655: Two Near Misses - 2026 MotoGP Catalonia GP Review

A chilling edition of the Motorsport101 podcast as Dre, RJ and Cam review a MotoGP weekend in Barcelona that had two enormous red flag crashes. During the race, Alex Marquez crashed into the back of Pedro Acosta's KTM as it was cutting out. His bike veers violently towards the wall and Marquez falls out, breaking his clavicle and M7 vertebrae, he'll be out for at least the next two races.

After the race restarted, Johann Zarco locks a brake going into Turn 1, but gets his leg trapped in the frame of Pecco Bagnaia's Ducati, tearing several ligaments in his knee, his meniscus and breaking the bottom of his fibula. He'll be back in France for at least a fortnight before surgery on his leg to repair the damage. Eventually, Fabio di Giannantonio won, but at what cost?

The trio ask the difficult questions. We ponder if KTM should have been allowed back onto the grid after several mechanical problems with their bikes. Should the race have restarted at all with the mood so sour and riders clearly conflicted about wanting to race again. And does Barcelona need more Safety Changes after another horrible accident there? Time for a reprofile of Turn 1? Does Turn 12 need more runoff after Jorge Martin suffered a potential concussion, only to then crash five more times across the weekend? And finally, does the sport need a riders union?

All that and more on an emotionally loaded Motorsport101.
