EMERGENCY POD: Reaction as Suzuki pull out of MotoGP

Suzuki's shock decision to withdraw from MotoGP at the end of 2022 is the subject of a special episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast.

Host Toby Moody is joined by Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy to discuss the likely initial fallout from Suzuki's exit.

The 2023 options for its two riders Joan Mir and Alex Rins are also brought up, as are the ramifications for both Mir's and Rins's chances to remain in the title fight this year.
