Episode #503: 2024 MotoGP Qatar Grand Prix Review

Mar 17, 06:18 PM

Okay, this actually IS Episode 503 this time, promise. Our bad!

But MotoGP is back for 2024 for its season opener in Qatar! And in it, Francesco Bagnaia reminded the sport that he very much still him, winning in comfortable fashion! But to his surprise, it was Brad Binder that posed the biggest threat to him on a KTM. Is it a sign of things to come?

Inevitably, we have to talk about Marc Marquez who finished in the Top 5 in the Sprint and the Race, and was only about a tenth of Bagnaia's pace? A good sign for the future? And of course, the excitement is here in Tech3's Pedro Acosta, who at one point was ahead of Marquez and thinking about a podium before draining his tyres. A star is here?

Also, talk about the new Moto2, and an incredible comeback in Moto3 by "Magic" David Alonso, all on tap in another Motorsport101!
