  • Our final verdict on the 2025 Isle of Man TT
    Jun 12 2025

    With another running of the Isle of Man TT complete, Megan White and Simon Patterson look back on all the action for a special edition of The Race’s MotoGP Podcast.


    Three riders took all the spoils in the solo classes, with one win for Davey Todd and two apiece for Michael Dunlop and Dean Harrison, while the Crowe brothers dominated in Sidecars.


    Despite the Senior TT being cancelled due to adverse weather conditions, it was still a brilliant week of racing on the island, with 10 thrilling races.


    Megan and Simon looked back over the high points to see who the big winners of this year’s Isle of Man TT were, plus The Race's founder Andrew van de Burgt joins to share his experiences of attending the TT for the first time (Spoiler: He liked it a lot).

  • Razgatlioglu's Yamaha move - all the repercussions
    Jun 11 2025

    It’s finally happening: after so many years of rumour and flirtation, the World Superbike Championship’s breakout superstar Toprak Razgatlioglu is coming to MotoGP in 2026.


    And the man who once only wanted to go to MotoGP on a factory bike, and whose Yamaha MotoGP bridge looked burned by two bad tests and a fractious aftermath, is joining the MotoGP grid… with Yamaha’s satellite team Pramac.


    Matt Beer wakes Simon Patterson from his well-deserved post Silverstone-TT-Aragon nap to discuss why Razgatlioglu is finally making the leap and assess how he might fare and how his first season should be judged.


    We also explain for anyone who hasn’t followed World Superbikes why Razgatlioglu is such a coup for MotoGP, and consider the impact of his exit on WSBK - especially with his 2025 title rival Nicolo Bulega also now being lined up for a MotoGP future too.

    While Marc Marquez effortlessly dominated the Aragon Grand Prix ahead of brother Alex, his Ducati team-mate Pecco Bagnaia went from a dismally off the pace sprint to a genuinely encouraging Sunday race.


    Did 1.5cm of brake disc really have a transformative effect that will change Bagnaia’s 2025 season? Simon Patterson, Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer ponder the key to Bagnaia’s turnaround and how significant it might actually be.


    Yamaha’s tumble backwards, KTM’s surge forwards and Aprilia’s latest rider intrigue also feature, there’s a mild argument between the Joan Mir Fan Club and Johann Zarco Fan Club arms of the podcast panel and Simon has a downbeat rant that comes from a place of genuine love for MotoGP.
