1 00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: Moto GP heads to Great Britain under the summer sunshine 2 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,959 Speaker 1: here and I can say that because Matt, I'm actually 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: here in the UK ahead of this weekend's Silverstone Moto 4 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 1: Grand Prix and it is sunny. It surprisingly landed in 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: London it was rainy and now we are up near 6 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: Buckingham Shea for Silverstony and it is sunny. 7 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: But Matt, welcome back to Pitt Talk. 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: I know you've been busy over on the F one 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: side of things, so welcome back to my favorite subject, 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: Moto GP. 11 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 3: T talk about subject too. Let's be honest. 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: We love that, we love that. 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: Let's go into silly season because I'm sure you guys 14 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: have been reading on Fox sports dot com do au 15 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: for Slash Motors for all of Matt's articles, and you 16 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: released one on Joorge Martin. 17 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: There's something on Jack Miller. But the rumors at. 18 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: The moment are going crazy. I've heard stuff about Pekobanyaya. 19 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: Fill us in what's the latest with me GP Silly season. 20 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 3: I'm so looking forward for you and I to do 21 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 3: a podcast that'll have an audience of two, which will 22 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 3: be you and I after you've spent Thursday crashing around 23 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 3: the paddock trying to work out what's going on here. 24 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 3: But yeah, look, it felt like it was going to 25 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 3: be a pretty relaxedly season compared to last year. I 26 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 3: remember this time last year Migello came and then the 27 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: whole world got turned upside down and tipped upside down 28 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 3: in the space of about a week. But you know, 29 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 3: there are only four riders out of contract this year, 30 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 3: so he thought, okay, it's going to be pretty quiet. 31 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 3: A lot of these guys will probably sign on for 32 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 3: new teams. And then after the French Grand Prix, this 33 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 3: bombshell emerges that Jorge Martin's trying to get himself out 34 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: of the Aprillier contract that he signed at Migello last year. Crazily, 35 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: he's not completed a race at a Prillier yet, of course, 36 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: because he's only been present for one round this year, 37 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 3: and we know what happened in Katari had that horrendous 38 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 3: accident and got hit by Fabio to jan Antonio, so 39 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: he's still sidelined. But a couple of very prominent and 40 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 3: well connected Spanish journalists reported that Martin was in Lemon, 41 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: not at the tree, but at the town in the 42 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 3: lead up to the French GP to have a couple 43 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 3: of meetings with a prilliant management saying I don't want 44 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 3: to stay, I don't want to do this. And what 45 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: they're doing here is there's a clause and no one 46 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 3: quite knows what the clause says except for the people 47 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 3: that signed the contract. But the clause intimates something along 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: the lines of if he's not in amongst the top riders, 49 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 3: and I use that in air quotes because you don't 50 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 3: know where the top means, two, three, five, whatever, that is, 51 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: if he's not among the top riders at a particular 52 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 3: point of the season, he is then free to go elsewhere. 53 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 3: And if you're looking at this from a previous point 54 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 3: of view, it's like, well, how can you possibly be 55 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 3: one of the top riders in the World Championship this 56 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 3: season because you haven't been on the bike except for 57 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: one round and you didn't even finish that. So it 58 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 3: is calling a contract out to the letter of the law. 59 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 3: Is it is there a karmera at the Carmick element 60 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: to this look? Probably not, And I'm sure there will 61 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: be lawyers talking to other lawyers to try and resolve 62 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 3: this buttering thing for me, Roneda and a lot of 63 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 3: people don't know this. This is the second time Jorge 64 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 3: Martinez used some sort of fine print in a contract 65 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 3: to get what he wants when he wants it. And 66 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 3: I go back to the twenty twenty Motor GP season. 67 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: He was in Moto two still at that point, there 68 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 3: was a clause in the contract that he had that 69 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: he had a link to come up to Motor GP 70 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty one with KTM, and there was some 71 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 3: fine print in that contract that there had to be 72 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 3: a KTM rider inside the top ten of the twenty 73 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 3: twenty World Championship by June for that contract to be binding. Now, 74 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 3: of course what happened in twenty twenty COVID there were 75 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 3: no races in twenty twenty until July. So the fact 76 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 3: that there were no KTM riders in the top ten 77 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 3: of the championship in June. Frankly, there were no riders 78 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: in anywhere in the top ten of the championship in June. 79 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: We hadn't had a race. They used that loophole to 80 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 3: extract him from KTM, which is what got him on 81 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: the grid with Pramak to Caddy back in twenty twenty one. 82 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 3: So you look at the paddock. I mean, you know this, 83 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: it's a small place, there's only five manufacturers, and you're thinking, well, 84 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: where could he go? He rage quit Ducati last year 85 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 3: after it was made very clear that Mark Marquez wasn't 86 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 3: going to accept going to Pramac and force his way 87 