Episode description

MotoGP announced new rules about testing for injured riders, as well as grid procedures and penalties effective immediately starting with the FrenchGP. I analyze the changes and tell you what I think on this Patreon-first episode of the show!

The Rundown:
  • The Injured Rider Testing Rule - whether it works as written, and why I think going a step further might actually make the rule easier to implement
  • New grid procedures - simple and straightforward, but can Marc still manipulate them?
  • 2027 Rule Package Testing - everyone agrees to make it fair. For now. But it is most certainly not a testing ban for all of 2025
  • The 'Hair Rule' - something must have happened, but who knows what
This was a Patreon-first episode released BEFORE the grid madness in the FrenchGP, but the opinions still very much apply. Join in the conversation - comment on Facebook, or the Motoweek Reddit Sub.
