Increasingly dramatic series of injuries in MotoGP To anticipate one thing, we and many fans are looking forward to the newly introduced Tissot Sprintrace on Saturday morning. This short race, which has been known from WorldSBK since 2019 and will also be adopted for the MotoGP for the 2023 season, definitely brought a breath of […]

Grand Prix without Marquez and with ridiculous rules After his disaster at the Sachsenring and the day before, Marc Marquez, the statistically most successful driver in the field, decided not to start a GP in the Netherlands. However, the FIM commissioners shot the bird off on Sunday morning. In all seriousness, they announced a change […]

Chaotic weekend opener at MotoGP Round 8 in the Netherlands We have the FIM and their officials to thank for when a race is flagged down and there is prolonged confusion about the composition of the podium.

GP of Germany with World Championship round 7 With the German Grand Prix on the Sachsenring, the MotoGP continues in traditional cities just one week after the Italian GP in Mugello. Of course, today’s route has almost nothing in common with the street circuit of the time. Only the finish curve with the following start-finish […]
