In this week's episode of the Paddock Pass Podcast, Neil Morrison, Adam Wheeler, and David Emmett sit down on Monday morning after Jerez to discuss how the Spanish GP played out. We discuss how it felt to have a proper, almost normal grand prix for a change, and the special atmosphere at Jerez making a very welcome return. We discuss Pecco Bagnaia's outstanding victory, and what it means for the championship. We discuss how technology, and especially braking performance thanks to ride-height devices and aerodynamics, is making passing exceptionally difficult. And we talk about the epic battle for third, as well as a quick look at Moto2 and Moto3. We finish up with our winners and losers.

We did not discuss the fallout of the news that Suzuki will be withdrawing from MotoGP, as that broke several hours after we recorded the podcast. There will be a special version of the podcast once we get an official announcement from Suzuki on the news.
