In this episode of the Paddock Pass Podcast, David sits down for a very long interview with Yamaha's now former MotoGP boss looking back over his career. Jarvis tells of how he ended up in Europe, how he had all his belongings stolen in the Vatican, how he ended up suffering with burnout, and how he ended up in MotoGP, He also talks about what working with Max Biaggi taught him, how signing Valentino Rossi saved Yamaha's MotoGP project, how he managed Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, and the fallout from Sepang 2015. He also tells us how he sees the project he leaves behind to his successor, Paolo Pavesio.

Before the interview, Neil, David and Adam discuss the VR46 Ducati launch, David Alonso's shoulder injury, and a very brief update on KTM. Plus news of exciting new opportunities for Patreon supporters!
