There’s huge excitement over what World Superbike king Toprak Razgatlioglu will bring to MotoGP when he finally makes the move across in 2026 after so many near-deals.

But is there enough appreciation for the world Razgatlioglu is leaving? His MotoGP move - and the chance of main rival Nicolo Bulega soon following him - has put a new spotlight on World Superbikes, as has the question of what new Dorna owner Liberty Media plans to do with it.

The Race MotoGP Podcast’s roving reporter Oliver Card was given special access to the World Superbike Championship’s recent Donington Park round to learn more about the series’ appeal and standing, armed with questions from The Race Members’ Club.

Marc Marquez's fifth consecutive MotoGP weekend double has put him 120 points clear at the top of the standings - so how soon can he wrap up the title?

Valentin Khorounzhiy and Simon Patterson discuss Marquez's latest triumph in The Race MotoGP Podcast's Czech Grand Prix episode, recorded on location at Brno.

They delve into Ducati's unusually vulnerable weekend aside from Marquez's double - and into Alex Marquez's mistake that removed himself and the luckless Joan Mir from Sunday's race, the last before the series' summer break.

They also discuss Jorge Martin's remarkably happy, best-case scenario return to MotoGP action with Aprilia - and a career-best premier-class weekend for Raul Fernandez.

Marc Marquez recorded a fourth consecutive sprint-grand prix double in MotoGP 2025 at the Sachsenring, to virtually nobody's surprise - but did he take too much risk given the championship picture to ensure he went unbeaten?

And why did Sunday's race come so close to having single-digit finishers, with Turn 1 proving shockingly troublesome in a span of just a couple of laps?

Valentin Khorounzhiy and Simon Patterson discuss this and more in a post-race podcast recorded on location in Chemnitz, while also talking about Jorge Martin's reported decision to stay with Aprilia.

Plus, are Pedro Acosta's errors alarming amid the backdrop of his dissatisfaction with KTM? Should Yamaha look for a way out of the Alex Rins deal before the end of 2026? And how badly has Diogo Moreira hurt his MotoGP '26 chances with the crash he'd caused in Moto2?