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: into the factory team, so he rage quit them to 88 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 3: sign with a Prillia on the post Mugillo test in 89 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 3: one day. That whole deal went down. Rewind a few 90 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: years and he's used some loophole to get out of katm. 91 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 3: There's only so many places you could annoy in this 92 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 3: paddock because there's only so many people you could actually 93 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 3: ride for. So to think that there could be some 94 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 3: situation here where they're using some sort of legal ease 95 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: and something buried deep in a clause in a contract 96 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 3: to get him out of a Prillier, it's one we 97 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 3: certainly didn't see coming because this relationship hasn't even had 98 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 3: a chance to be good or bad. It's just been 99 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 3: nothing because he hasn't ridden the bike. But then you 100 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 3: start to think to yourself, this is just me being cynical, 101 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 3: and you know, possibly a little sensible occasionally, but what 102 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 3: I'm thinking is okay, so where else would he go. 103 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 3: We're running out manufacturers here. The obvious one for me 104 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 3: is Honda, as in I nearly said repsol holder, at 105 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 3: which point you would have been forced to take it 106 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 3: a shot. But the factory Honda team Luca Marine's out 107 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 3: of contract at the end of this season. And it 108 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 3: was really interesting that after and you would have noticed 109 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 3: this after Lamon, when Joe and Zycho won that race, 110 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 3: he made it very clear that he would love to 111 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 3: step up to that main factory team. And yes, we 112 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: know he's getting a factory bike at else are, but 113 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 3: there's nothing like writing for the factory hon the team, 114 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 3: both now and then maybe in the future as we 115 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 3: look to twenty twenty seven rule reset, Honda has as 116 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: good of a chance as of anybody is getting this right. 117 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 3: I don't think it's much of a coincidence that one 118 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: day after Zako said, oh look, I'd really like to 119 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: get my backside on that factory Honda in the future. 120 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: This story breaks from some well connected Spanish journalists on 121 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 3: the Martin camp, because if Martin's going anywhere, it's pretty 122 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 3: clear that he will want to go to the factory 123 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 3: on the team. Maybe Hedgy's bets for twenty twenty seven 124 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: and so on. But I don't think that those two 125 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 3: stories were in isolation. I think they were very connected. 126 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: And to me, that's go on, keep going. 127 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: No, No, I wanted to just say what I'm finding 128 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: really interesting, and you're talking about Honda here and Martin 129 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: and I'm trying to connect with Dodds and something that 130 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if listeners know that you've pointed out, Matt, 131 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: is the fact that Pedro Costa and Jugem Martin are 132 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 1: managed by the same person. Those rumors, all those rumors 133 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: coming about with Pedro Costa potentially going to HRC Honda. 134 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 2: And then Tom Crack got thrown in there. 135 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: So that's what I just thought. It was funny that 136 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: you were saying, Johem Martin could potentially go to Honda, 137 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: because what about Pedro a Costa. 138 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 3: Then it sounds very much like a Costa has his 139 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: heart set on trying to get on to do Catty 140 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 3: and the only one of those that's available at the 141 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: end of this season is at VR forty six with 142 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: Franco Morbidelli because he's out of contract at the end 143 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 3: of this season. Now, the Morbid Deli one's interesting for 144 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 3: me in that I think his stock was pretty low 145 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: last year after the Parmak experience. Obviously, is hugely injured 146 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: at the beginning of last year, didn't really get a 147 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 3: great run at and then even when he got back 148 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 3: wasn't particularly good. Of course, you have to remember his 149 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 3: teammate won the World Championship last year and Morbidelli had 150 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: one podium, so there's a huge gap between those two. Now, 151 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: theoretically there's a VR forty sixty catty available for twenty 152 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 3: twenty six. That would mean that Valentino Rossi would have 153 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 3: to wave goodbye to a writer who is a protege, 154 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 3: a member of the academy who he's brought through, assuming 155 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 3: that Costa can worm his way out of a contract 156 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: with KTM, because he's contracted with KTM for twenty twenty six, 157 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 3: just as Martinez contracted for Prilier in twenty twenty six. 158 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 3: So I wrote earlier this week that these contracts seem 159 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 3: to be you know, they're basically a marriage of convenience 160 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: until they're not, and you know there'll be one party 161 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 3: or another that wants to get themselves out of it. 162 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: To my mind, Renda, there's a huge thing here in 163 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: that I don't expect that the balance of power to 164 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 3: shift too much in motor GP for the rest of 165 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 3: this year and next year while we've got this rule set, 166 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 3: it's a Ducati Championship and you need to be on 167 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: a Ducadi twenty twenty seven. Is this really enticing? Hard 168 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 3: reset new engines, less arrow, new tire supply. There's so 169 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: much changing for twenty twenty seven, and so being on 170 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: the right bike at the right time at the start 171 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 3: of a rule set. There's a lot of educated guess 172 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 3: work going on here. Everyone's trying to maneuver themselves into 173 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 3: the correct position. I thought next year's rider market would 174 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 3: be nuts and this years would be quiet. But to 175 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 3: have the reigning world champion who has not scored a 176 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 3: point decide that he wants out of a Prilier six 177 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 3: races into a World Championship, which just shows you that 178 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 3: the silly season only ever gets silly. I just will 179 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: be expected to be a bit more sensible than something 180 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 3: like this comes up. 181 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: Well, let's look about the silly, silly, silly season. 