The 2025 MotoGP season is go! Racing has started, and the Thai Grand Prix at Buriram is over. And as ever, the start of a new season raises as many questions as it answers. Neil, David, Adam and Steve discuss the highlights and lowlights of the first MotoGP round using questions sent to them by Paddock Pass Podcast Patreon backers. 

We discuss Marc Marquez' ominous win, why he dropped behind his brother Alex Marquez for two thirds of the race, how Pecco Bagnaia comes back from this, whether Aprilia is now the second best manufacturer on the grid, our Patreon supporters' rider of the weekend, and wind up with our Hire, Fire, and Liar rounds.

Thanks to Renthal Street and Pole Position Travel for their support for the show.
