Ducati has dominated the 2024 MotoGP season and discussion on The Race MotoGP Podcast this year – so it was banned from being mentioned on this week’s episode. Instead, our panel delves into the moves the rest of the paddock are making to get out of its shadow
In the current 2024 MotoGP season, Ducati is overwhelmingly dominating not only the races but also the discussions on The Race MotoGP Podcast.
This week’s episode intentionally avoids focusing on the championship leader and delves instead into the significant moves other teams are making to break free from Ducati’s shadow.
Topics include Honda’s new technical addition poached from Aprilia, Aprilia’s replacement for the departing staff member, Yamaha’s switch to a radical V4 engine, and KTM’s appointment of a new team principal.
Discussion also touches on the potential impact of KTM’s rising star Pedro Acosta, while addressing concerns such as Aprilia’s recent performance slump and the uncertainties surrounding Yamaha’s Alex Rins and KTM’s internal atmosphere.
Furthermore, the podcast addresses questions from The Race Members’ Club concerning everything excluding Ducati, highlighting the exclusive content available on Patreon for fans to engage with the community, submit queries for future podcasts, and access members-only episodes.
