After a forgettable sprint race, the Spanish Grand Prix delivered the race which the 101,000 passionate fans packing the Jerez circuit deserved. It had everything: crashes, recoveries, passes, surprises.

After the race, Neil, David, and Adam sat down to dissect what had just unfolded. How Fabio Quartararo delivered one of the best races of his career, but still only finished second. Is this a turning point for Yamaha or just a one off? Alex Marquez finally got the grand prix win we all knew was coming, but never seemed to arrive. How did he do it? Is the Ducati GP24 the best bike on the grid? Plus, why didn't Pecco Bagnaia try to pass Fabio Quartararo to capitalize on his teammate's mistake? Why did Marc Marquez crash, and did he see shades of 2020? And is Maverick Viñales finally ready to shake off the random number generator nickname?
