well as Martin's role in the action, and where all three of the riders title campaigns could he heading with Le Mans next up in a fortnights time.  Also discussed on the show this week, more struggles for Honda as Luca Marini was the last rider over the line, Johann Zarco getting kicked out of Race Direction after a crash with Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro, and whether Jerez can be a "blue ribbon" race for the sport, like Monaco could be for Formula 1, now both sports are under the Liberty Media umbrella. 

Ever since Marc Marquez get himself a Ducati, the MotoGP world has been waiting eagerly to see a head-to-head victory fight between him and reigning champion Pecco Bagnaia. That's exactly what the Spanish Grand Prix became - and it was absolutely worth all the anticipation. Does Bagnaia's defeat of Marquez show Ducati's current number one has his famous new stablemate covered? Or does the fact Marquez is so quick on a Ducati (and an old-spec one at that) already show Bagnaia will need to raise his game? That's one of the big debates between Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer on The Race MotoGP Podcast, along with what championship leader Jorge Martin should be thinking about it all after crashing out of the race lead. The 15-crash madness of the Jerez sprint and an extraordinary stewards' office rant by Johann Zarco also feature.

Eventful might be underselling the week at Phillip Island but in the end it was all worth it when we finally got to see the Johann Zarco backflip. The flying frenchman climbed out of his dumpster round the back of what passes for team buildings at the Island and grabbed his first victory in a crazy weekend of racing at the circuit at the end of the earth. Two of the three MotoPG reprobates were there and the third can't decide if he's glad or sad that he didn't go. Anyway, enough of this rubbish press play. Now.

MotoGP only managed one of its planned two races at the 2023 Australian Grand Prix, but the one that did happen was the best of the season so far.It was also a good candidate for being _the_ race where Jorge Martin blew his title bid. Was his choice of a soft tyre that collapsed on the final lap and dropped him from first to fifth arrogance, hubris or understandable? That's a key debate for Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer on The Race MotoGP Podcast.What happens next in the title fight now Pecco Bagnaia is 27 points clear is a hot topic too, and there's due appreciation for Johann Zarco on the weekend he finally gets a MotoGP race win - and finds out for sure that he's not going to get a factory Honda seat in 2024.The circumstances that led to the grand prix being moved to Saturday and the sprint not happening at all are of course analysed as well, along with some potential ideas for how that situation could be avoided in future seasons.Follow The Race on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookCheck out our latest videos on YouTubeDownload our app on iOS or Android Hosted on Acast.

The best of the best are getting wet and wild at Japan as MotoGP goes to Motegi. This week, Peter is deeply impressed (and scared!) when Jorge Martín takes it to the absolute limit and Mat wants to cry for Johann Zarco. Also: all the reasons why Ducati's go fast when the track gets drenched and why you really don't want a steamy helmet... With big thanks as always to Brad Baloo from The Next Men and Gentleman's Dub Club, who wrote our theme song.

The Race MotoGP Podcast delves into the events of the series' 2023 Austrian Grand Prix weekend, in which the two actual races wound up relatively serene thanks to Pecco Bagnaia's dominance yet the rider market proved as lively as ever.Stand-in host Glenn Freeman is joined by Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy, both fresh off chasing the latest developments in the Red Bull Ring paddock - where Johann Zarco's defection from the Ducati camp to Honda has been confirmed.They try to make sense of Zarco's move and a related (and perhaps even more surprising) development regarding Marco Bezzecchi's 2024 plans, one which suggests one of the best seats on next year's grid is now suddenly open.Also discussed is KTM tying down Brad Binder to a contract extension - on a weekend where Binder again proved an indispensable asset, while confusion over other places in the KTM/Gas Gas line-up continued to gather in the background.Of course, championship leader Bagnaia gets his share of plaudits - and the crew also debate the factors that influenced the quality of the racing on the weekend, as well as the causes of the Saturday multi-bike crash that Jorge Martin was penalised for.Follow The Race on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookCheck out our latest videos on YouTubeDownload our app on iOS or Android Hosted on Acast.

Aprilia looked superb in MotoGP's British Grand Prix at Silverstone, with Aleix Espargaro's last-lap pass on Pecco Bagnaia's Ducati to secure victory from 12th on the grid the icing on a cake that featured three bikes in the top five.So why have it and Espargaro been unable to do that all season? And is this the start of a trend or does it feel like a circumstantial anomaly.Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy, special guest Dre Harrison and Matt Beer debate that in the Silverstone episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast.They also look at yet more wild developments in the rider market, including very revealing information from all parties in a potential Ducati reshuffle that features Johann Zarco potentially being edged aside despite doing nothing wrong right now.Championship leader Pecco Bagnaia gets his usual late-podcast mention for managing to shrug off wobbles without his points status looking in jeopardy, but the absolute state of Marc Marquez and Fabio Quartararo's weekends had fewer glass-half-full elements.Follow The Race on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookCheck out our latest videos on YouTubeDownload our app on iOS or AndroidRight now, you can get $50 off your purchase of $500 or more with code THERACE at bluenile.comTo get 15% off go to mudwtr.com/therace to support the show and use code THERACE for 15% off Hosted on Acast.

Before last weekend, Marc Marquez had never lost a MotoGP race he'd started at the Sachsenring. What a contrast the 2023 German Grand Prix was: five crashes (three of them within 20 minutes in a single qualifying session), a trundle backwards to a finish outside the points in the sprint and then a non-start in the GP after a final crash in the warm-up.So is it game over for the Marquez/Honda relationship? That's certainly what The Race MotoGP podcast panel Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer reckon.Marquez's astonishing(ly bad) weekend is the biggest topic of conversation in our Sachsenring episode, from his actions after the dramatic practice crash with Johann Zarco through to his subdued exit from the weekend just before the main race was due to start.But those who actually contested the grand prix do get a look-in too, as we celebrate an amazing battle between Jorge Martin and Pecco Bagnaia for victory, assess what might happen next in the title fight they're now in, and consider the chance of Martin edging out Enea Bastianini for a shock move to the works Ducati fold alongside Bagnaia in 2024.That great race followed criticism from some riders on Saturday of how "boring" MotoGP has become. Do they still have a point? And is the level of domination Ducati's now achieving - as it took eight of the top nine places in the German GP - as problematic as it might seem? We debate all that too.Follow The Race on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookCheck out our latest videos on YouTubeDownload our app on iOS or AndroidGo to Indochino.com and use code RACE to get 10% off any purchase of $399 or moreSign up for a Chime Checking Account today to link your paycheck.
