Never a dull moment in MotoGP rider negotiations at the moment. So much so that the Paddock Pass Podcast is at risk of being overtaken by events as we discuss the potential losers of MotoGP silly season, and who stands to lose their job. Adam, David, Neil, and Steve talk what will happen to Jack Miller, Augusto Fernandez, Raul Fernandez, Joan Mir, and Alex Rins for next season, and where they might end up.

And David sits down for a long interview with MotoGP Director of Technology Corrado Cecchinelli to ask about the 2027 MotoGP regulations. By now, we know what has been decided - no ride-height devices, less aerodynamics, 850cc engines, and less fuel - but how exactly do you go about banning ride-height devices without clever engineers finding a way around the restrictions? Cecchinelli explains all this and more.
