Episode 734: MotoGP Germany: Sachsenking Dethroned

2023-06-23

Hot on the heels of Mugello, Jim and Rich are back to discuss an eventful round 7 of the MotoGP championship at the Sachsenring. This was a truly epoch defining moment in modern MotoGP, as the European factories locked out the top positions and the hitherto unchallenged king of the Sachsenring was vanquished. In amongst all of this is the jubilation of Oncu’s first win in Moto3, together with another demolition job by Pedro Acosta in Moto2. As ever, please subscribe and donate if you can.

Episode 733: Racing Returns

2023-06-16

Jim and Rich come together after a three week break to review the racing racing from Mugello. While the racing was not classic Mugello there was plenty on Rich and Jim's minds. First they cover listener feedback (Sorry Bernie). Then they tackle silly season rumors about Zarco, Martin, Marc Marquez, and the possibility that both Honda and Yamaha will leave MotoGP. Of course the racing action was blighted by the stewards and the random dishing out of penalties. Moto3 was the best race and Oncu is still looking for that first win. Moto2 was a master class by Pedro Acosta and his post race celebration was equally classic. Finally Bagnaia did the double and was truly in a class by himself. Zoom, Zoom....

Episode 728: Penalties and Ambitious Riding

2023-05-04

Rich returns from Oulton Park and joins Jim in discussing the action from Jerez. The Ducati armada was torpedoed by KTM as Miller and Binder had fantastic races. Binder won the Sprint and Pecco won the Sunday main event. Both races were stopped on the first lap as a result of crashes that caused the stewards to hand out some outrageous penalties. The Moto2 race was won by Sam Lowes in a runaway and Pedro Acosta rode to a level headed second place and now leads the championship. Moto3 was the usual barn burner of a race as Ortola doubled up by winning again. His two wins on the trot move him up into title contention.