182 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: Because I went on social media briefly on my journey 183 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: over and then someone's made a post about heko Bernaya 184 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: potentially going to factory Yamaha. 185 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's probably people are adding two and 186 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 3: two together and coming up with five on that one. 187 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 3: That sounds a littill a bit unlikely to me. We 188 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 3: know that it's not been the greatest season for Peco. 189 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 3: I think I'm not surprised that Mark Marquez has got 190 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 3: into that team and done what he has done, but 191 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 3: Peco has not been himself this season. We also know 192 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: the way Peco works in that he's not someone who 193 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 3: jumps at shadows. He's pretty methodical in the way that 194 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 3: he chips away at these things, and so I can't 195 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 3: imagine yet. I mean, you never say never with these things, 196 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 3: but I think that's probably a bridge too far yet. 197 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 3: I think the interesting part, just slightly backtracking to the 198 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 3: Martin thing, is that most people seem to think that 199 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: he's trying to get himself to Honda as opposed to Yamaha. Now, 200 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 3: of course Pramak, who ran his World championship team a 201 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 3: Ducati a running that secondary Yamaha team these days. I 202 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 3: don't think Yamaha is looking for a juge Martin because 203 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 3: they have a guy who, all things being equal, is 204 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 3: one of the best spots two or three guys on 205 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: the grid and Fabio Couaateuro. We've seen that these past 206 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 3: couple of Grand Prix at Herreath and at Lamont, that 207 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 3: Quauro doesn't have a bike to fight for a World 208 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: championship yet. But what these last couple of rounds have 209 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 3: said to me, and I'm sure you're in agreement here 210 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: if Yamaha ever come up with a bike that can 211 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 3: fight decatty, but now are in twenty twenty seven, they've 212 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 3: already got the rider. He is so so good. I 213 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: don't think his talent has dipped one bit. And we've 214 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: seen what happens if he has the best bike on 215 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 3: the grid or nearly the best bike on the grid. 216 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 3: We know what happens. He wonted world championship doing this 217 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty one, and I don't think he's got 218 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: any worse since sin So Yamaha's got their kingpin, They've 219 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 3: got their shining light, and everyone else needs to sit 220 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: in line behind them. I'm not sure Yamaha would really 221 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 3: want a Martine type, but Honda right now are crying 222 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: out for like that super A list rider, and you know, 223 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: the Acosta stuff is cooled with them. As you mentioned before, 224 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: they're to me the one factory that doesn't have that 225 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 3: genuine a lister right now that they could do that 226 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: in the future. So look twenty seven. To me, I 227 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 3: think every decision that happens between now and twenty seven 228 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 3: needs to be considered with what happens when the rules change. 229 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 3: But man, I did not expect to be having a 230 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 3: ju Hey Brtsine contract conversation. Part of me is like, 231 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: could you just finish a race first, please, and then 232 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 3: well you can actually discuss this because he hasn't done 233 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 3: that yet. 234 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, when like it first got announced, I was totally 235 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: mind blowing, as everybody else was. 236 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: When you're hear in these rumors of him. 237 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: Potentially having tortill of teens and whatnot, and then you 238 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: look at what happened last year with Pramak, Like you said, 239 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: his trust also in Elisia Spargrou, I think had helped 240 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: him meet possibly make that decision. I don't know the 241 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: ins and outs. I'm just assuming here, but you saw 242 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: that whole situation go out. Then also Alisia Sparger jumping 243 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: to Honda as their test writer. Is it like the 244 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: mouse following the cat once again? 