Drastic cuts for MotoGP for 2025 Even though Pedro Acosta finished sixth in the World Championship in his first MotoGP season, the young star clearly missed his targets for 2024 despite several podium finishes. The Spaniard saw the finish flag far too rarely, especially in the last quarter of his rookie season. But for the […]
Portimao 2024 preview
The seventh round of the WorldSBK in the Algarve Due to the one-hour time difference in the rest of Europe, as on the weekend of the MotoGP event in Silverstone, the next WSBK races in Portugal will also take place at a rather late hour. After a far too long summer break between Misano and […]

Mixed impressions from the visit to the 6th WorldSBK round During our visit to the Czech Republic, we were a little depressed to note that our positive words in the preliminary report on the Brüx round were perhaps a little too friendly.

Dramatic WorldSBK Sunday in Most with outstanding Toprak The fact that the Turk from the Czech Republic left Sunday afternoon undefeated for the tenth time in a row has been reported absolutely correctly.

Racing dwarf Alvaro Bautista had had an immense advantage […]
Donington review
Open words of the World Cup leader after his eighth victory After his outstanding victory in the sprint race, Toprak Razgatlioglu gave a memorable interview to two-time WSBK world champion James Toseland (2004 on Ducati and 2007 for Honda) on Sunday morning. When the Englishman asked the Turk about the large gap to the second-placed […]
Donington Sunday
Sprint with redemption at the home race for the best of all time It was probably more like rocks than stones that fell from the hearts of Yamaha newcomer Jonathan Rea and his team when the 6-time record world champion crossed the finish line in third place with a wheelie after the sprint race. For […]
Sachsenring review 2024
Dramatic ninth round before the second MotoGP summer break When the new calendar was announced last year, we had already expressed our doubts about the highly questionable planning by FIM and Dorna for 2024. Originally, the Kazakhstan GP was supposed to take place in mid-June after Mugello and before Assen. After the German Grand Prix […]
Assen SBK Sunday
Round 3 characterized by typical April weather The fact that Dorna is based in Spain in no way excuses their planning errors in WorldSBK and MotoGP. Anyone who was there in Assen like we were and watched, freezing far too often, how in the borderline conditions the pilots often had to struggle almost more with […]
