Summary
First remote episode and we’re scattered across continents. Gav in Thailand, Neil about to board his long-haul, and Sylvain operating somewhere on his own time zone.
The final MotoGP test at Buriram is done. The stopwatch has spoken. Ducati still look like the reference point, but Aprilia mean business. Marc Marquez had a couple of chastening crashes but isn’t exactly panicking anyone, and the aero arms race continues to sprout more carbon than common sense.
Yamaha are still searching, Fabio teetering on the edge, Toprak humble and Jack now a PR person's dream, eh? What was that about Adelaide? Phillip Island clocks out. Neil gets The Bends. Tradition versus expansion. Romance versus reality. We get stuck into it properly.
There’s rider market noise too, including whispers around Bagnaia, plus a look at Bulega's dominance in WorldSBK and what that might mean.
We finish with fan questions and our first real predictions of the year.
Testing’s over.
And away we go.

| 0:45.3 | an eye on proceedings. |
