SolomonHOST
We now have a full roster of 22 riders.
SolomonHOST
We are technically waiting on David Alonso and Diego Moreira's exact order between the two Honda teams to still be named, but...
SolomonHOST
We now know all 22 riders will be contesting next year's MotoGP championship.
SolomonHOST
And I got to say, Elisa, it's a very exciting list of names.
SolomonHOST
He has won nine and podium 13.
SolomonHOST
Um, it's really tough to have insightful new commentary about a kid like this.
SolomonHOST
Um, I remember having similar discussions kind of back and forth over the course of David Alonso's Moto3 championship campaign, where especially on the back end, where Alonso just kind of went on a tear and broke every remaining record and won every race.
SolomonHOST
And we're all like, Yeah, and you know what? He did it again, and he did much the same as he did previously, and he's probably going to do it again next week.
Boris MihailovicHOST
Mad first lap.
Boris MihailovicHOST
Filthy, Ortola, Guevara, Alonso are all swapping hatred like big stock.
Tug McClutchinHOST
And meanwhile, Senna was back in 15th, the poor fucker.
Boris MihailovicHOST
Nothing works, electronics, smoke, death.
FredoHOST
And they better be fucking
Tug McClutchinHOST
ready for him.
Tug McClutchinHOST
Yeah, but we said that about David Alonso.
Tug McClutchinHOST
We did, but this kid is different.
TomHOST
He has.
TomHOST
Philip Salach in second, David Alonso third, Manu Gonzalez in fourth, Ortola fifth, Lopez sixth.
TomHOST
Great ride from him, actually, Lopez.
TomHOST
I didn't talk about it much, but he fucking did a massive wheelie off the line and went back a few places.
JamesHOST
Like, there's been some good races.
JamesHOST
Quillis is just dominating.
JamesHOST
But when David Alonso dominated, it was still amazing races because he...
JamesHOST
The fun thing about David Alonso is when he won...
Lewis DuncanHOST
I
Peter McLarenHOST
think David Alonso might be testing the Honda as well.
Peter McLarenHOST
I think some...
Lewis DuncanHOST
possibly anyway so that's it's good to see the rookies getting those opportunities you know mid-season instead of you know yeah yeah yeah instead of right at the end of the year on uh you know the first december you know and then they go in straight they get one day on the bike and then they go into the winter and then that's that's it until the end of january whereas now they're at least getting a few days in the bike beforehand and then they can focus on you know refining things come you know that that valencia test so Yeah, and good news for Ducati as well.
Adam WheelerHOST
So like 14 from 15.
Adam WheelerHOST
And then in Moto2, of course, David Alonso arresting, you know, some ups and downs and peaks and troughs during 2026 and then getting back on the box.
Adam WheelerHOST
So for me, Aspar is still the reference, it seems, in developing riders going neck and neck with the likes of sort of Aki Ayo or Nicolas Ayo's, you know, Moto2 and Moto3 team.
Adam WheelerHOST
So, Dave, who was your winner?
Neil HodgsonHOST
And then looking further back, sorry, Gav, I think then we might have some other aliens that are brewing, obviously, in the lower classes.
Neil HodgsonHOST
I know we're going to talk about Max Keeles, but Max Keeles or Davide Alonso, I know he didn't have the best of weekends.
Neil HodgsonHOST
So, yeah, let's hope there's some special talent coming through.
Gavin EmmettHOST
Right, we'll take another break.
Adam WheelerHOST
And we know that Sen Aegis hasn't taken the conventional route, neither has Manu Gonzalez, of course, to get to MotoGP.
Adam WheelerHOST
You could say the likes of Ethan Guevara, Daniel Holgado, David Alonso, these three in particular, have gone through the prototypical steps of Moto3, winning world championships, apart from Daniel, of course.
Adam WheelerHOST
And then, you know, proving themselves in different levels.
Adam WheelerHOST
Whereas Senna has just been on this amazingly steep learning curve.
Jim McDowellHOST
Halfway through, Gonzalez is the quickest, followed by Arbolino, Aegis, Holgardo, Colin Veyer, and Ortola.
Jim McDowellHOST
With about two minutes to play, poor Alonso gets screwed because Ferrandez winds up having a high side And crashes, poor Alonzo has nowhere to go and faults over his bike into the gravel trap.
Jim McDowellHOST
So that was it.
Jim McDowellHOST
He was done at that point.
6 MINS LATER
Jim McDowellHOST
He was pretty emotional about this one.
Jim McDowellHOST
Where were we? We had Guevara in sixth.
Jim McDowellHOST
Then it's Vietti, Lopez, Alonso, Escriche, Huertas, Munoz, Roberts, Fernandez, and Kinnett gets the last point in there.
Jim McDowellHOST
Things to say about this one, Rich?
SolomonHOST
Max Keeles is just impossible to resist in these final sections of Moto3 races, it turns out.
SolomonHOST
It is very David Alonso-esque in a lot of ways, where...
SolomonHOST
Not only is his general race graph really good, but there's this clinical nature to his racing in the final laps in particular that is just so difficult to resist when you are the opposition.
SolomonHOST
And he's clearly, in the start of the season, there were a couple of points where I think he kind of hadn't fully figured out the equation.
Eden HanniganGUEST
But, I mean, Pedro Acosta was, at one point, the best Moto3 rider I had ever seen.
Eden HanniganGUEST
That then got overtaken last year, watching David Alonso's Moto3 season, or two seasons ago, whenever Alonso was in [laughs] Moto2, Moto3.
Eden HanniganGUEST
And now I think that's at risk of being overtaken once again by Max McQuiles.
Eden HanniganGUEST
Like, how good Pedro Acosta is and how good, you know, all of the hype that he had around him coming up to, to MotoGP, Max McQuiles will have that and then some.
Eden HanniganGUEST
I mean, already Acosta and Aldeguer, seeing some of their little battles on track in the sprint, like, I'm excited to see them, you know, going at it.
Eden HanniganGUEST
All the history there as well.
Eden HanniganGUEST
I mean, you've, yeah, [laughs] you've got David Alonso, you've got...
Eden HanniganGUEST
I mean, I'm excited for all the Moto2 rookies next year because you hear things, like, I think it was Pol Espargaro said a couple of weeks ago about the development and the bikes for the MotoGP riders.
