Read this, or you can read the 2025 & 2026 rule books instead
The 2026 #MotoGP rule book came out today. I went through and analysed the most important changes.
Couple of notes: firstly, these are only for 2026, with nothing about 2027. Second, only a few tweaks, but a few interesting hints about the future...

For those who happen to speak spanish, I’m thinking about vlogging about MotoGP. Mostly to fill my days, after 16 surgeries and getting back a more normal face I feel confident enough to look at the camera.

Of course this is not a gift 😅

Had a clairvoyance attack and wrote a light article on why is Marc Márquez the best rider in history

Cannot understand Acosta saying 2025 was a total void, but think that will be the real mistake

It's funny watching Toprak wrestling with his bike, over riding it and overiding the way to be fast.

Not intended to be a critic

I get it, why not use the slot with one of your riders. But, does this let the best riders have a MotoGp ride - or to that end you should be part of an organisation?
Celestino Vietti is to get a go on Franco Morbidelli's Pertamina VR46 Ducati at the Valencia #MotoGP test. Morbidelli is injured, so why not?

The end race of the season for Bagnaia is a representation of this year.

It's heartbreaking watching Fabio Quartararo's race, incapable to compete despite his quality.
November 15, 2025 at 2:43 PM
For Pecco Bagnaia the unusual this season was being competitive. Japan's result is out of the norm, being mid-pack his reallity.
Sure he can be the star at a new 'Stranger Things' show.

It's not the rider, but surely neither the bike is.

Answers anyone?

Impressive and promising last laps from Nicolò Bulega, even a 39,3. Looks like he found something in his riding style by understanding the bike.
Amazing ride by the winner, superior, and interesting the strategy by the 2nd and 3rd.

At least a v good SPR.
3 factories and 3 rider styles on the podium.
KTM lacks from traction and Aprilia power, but the riders putting the lines that bikes need to match leader laptimes.
Great rider Alex Marquez on a great bike (8 and 14 seconds to others G24s)

Raul and his Aprilia showing that Portimão should not be in the calendar. And Tatay's accident should have been enough to know that bikes are not a good fit for those tiny gravel traps.
When I rode there always had a constant risk feeling.

It's been four years since I took a taxi that couldn't complete its journey but instead took me on an endless ordeal.
Every day I try striving to improve myself, both physically and mentally, as a person, because I want to live up to my wife, Gemma.

Starting to think the concept 'artificial intelligence' is the same futuristic idea used to sell computers to the world by saying 'electronic brain'.

Ok, the main thing is not publish everything or do it in a rush. It’s time to remember that we are a family and we should act with the respect every family has for their members.
All the love and strength to José Antonio and, especially, Noah and his family and team.

Feeling for Quartararo.
I wonder if his team thought of a race without someone heating his front tyre.
Stupid rule.

Just learned what happened.
Racing has no sense when nothing is at play, and nothing is more important than lives.
Not sure those boys are ok to race.
