Get your MotoGP podcast questions in!

Time for your first chance to submit questions for a post-race episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast!

We'll be giving our take on everything that happened on and off track this weekend at Assen tomorrow, so post your question in the comments below and we'll get through as many as we can in our Dutch TT episode.

And who knows, a few may inspire a MotoGP Extra exclusive for everyone here in The Race Members' Club...

Comments

Matthew, Jonathan - I'd done the cut-off for questions just after Gordon's so I didn't get yours into this episode but they're both great ones so we'll get to them in a pod soon. - Matt

Matt

Hi Simon, I couldn't find a smooth way to fit this one into the post-race episode, but next time we talk calendar (and I bet we will soon with this Kazakh/Qatar shuffle) I'll pop this question in - Matt

Matt

alex rins took another huge off yesterday, and was still limping from his leg injury sustained at mugello in 23. i love alex, and i think he should still be racing… but (as with Pol last year) do riders just force themselves to come back too soon because they’re afraid of the wild rider market?

Jon Brown

After a great performance from Ai Ogura could you see him in MotoGP next year or does the fear of the Honda keep him in Moto2?

Matthew Carrier

It's OK Gordon, we recorded that bonus pod three days ago and that's a lifetime in the 2025 rider market! So I'll see if Simon's changed his mind since Thursday - Matt

Matt

OK well I CLEARLY did not listen to the bonus pod before asking this. Nevermind.

Gordon

Does Simon still think Miller is "out of GP racing full stop", or has the Pramac move changed that?

Gordon

it feels unfair that tyre pressure seems to be dictated by your race situation. if you’ve set it expecting to be in a dogfight but end up in clean air (like marc), you’ve essentially been screwed over from running the race properly. i dunno, letting a competitor through to maintain pressures and whatnot seems against the spirit of why we go racing. teams have repeatedly run outside the tyre pressure ranges in the past and it was fine, so how big of a safety risk do tyre pressures actually pose? i know this has been discussed at length before, but is there a better way of policing all this? because this seems like a farce. thanks for the pod guys !!

Rafa Tjipta

Is there any talk of Sergio Garcia getting a ride in MotoGP next year? I'd love to see him on the new satellite Yamaha.

Eleanor

Outside of it just being a “bad season”, do we have any insight into what’s going on with Bezz? Digi’s success would lead me to think that the bike isn’t the issue. Do you think he’s already checked out and is looking to next season?

Reginald Bleazy

The commentators mentioned a lot of the pace inprovement being down to Michelin tyre improvements... I thought the new tyres were still a while off? Did I miss something or was the team trying to give their partner some potentially half truthful promotion. Incidentally, what is the status of any new tyres down the road?

Jasper Pendlebury

Have we been spoiled by the recent quality of racing that the racing at Assen hasn't seemed as great ?

Seán Rooney

It seems like the hype around Joe Roberts moving to MotoGP was starting to die down coming into this weekend and then he broke his collarbone. Did that injury come at the worst possible time and how does it effect his chances of being at Track house?

Hayes

Where is the Izan Guevara who won the Moto3 Championship? Any chance we might see a return to form?

Seán Egan

Is qualifying a Frankie Carchedi problem? Is it fair to say Joan Mir, Digi and Marquez have not qualified well while working with Frankie?

James Stevenson

Seeing the Hondas running around 2 seconds a lap off the pace in the sprint was upsetting to see if not that surprising to see. How long will it be before we see any signs of improvement or are Honda just completely lost?

Thomas Knights

With formula 1 rumours constantly swirling around a race in South Africa. Do you think there is a higher , the same or lesser chance for Moto GP to appear in South Africa. With the backing of a Moto GP rider for a local race. And do you think a race here will benefit Moto GP audience and potential talent pool .

Simon Spies

I feel that the evil entity that is Ducati Corse will subtly hinder Jorge Martin so he doesn't win the title... thoughts?
