Paddock Pass Podcast Episode 7 - A Look Back At Aragon

By PPP Team |

On the Monday after an intriguing MotoGP race at Aragon, David Emmett, Neil Morrison, and Tony Goldsmith all sat down to review the events of the weekend. We took a long look at how Jorge Lorenzo made sure of victory, we discussed how Dani Pedrosa outraced Valentino Rossi, something which does not happen very often. We also compared the differences between the performances of the two Ducati men, Andrea Iannone and Andrea Dovizioso, and ponder why that should be. We then repeated the process for Suzuki riders Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Viñales. And we also talk about Marc Marquez' crash, and why the Honda remains so difficult to ride.
