Oxley Bom MotoGP podcast

Sometimes we get by with a little help from our friends. Case in point: Marc Marquez, taking first place with the help of Martin and Bezzecchi. The latter's help was especially unconventional, as the Bez managed to get himself suspended for a race when he decided to slap a race official. 
And no matter what you say, you just can't go around slapping stewards or mauling marshals. It's a slip-up from the world's fastest hippy - or, to quote Mat: "The Red Mist can be a terrible thing!"
And if you're going to miss out on a track, don't let it be Brno! Your hosts have to admit to having a little bit of a crush on the Czech track, with those beautiful sharp S-corners. And a good race like this? Well, it definitely helps!
So come join us as Peter reveals why he's a fan of a very specific front tire and we wonder whether Aprilia suffers from a curse on their riders. Oh, and there's some interesting hints that seem to have something to do with Ohlins? 
Cheers!

Ah, the holeshot device. If you've heard Mat and Peter talk about it before, you'd fear to think what would happen if they ever met the poor devil who invented it...
...well, his name is Robin Tuluie and he's joining us this week! 
To say Tuluie is an important figure in motor sports is slightly underselling the man. Yes, he invented both the ride height device in MotoGP and introduced mass dampeners to F1, but that's really just fooling around for this modern day Renaissance Man and astrophysicist who currently runs PhysicsX, using machine learning to crack the secrets of physics and engineering. 
Sounds good, right? So come join us today as we welcome the smartest person to ever come on our podcast. Take it away!

Last year was the first time we went to Balaton, and the result wasn't great. This year? Hate the track, love the riders. And I say 'riders', plural, because it takes two to tango. 

And people, did we get one hell of a dance between Acosta and Marquez today. 

Yes, the king is back and schooling everyone with 1,5 functional arms. Keen readers might notice that this is slightly less than the average of 2, but leave it to Marquez to make the best of it and show everyone how it's done. And if that doesn't make you excited, then just think:

He's only going to get better from here. 

Who also keeps steadily doing better is Pedro Acosta, showing us how gentlemen duel while speeding over the tarmac with Marc. He's making the KTM look good, perhaps even better than it really is. 

Now let's put him on a Ducati next year, and see what happens...

So yes, Mat and Peter have got plenty to talk about. Also, is this going to be the year that the Bez becomes champion? You never know...

It's a party at Aprilia and occasion for some very cross glares over at Ducati this Sunday at Mugello. Good race? You bet! So let's go over to Italy, and see what caught the eye of our hosts Mat and...
...wait, I'm getting word that Peter is still on a secret mission somewhere? Oh dear. Have we got anyone else on the ground, then? 
Nope, nobody but Mat and his incredible social skills! So there he goes, conjuring up a co-host out of thin air for this weekend! Give it up for Cory West, American rider representing Saddlemen Racing in the Bagger World Cup. He's very charming, funny and isn't afraid to walk around the entire track with Mat while carrying a silly microphone. And let me tell you, the man knows his history. Thanks Cory! 
Okay, we'll be back to our regular broadcasts next week, but until then enjoy this very special episode from Mugello. Cheers!

You've heard it here first, everyone! 

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAR RIGHT NOW.

'What war?', you might ask? Well, I couldn't possibly tell you! Maybe the Duke of Luxembourg decided to invade Thailand. Maybe it's the manufacturers versus Liberty. Maybe cats and dogs are finally getting serious about it. All just as likely, right?

Okay, maybe if there was a war it would be about the second topic. And maybe that hypothetical scrap would be about a new rule that limits riders to a single bike all weekend, giving a whole new dimension to already disasterous crash-outs. 

And if that were the case, wouldn't that touch upon a topic at the heart of the sport? I'm talking here about crashes, about risk and its old companion danger. There's no denying it: we all love that MotoGP is a sport with serious teeth. But what is acceptible, what is moral and what is realistic? Consider this our little addendum to last week's race. 

Alright, enough blabbing on my part. Let's get Mat and Peter in here, eh?

Cheers!