245 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: Or the caple in the mouse possibly. I mean it 246 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 3: was funny with the espigro thing, like we were talking 247 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 3: about that at the time. I remember him because he 248 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 3: was like, he was a Prillians captain, he was the 249 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 3: leader of the ship, he was the guy. And then 250 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 3: he announced that catalog you look, this season will be 251 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 3: my last. And I think most people thought, well, he'll 252 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 3: probably just be a test writer for a Prillier then, 253 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: because he's a cat and he's the guy that's been 254 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 3: steering this shit for so long. And then a few 255 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: weeks later, I'll be a test writer for HRC. Now, okay, 256 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 3: hsc's probably got a bigger budget for a test rider 257 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 3: than a prillierdo. But part of me is like, that's 258 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: a bit weird because after you've done all you can 259 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 3: do to effectively get someone like Jujgey Martine is in 260 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 3: as your successor, and for people that don't know, there's 261 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 3: almost like a there's like a big brother little brother 262 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 3: relationship with Elashan and Jorge and that Elishi's fiercely protective 263 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 3: of and has always tried to guide. Hey, they've been 264 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 3: very close for a long long while. It's almost like 265 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 3: they've related their siblings in that sense, so he you know, 266 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: obviously what happened at Magello last year, Martine realized he 267 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 3: wasn't going to be in the factory Dakati team Espago 268 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 3: was hugely influential and getting that a Prillier deal over 269 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 3: the line at full stop, but getting it over the 270 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 3: line so quickly. You might remember, that deal was announced 271 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 3: on the Monday of the test, before Mark Marquez had 272 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 3: even been confirmed at the factory da Catti team. They 273 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 3: actually stole their thunder. They jumped the gun on that one. 274 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: And so the fact that Aleish then turned around fairly 275 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 3: soon after that and said, oh, by the way, I'm 276 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: going to be a test writer for HRC next year, 277 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 3: that was interesting. That was a little bit of a 278 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 3: bread crumb for me in that if he's got jes ear, 279 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 3: which I'm sure he does, he's probably saying, hey, look 280 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 3: like there's some good stuff happening here. You might want 281 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 3: to see if you can get yourself on this. And 282 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 3: I mean, we're again, we're sort of stitching unrelated stories 283 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 3: together here to come up with a potential outcome. But 284 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 3: that would not surprise me in the slightest if he's 285 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: been given the heads up as to like, look, this 286 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 3: Honda thing's really starting to gain momentum, and we've seen 287 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 3: it this year. I mean the fact that Honda won 288 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 3: that race at Lamon and they're not just cast a 289 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 3: drift at the back in this sort of category sad 290 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 3: category of one anymore. That's not where they are. They're 291 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 3: clearly getting better, probably not to the extent of yamahat yet, 292 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 3: but yet it's the keyword, like it really feels a 293 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 3: lot Honda's coming and they have such resource and this 294 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 3: history of getting things right with big rule changes that 295 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 3: if you were going to put your money on someone, 296 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: all things being equal, for twenty twenty seven of the 297 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 3: non docaddy teams to get it right, I'd be putting 298 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 3: my money in possibly some of yours, on Honda for 299 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: twenty twenty seven because they just have the pedigree with 300 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 3: this sort of stuff, don't they. 301 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: Oh for sure? 302 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: Like you said, Honda, when you think of Moto GP, 303 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: thinking back into the nineties, we're doing and Career and 304 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: all those guys is such a staple. 305 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 2: In Moto GP history. 306 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: But also is Yamaha, right, So it sucks to see 307 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: those Japanese manufacturers down. But this season it's been so 308 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: much better having Honda winning La morn. We've had Fabio 309 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: fighting for the podiums, but it's only just like one 310 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: writer here or one writer there. It's not the whole 311 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: manufacturers constantly up the front. That's what I think we 312 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: need to see more of. So what you said about 313 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: having that alien for HRC Honda, I think is what 314 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: they need, because obviously that's what Marquez was for them, 315 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: and that's kind of what they've always had, is that 316 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: one writer who's taken the whole team them, apart from 317 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: when it was Danny Pidrosi who was constantly there in 318 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: the second place. But let's go to Yamaha really quickly, 319 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: because you wrote an interesting piece on Jack Miller. We 320 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: know that Jack has only got a one year contract 321 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: that is up at the end, and it seems like 322 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: he's kind of been the star of the show for 323 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: Pramaha because Miguela Lavera once again got caught in an 324 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: incident that wasn't his fault out with injuries only just 325 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: starting to come back. But Jack, as we've said so 326 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: many times, he shows those glimpses, those flashes of brilliance. 327 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: He gets to the ceiling straight away. He's been constantly 328 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: there with Fabrio Corderraro. What's the latest with Jack? What's 329 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: the room is all? Where do you think he's going. 330 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: To go for the next year. 331 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 3: I'm just crossing off Pramaha off my podcast being Go 332 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 3: Kard because you've managed to tick that one for me, 333 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: so thank you. Look the police that I wrote about 334 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: Jack this week was interesting in that in his so 335 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 3: he had that fantastic fifth place in Texas in the 336 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 3: Grand Prix. There he's brilliant, Like Pramak were just absolutely 337 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 3: joyous about that. Gino Bosaw was saying, like fifth for 338 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 3: us in this stage of a really really new projects, 339 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 3: like a victory, like it's an amazing result. Jack's not 340 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 3: scored a point since then. So two non scores in Qatar, 341 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 3: two non scores in Spain, two non scores in France. 