Sorry for the delay on this one, been a busy weekend behind the curtain for your boy, forgive me!
Welcome to the latest Motorsport101 and it’s a review of MotoGP’s Spanish Grand Prix, and with it, a little nugget of history. Because after 93 attempts in the top flight (I mean, come on now), Alex Marquez finally becomes a MotoGP Grand Prix winner, and becomes half of the first pair of brothers to ever win MotoGP races together. A special one.
We’ll talk about how Alex Marquez did it, mostly via the help of another Marc Marquez crash in the early stages, and Pecco Bagnaia being stuck behind the pole sitting… wait, Fabio Quartararo?! Yeah, Yamaha’s first GP podium in 560 days, and first pole position in nearly three years. Are they actually back?!
Oh and we chat KTM as well. Good news – Maverick Vinales is kicking ass, and all your bikes are in the Top 10. Bad news – The parent company probably can’t afford to pay off its debt as it stands. Oh and Pedro Acosta lied about having arm pump for a year. GOOD!
