What Quartararo's Portimao walkover means for his next MotoGP deal

Fabio Quartararo's unstoppable ride to his first victory of his 2022 title defense at Portimao is the central topic of the latest episode of The Race MotoGP podcast.

Host Toby Moody is joined by Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy to discuss how Quartararo's landslide win fits into a campaign that had been largely disappointing so far, and whether it could be enough to get him to commit to Yamaha longer-term.

There's also a discussion of the noticeably low fan attendance during the weekend, the Jack Miller crash that also wiped out Joan Mir, the rain-induced Moto2 near-pileup and an uncharacteristically muted race from Marc Marquez.

Poleman and second-place finisher Johann Zarco also gets a segment dedicated to him, as the crew debate whether he's likely to win a race this season and his chances to remain at Pramac Ducati.