342 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 3: Now some of these look the France Grand Prix. He 343 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: will absolutely be kicking himself even now when we get 344 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 3: to Silveston this week, because he was eleven seconds up 345 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 3: the road on the right tires, on the right strategy 346 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 3: from the guy who won the race at the time 347 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: when he went down, and that's one that's absolutely slipped 348 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 3: through his fingers probably should have won that race and 349 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: podium at a minimum. There's also been some seriously weird 350 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 3: things that have happened to Jack and this run of 351 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: six straight now zeros for him. Had that really weird 352 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 3: tire vibration thing in Qatar that every time we went 353 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 3: into a left hand corner it basically tried to throw 354 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 3: him off and eventually did it turn two like a 355 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 3: sort of pathetic slow speed crash at turned two. And 356 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 3: then the one that got me was remember what happened 357 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 3: to him at Harrath where a piece of the bike's 358 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 3: fairing came loose and actually sliced one of the wiring 359 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 3: cables on the bike, and all of a sudden and 360 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 3: it's like, oh, this thing's running on three cylinders and 361 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 3: going nowhere fast. So he's had some Only Jack Miller 362 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 3: could have these sorts of DNF retirements. But the thing 363 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 3: that I thought this week is that you know, this 364 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: time last year, we were going, oh, this Katim thing's 365 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 3: not going well. A cost as a star in the making. 366 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:18,959 Speaker 3: He kind of felt like he was a dead man 367 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 3: walking last year, and he was in the end. But 368 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,719 Speaker 3: it made me dig back through Jack's career this is 369 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: the So he's got nineteen points after the first six 370 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 3: rounds of a season. It's the worst six rounds of 371 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 3: a season he's had since twenty sixteen. That's how far 372 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 3: back it's been since Jack scored so few points in 373 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 3: the first six rounds of a season, because it crossed 374 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 3: the sprint in the Grand Prix. In these last three rounds, 375 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 3: he hasn't scored a point now. This time last year 376 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 3: he was scoring more than this, not a lot more, 377 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 3: but he was scoring some more. But we always felt that, look, 378 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 3: the kat V's thing's done, and it got to the 379 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 3: point where, I mean, he was on this podcast saying that, 380 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 3: you know, I thought it was over until the whole 381 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 3: Pramak Yamaha thing gave him a lifeline. He was the 382 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 3: twenty second and final guy signed for this year really 383 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: late in the day, and so it looked pretty tenuous 384 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 3: there for a while. I would actually suggest that despite 385 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,719 Speaker 3: this run of form that he's been on, I actually 386 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 3: feel he's in a pretty good position to retain his 387 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 3: seat for next year, not necessarily for what he's doing 388 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 3: on the scoreboard. I think you mentioned that before about 389 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 3: him getting to the ceiling of a bike really fast, 390 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 3: we know he's done that. Yamaha have been nothing but 391 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 3: positive about the impact he's having behind the scenes with 392 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 3: the testing of new parts and really driving the project forward. 393 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 3: Because we forget with Jack because he acts like he's 394 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 3: eighteen a lot of the time he's thirty years old. 395 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 3: He's so experienced now because he's had time with Honda 396 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 3: and Ducati and KTM. He's always the perfect guy to 397 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 3: have when you've got a new project and you want 398 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 3: to know, as Yamaha, what the rest of them are 399 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 3: doing and what they're doing, Well, jack'st well, I've ridden 400 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: this bike, and I've ridden this bike, and I've ridden 401 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 3: this bike, and I've been in Motor GP for ten years. 402 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 3: He's a team player. He's a really good in that regard. 403 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 3: So there's that aspect to it. And then my thought 404 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 3: process on this is, if it's not Jack, then who 405 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 3: are you going to get that's going to do a 406 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 3: better job with that job description than what Jack is doing. 407 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: We know Pramac's got that Moto two team with Tony 408 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 3: Abellino and Nissan Guivara. They're not ready for Moto GP 409 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 3: yet possibly at all. Why on earth would you bring 410 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 3: them in for the final year of a rule set 411 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 3: that's going in the bin at the end of twenty six. Anyway, 412 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 3: there's absolutely no point doing that. We know Yabaha is 413 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 3: developing the V four behind the scenes. Jack's britten V 414 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 3: four's and his previous addresses. He's the perfect guy at 415 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 3: this time to try and bring that project forward. And yeah, 416 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 3: look the points Tally's not looking great at the moment, 417 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 3: and he said it himself after all the once. I 418 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 3: just need to start getting some points here because he's 419 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 3: not been slow. He's made some mistakes like France, he 420 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 3: was unlucky like he was in Spain. He does need 421 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 3: to score some points and Silverston's been a good track 422 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 3: for him in the past. But I think he's under 423 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 3: less threat this year year than he was last year. 424 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,479 Speaker 3: I'd be super surprised if Premak Yamaha didn't sign him 425 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 3: for next year. 426 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: Well, we'll just have to keep our eyes in is 427 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: peeled because the silly season rumors are going. 