By Simon Patterson Verified| The Race Verified Former Moto2 championship runner-up Raul Fernandez has opened up about what he believes to be the root cause of his 2025 MotoGP problems, after yet another frustrating weekend at the Trackhouse Aprilia at the team’s home race in Texas.
By Simon Patterson Verified| The Race Verified Honda’s MotoGP effort is facing a looming decision on the future direction of its rider line-up. It's weighing up whether or not to renew the expiring contracts of Luca Marini and Johann Zarco, even amid rumours of interest in stealing Pedro Acosta away from the struggling KTM.
By Simon Patterson Verified| The Race Verified Pedro Acosta says he has gone back to more of a 2024-spec KTM MotoGP bike and immediately felt the benefits, in a move that comes as a damning indictment on the factory's 2025 developments. Acosta, like his fellow KTM riders, was hamstrung by ongoing vibration issues during the sprint at the Qatar Grand Prix, and both he and Tech3 rider Maverick Vinales tumbled out of the points to 11th and 10th respectively while trying to nurse their disintegrating soft rear tyres to the end.
