The MotoGP rider market was supposed to be pretty settled heading to 2026, but it’s actually gone crazy - and not just because of Jorge Martin’s antics.

Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer - with interjections from Simon Patterson in the Isle of Man TT paddock - give their takes on all the potential moves and which riders and teams actually need a break from each other and a fresh start, regardless of what the contracts actually say.

Plus, the latest Toprak Razgatlioglu/MotoGP link and the lessons from things Davide Brivio’s done in the past.