428 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: To continue NonStop. 429 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: If anything like last year was to go off, I 430 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: think this year it's going to be like who's. 431 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 2: Going where with this person? This person says this. 432 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: So once we had the official announcement of everything, we 433 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: will let you guys know asap. But you mentioned Silverstone. 434 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 1: Obviously that is the British Rumprix this weekend. Let's move 435 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: on to that because before we hit record, we were 436 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: talking about last year and how cool it was being 437 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: the seventy fifth anniversary of Moto GP retro round. Those 438 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: are the cool flashback of throwback memories. I'm trying to think. 439 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: The Yamaha one for me was just incredible color schemes. 440 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: But last year's winner, we were talking about this as well. 441 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,479 Speaker 1: A name of Ashanini came out of nowhere. He won 442 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: the Sprint and the Grand Prix, right, yes he did. 443 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 3: He's one of those I reckon he has. Certainly when 444 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 3: he was at Tocatti, you have three weekends a year 445 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 3: where you look at him and go, how's this guy 446 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 3: not won three World Championships like he looks like the 447 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 3: best writer in it by a mile. And there was 448 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 3: nothing about either of those wins that he had at 449 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 3: Silverston last year that was about luck or you know, 450 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 3: taking advantage of someone else's misfortune. He was just so 451 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 3: quick the entire weekend, and then and a being and 452 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 3: a who disappeared for a bit, and then he won 453 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 3: at me Massado and he disappeared for a bit, and 454 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 3: that's just the way that he tends to roll. But 455 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 3: the weirdest thing about that is that, so you dig 456 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 3: back through the history books with Silverston, this event makes 457 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 3: absolutely no sense simply because the last ten times we've 458 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: had a Grand Prix at Silveston, we've had ten different 459 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 3: winners in the past ten years, so no repeat winners 460 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 3: and ten guys have won one race each in the 461 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 3: past ten times that we've been to Silverston. So you'll 462 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 3: be doing well to remember some of these. But you 463 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 3: think back and go, my goodness, like, how have we 464 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 3: got to a point where this has become literally the 465 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: least predictable Grand Prix of the year, And you go 466 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 3: back and look at some of these. Elasiauspo won there 467 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 3: in twenty three, is one of the second win he 468 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 3: had for a Prilier quatro in his twenty twenty one 469 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 3: championship year. Alex Rinz being Mark Marques and that awesome 470 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 3: last lap by about half a wheel twenty nineteen, Mark 471 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 3: comes very close to winning here but doesn't. Maverick Vignalez's 472 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 3: first Motor GP win was here. Suzuki back in twenty 473 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 3: was at fifteen, I remembory. One of Rossi's last wins 474 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 3: was here. It's bizarre. So I'm just looking at this now. 475 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 3: The last time we had repeat winners at Silverston twenty 476 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 3: twelve twenty thirteen Jorge Lorenzo. Nobody's won consecutive races since, 477 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 3: and we've had ten different guys win Grand Prix, so 478 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 3: it's become this really unpredictable race. But I'm so glad 479 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: you started this podcast with the weather because I was 480 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 3: going to ask you for a weather update, which makes 481 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 3: terrible podcasting, but it's interesting for me now. It's not 482 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,239 Speaker 3: summer yet in the UK. I know the English. The 483 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 3: English summer is one of those things that you need 484 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 3: to stick air quotes around, obviously, but this is the 485 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 3: earliest this race has ever been held. I actually duck 486 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 3: back through this because this is normally August or September, right, 487 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 3: so you've got half a chance of the weather actually 488 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 3: being halfway decent. So I looked at the forecast of 489 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 3: the weekend. I hope you've packed most of your wardrobe 490 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 3: because it seems like you're going to need it. It's 491 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 3: going to be all over the place. 492 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: It's currently close to mid day here, and I reckon 493 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: it's about twelve degrees. And you know, a weeks ago 494 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: they were saying England had this heat wave go through 495 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: and it was like thirty degrees and whatnot, and now 496 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: it's twelve and freezing. But I also had a look 497 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: at the weather and I think we were in for 498 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 1: some wet weather track action, which I think is going 499 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: to be good because it'll even up the playing field 500 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: because Silverstone, as we know, vast circuit, the long straights 501 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: that it has, it's fast flowing, so automatically you think 502 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: Mark Marquez, right, But if we do have that wet weather, 503 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: we might be in for a bit more interesting qualifying 504 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: where hopefully we'll see a Fabio or a Jack or 505 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: a different manufacturer at the front and not just Mark 506 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: Marquez who could possibly break his whole street. 