Tank Slappers Podcast: MotoGP Americas GP review
Aprilia gave Maverick Vinales a second chance after his contentious departure from Yamaha in 2021, but he initially struggled to meet expectations. However, in the United States, Vinales secured a breakthrough win in Portugal and followed it up with a flawless weekend in America, including pole position, sprint race victory, and his first grand prix win since Qatar 2021.

The Tank Slappers podcast features a discussion on Vinales’ comeback and how Aprilia has helped him showcase his talent. Additionally, topics such as Ducati’s communication issues, Marc Marquez’s performance at the Americas GP, and the impressive debut of rookie Pedro Acosta are also analyzed.
