Can Pedro Acosta finally get his first win? Should they bring back warm up for Moto2 and Moto3? Can Nicolo Bulega score points in Portimao? Can WorldSBK riders succeed in MotoGP, and what is the history? Predictions? Win/Lose?

Adam and Neil are on the ground in Malaysia and call-up Dave to chew through some of the heroics and hiccups of the 20th round of the season. After discussing the shocking start to the day with the Moto3 accident the guys also speak about Alex Marquez’s third win, Pecco’s puncture, KTM’s bounceback and the ongoing Honda revival. Plus, ‘Moments’, ‘Hire & Fires’ and ‘Grades’.

Rain, rain, rain. A soggy day at the Sepang International Circuit didn’t quite dampen the enthusiasm for the 20th Grand Prix of the year. Adam and Neil are joined by the charm of Renita Vermeulen to talk about what was said and heard on Thursday as well as Australian GP residue.

As the final round of the WorldSBK dawned it seemed like a foregone conclusion. There was little doubt that Toprak Razgatlioglu would be crowned for a third time as champion. Nicolo Bulega had proven to be an admirable rival but ultimately Toprak would have too much for his rival...that was the plan at least! The reality was quite different and ultimately Sunday's Superbike action was the flashpoint of the season. Steve English and Gordon Ritchie guide you through the hows and whys of Spanish Round of WorldSBK

Surprising, riveting, overdue? The 35th Australian Grand Prix provided another notable episode of MotoGP. Adam and Dave down another coffee and call Neil who’s wrapped up against the Phillip Island winds to talk about round nineteen of the season.

No Marquez, no Martin, no Maverick but arguably the most inviting and open palette for the Australian Grand Prix this weekend. Apart from the weather. Adam, David and Neil (on the ground in Victoria) record their thoughts and opinions in the wake of the rider debriefs and ongoings at ‘PI’ on Thursday.

After a busy weekend in Portugal Steve and Gordo break down the action from Estoril. As usual in 2025 Toprak Razgatlioglu and Nicolo Bulega shared the spoils. The duo will bring their title fight down to the final round of the year this weekend at Jerez and we look at how on Sunday it seemed that everyone had their own narrative to push... There was lots to talk about. Hard racing, weight ballast petitions, the rider and crew chief market and much more. Over the course of an hour we still couldn't cover all the news so check out Patreon.com/PaddockPassPodcast for our Paddock Notes show on Thursday to hear even more from inside the WorldSBK paddock

Favourite Phillip Island memories, the state of MotoGP without Marc Marquez (who can possible win in Australia?), thoughts on the series’ best racetrack and more as Adam, David and Neil anticipate round 19 of 2025.

If you love a surprise, the Indonesian MotoGP round at Mandalika was the grand prix weekend for you. A rookie winner, the favourite taking the champion out, and the man who dominated Motegi sinking without a trace. Why did Mandalika turn out this way? Neil, Steve, and David talk you through a tricky track, Fermin Aldeguer's triumph, Marco Bezzecchi's moment of madness, Pecco Bagnaia's depths of despair and much more.

Neil and David are joined by MotoGP commentator and presenter Louis Suddaby, who dials in from the media centre at the Pertamina Mandalika Circuit, to talk through the morning after the weekend before. What's Pecco Bagnaia's strategy for this weekend now that he's proven his mettle once more? Where will newly crowned champion Marc Marquez find his motivation now the title is wrapped up? Is Miguel Oliveira's MotoGP future really over even if he's off to WorldSBK in 2026? All these questions are discussed plus insights on the Fabios (Quartararo and Di Giannantonio) and our ones to watch this weekend.

On today's WorldSBK show we'll review the action from the Aragon Round of WorldSBK where the wins were split but the action was intense! Toprak Razgatlioglu and Nicolo Bulega have been the story of the season but what do Steve and Gordo think of their title battle? Is it exciting or inevitable? Both of our Paddock Insiders weight in on the topic while also looking forward to future regulations and whether this weekend showed us the impact of harder tyres on the series. Having made his full-time debut in at Kyalami in 1999 this weekend also marked Gordo's 750th WorldSBK race start. It's a great achievement and one that the paddock were keen to mark. Alex Lowes called Gordo a "legend" for all that he's achieved while Gordo questioned Steve's sanity to have taken the time to count up his starts! On Sunday the debriefs Jonathan Rea and Lowes handed Gordo a replica helmet signed by the grid to mark the occassion and the Scotsman was, for the first time, lost for words!

Ducati delight. 2025 is officially sealed and the narrative locked. But the race order and podium finishers might surprise a few. Adam, David and Neil offer their thoughts on the Japanese GP, the milestone and the moments.

Adam, David and Neil are European based for round seventeen of 2025 MotoGP but still have opinions and news after the first day of media work and debriefs in Japan. Join the crew on Patreon for further daily shows on Friday and Saturday.

Konnichiwa Motegi! MotoGP goes overseas for the next stint of the 2025 calendar with Japan up first. Adam, David and Neil talk about their favourite Japanese GP riders and memories, offer predictions for round 17 of 22 and also talk to Gresini’s Sporting Director Michele Masini about Alex Marquez and a sterling 2025 for the team.

Adam and Neil (plus Dani, Freddie and Kevin) comment on MotoGP’s freshly installed Hall of Fame; launched with a swish ceremony in Rimini last week. We discuss the criteria, the need, and the purposes of the new initiative as well as hear from a few of the ‘Famers themselves.

A war of brands and limits pushed at a sunny and packed Misano. Adam, David and Neil raise microphones in the media centre at MWC to talk about the approaching finale of a startling (if expected) comeback narrative in 2025 but also a few other tasty observations in San Marino.

There will be a new howl in MotoGP this weekend for round sixteen and the San Marino Grand Prix. Yamaha at least unveiled their V4 M1, and the Japanese firm’s big bid to return to glory will appear for the first time at the circuit where they won the title in 2021. Bastianini and MotoE news also discussed as Adam and Neil are at last joined by a tardy David for the first podcast of the meeting.

Magny-Cours has always been a favourite track for Toprak Razgatlioglu but having dominated the French Round of WorldSBK the Turkish star now has one hand on his third World Championship. Nicolo Bulega was his closest challenger but in reality it wasn't close last weekend. A triple podium for Bimota, Jonathan Rea in the podium fight, new riders on the way...there's a lot to talk about in WorldSBK!

They did it again. Some tangible tension and some incident and accident to chat about this evening as Adam, David and Neil go through their views and opinions on the Catalan Grand Prix. Ratings, ‘Hire and Fire’, ‘Moments’ from the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya and more.

The WorldSBK paddock has plenty to discuss in France. Whether it's Jonathan Rea's retirement, Danilo Petrucci to BMW or the rest of the rider market. There's also what happens with engineers next year and the chance to sit down with Rea to talk about his career and the relationships he's built up over the years. Alex Lowes was teammate to Rea at Kawasaki and he joins to talk about what made JR special while Toprak Razgatlioglu talks about why he's always looked up to Rea....