507 00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 2: Shall we say? 508 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 3: It's also super interesting is that it's pretty grim for 509 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 3: us back here in Australia because we've got a one 510 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 3: am Sunday boarding sprint. It's a four pm local time 511 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 3: sprint start at Silverstone. Now, given we're not in summer, 512 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 3: like I know, it's dark at five o'clock. But you 513 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 3: mentioned like twelve degrees, what's the track temp going to 514 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 3: be like, particularly if it's wet, that sprint could be absolute, 515 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 3: you know, survival of the fittest rather than the fastest. 516 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,479 Speaker 3: Because that's pretty late in the day obviously, you know 517 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 3: why it's at that time of the day to keep 518 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 3: the crowd there and so on and so forth. But 519 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 3: a four pm sprint, I remember when we talked about 520 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: this at Philip Island last year. You remember when the 521 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 3: race at Philip Island was always quite late in the afternoon, 522 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 3: the actual Grand Prix. You'd get deep into the race 523 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 3: and any of the right hand corners at Philip Island 524 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 3: and be like trying to turn on ice, like turn 525 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: four and turn ten because it's coursed to five in 526 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 3: the afternoon. The temperatures ten degrees cold are at the 527 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 3: end of the race, and it was at the start. 528 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 3: So that sprint being at four pm on whether that 529 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 3: we can't really trust. That's super sketchy for me. But 530 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,719 Speaker 3: you mentioned Marquez high speed. Look, I totally agree with you. 531 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 3: I can't believe he's only ever won this race once. 532 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,959 Speaker 3: But then we're saying that about katar Were a few 533 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 3: weeks ago, and well look what happened there. But one 534 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 3: to watch for me, and simply because of what they've 535 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 3: done the past couple of races. Yamaha tested that new 536 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 3: engine and a lot of new parts after her wrath, 537 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 3: and the engine is supposed to have some more straight 538 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 3: line grunt and this is a track that the Yamaha 539 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 3: has eaten up in the past. I quite watched Corotturero 540 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 3: fly this weekend if the weather is. If the weather is, 541 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 3: it's of dry and a bit more benign I suppose. 542 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 3: But we mentioned Jack Miller before, would not surprise me 543 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,479 Speaker 3: in the slightest with that upgraded Yamaha with a bit 544 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 3: more top end, and particularly if the weather's sketchy. I 545 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 3: don't think he's going to let a second opportunity in 546 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 3: those sketchy conditions slip if we get one of them. 547 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 3: So it might be that he hasn't scored a bunch 548 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 3: of points for a while and then maybe on for 549 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: a big one at some point over the course of 550 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 3: the weekend. Because you look at that forecast and it's 551 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 3: not it's not Queensland weather. Shall we say it's. 552 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 2: Not Queensland weather? Says the Melbourne who says it's not Queensland. 553 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 3: Well, well, yeah, exactly. 554 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: So yeah, Jack Miller. I agree. 555 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: I think if the weather's hit and miss like it 556 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: is planned to be, then I definitely think we'll see 557 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: Jack Miller out for redemption from the French Grand Prix. 558 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 2: But another Aussie in the lower category who I know. 559 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: Is going to be very strong at this week and 560 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: that silverstone no matter the weather is Joel Kelso I 561 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: really believe that this circuit is going to suit him 562 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: to a tee And we know that Joel he's looking 563 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: to move up from Moto three to Moto two, make 564 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: that progression. What do you think for Joel going into 565 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 1: this weekend? 566 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 3: You know we've talked about this in the past. It's like, ah, 567 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 3: if you could just get himself to the front of 568 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 3: a Grand Prix. He's always in the league group, but 569 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 3: he's always off the back of the league group, Like 570 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 3: it never really feels like he's going to be in 571 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 3: contention for a Grand Prix win. And then you look 572 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 3: at what he did in La mom for ninety eight 573 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 3: percent of that race was absolutely perfect. It feels to 574 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 3: me like there is a first win that's coming and 575 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: coming real soon, which is obviously going to help his 576 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 3: chances of being able to step up. But The thing 577 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 3: that I like about his season is that in the 578 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 3: past you'd say, Okay, this is great that he's up there, 579 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 3: but does he belog up there? I think we've got 580 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 3: that question answered now. Absolutely does Third in the championship 581 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 3: wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if this is a 582 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 3: good race for him. It's a track that certainly suits 583 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 3: his style. But of course, the thing for me this 584 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 3: weekend is that with the way that the Sunday timetable is, 585 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 3: they've brought Motor GPS the middle race of the three 586 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 3: this weekend because they're trying to avoid a direct clash 587 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 3: with the Monaco F one GP, so Moto three is 588 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 3: basically in the bright lights headline spot to cap the 589 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 3: day's action at Silveston on Sunday. So if we got 590 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 3: to hear the Australian national anthem as the last anthem 591 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 3: that we hear on a Sunday, you'll be there for that. 592 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 3: You'll enjoy that. 593 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: I would love to see that. 594 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 1: Imagine if we can have a Ossie National anthem across 595 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: all three with hopefully for the ages also in motors through. 596 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: But we've got another Aussie, Jacob Rulstone, coming back from 597 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: his injury. 598 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 2: We spoke about it the last one. 599 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 1: You know, Jacob, technically this is like what he's third 600 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 1: race for the season, so he's sunning his whole season 601 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: fresh this circuit, this track. Do you think this is 602 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: something where Jacob is going to feel a bit more 603 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: confident as he's progressing through or do you think because 604 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: it's that fast flowing nature, he might struggle a bit. 605 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm kind of on the fence with Jacob at the moment. 606 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a little bit the same because I thought 607 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 3: that there was some really good signs at her Eth 608 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 3: and then like Lamon was a bit disappointed, he was 609 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 3: disappointed with Lemon, So yeah, I'm not sure. Like it's 610 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 3: almost like you mentioned before, like he is so much 611 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 3: at the start of the season with the injury, we 612 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 3: almost like need more evidence to draw upon at the moment, 613 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 3: like either extreme is in play this weekend, But I'm 614 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 3: not really sure we've got a form line on where 615 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 3: he's at yet. I mean, the high points have been good, 616 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 3: but there's an inconsistency with what's going on at the moment, 617 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: which makes sense because he's kind of almost just come 618 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 3: out of a pre season after a pretty serious injury, 619 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 3: so it's almost like we need more data and more 620 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 3: evidence to base an opinion, you know, but look fingers crossed, 621 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 3: he goes, well, there the flowing nature of this track. 622 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,479 Speaker 3: I find this is a track that the Aussies generally do 623 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 3: quite well at. It's like a bit of an old 624 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 3: school open track like and particularly for Moto three bikes, 625 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 3: Like there's a you know, there's some pretty amazing corners 626 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 3: around this track where they're just completely gassed up, So 627 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: super fun to watch Moto three here. Hopefully he can 628 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 3: I think comes down to Saturday, like if he can qualify, 629 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 3: get himself into Q two, have a decent starting spot 630 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 3: so he doesn't get left behind by the pack, and 631 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 3: then we know that there'll be a big pack there 632 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 3: because there always is, and hopefully he can be on 633 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:35,479 Speaker 3: the back of that. 634 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 2: All right, Matt, you know what we do every preview, 635 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 2: who's going to win? Who's your call for this weekend. 636 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to go first, and I'm going to go 637 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: really out of the box here because I think it's 638 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: just that sort of circuit that I'm going to say 639 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: mark markers. But I know I've taken a real risk 640 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: with that one. But what's your call for this weekend 641 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: Moto GP? Who do you reckon for poll? Who do 642 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: you reckon for the win? 643 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 3: It will be Fabio Couaaterero again because I think he 644 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: is capable of doing absolutely crazy things over one lap 645 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 3: that probably aren't repeatable over twenty as far as the 646 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 3: wind goes. I've got to I mentioned that Marquez gitar 647 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 3: stat from twenty fourteen, which is the last time. Twenty 648 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 3: fourteen was last time he won Silverston, the only time 649 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 3: he's won Silverstone. And you look at the points table 650 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 3: at the moment, the fact that he's twenty two points ahead, 651 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 3: it feels like it should be more, and we know 652 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 3: that he's had a couple of sort of self inflicted wounds. 653 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 3: What's weird about this season is it feels like a 654 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 3: season that Marquez has dominated. But the last four Grand 655 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 3: Prix have had four different winners. You think about it, 656 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 3: so Zarco and France, Alex Marquez in Spain, Mark won 657 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 3: the previous round in Qatar, and Pecovanhi one in Texas. 658 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 3: Because Mark has thrown it down the road. So I 659 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 3: think this is a weekend where Mark Stampsy's authority reminds 660 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: everyone who's really the boss of this thing. We know 661 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 3: that he's been unbeatable on Saturdays. I think that translates 662 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 3: into Sundays. It doesn't seem right to me that someone 663 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: of his talent can have an a eleven year gap between 664 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 3: winning it such a prestigious, notable circuit like Silverstone is. 665 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 3: I think he's back on the top step this weekend. 666 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: I see. I called it as well, Mark Marquez. Of course. 667 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 3: We'll both be wrong or we'll both be right, so 668 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 3: at least we get out this right. 669 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 2: We all know Monday when we come back on the pod. 670 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: But Matt and all the listeners, I'm going to keep 671 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: you guys updated on socials because, as I said, I 672 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: am here on the ground at Silverstone all we can 673 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: so do keep up to date with me on the 674 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: socials at Fox Motorsport everywhere, or if you want to 675 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: read all the latest MotoGP news, you can read MAT's 676 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: articles on Fox sport dot com, dot au, Forward slash Motorsport.
