Santa has come early!

Very grateful that the print size is appropriate for (ahem) mature readers.

Sadly, I now have to give it to my wife so she can wrap it and give it back to me on Christmas Day.

Only just got around to watching this. It's as good as all the others 👏 Best bits are MM93 & Bulega joking about MM taking Bulega out at the WDW. And Bagnaia talking about the first laps of sprints. "They are out of their minds. There are absurd things." www.youtube.com/watch?v=se-m...

Pedro Acosta was a #MotoGP star aboard his steadily improving KTM in 2025

@matoxley.bsky.social discovers how the team went backwards to go forwards and what it'll take to win again

KTM chases MotoGP win: ‘Acosta is riding very, very accurate and he’s very, very focused’
KTM’s Pedro Acosta was one of MotoGP's stars in 2025 aboard his steadily improving RC16. KTM reveals how it went backwards to go forwards, why the purpose of a mass damper is to prevent all the resonances on a MotoGP bike having a party together and why KTM wants them banned

What did KTM do to the RC16 to get Acosta back to the front of #MotoGP? It's all in here, including some top talk about mass dampers: "We need to control the frequencies, to basically not have a party between all the different resonances." 🥳🕺💃😅

Here's a post-season shocker 🔥 #MotoGP may ban Aprilia's leg wings, which played their part in the RS-GP's 3 victories from the last 4 races. The wings are a safety concern, say Dorna, Race Direction and IRTA, but what about holeshot devices and so on? www.motorsportmagazine.com/articles/mot...

If you're at the NEC next Friday, the 21st, I'll be on the main stand at 13:00 talking #MotoGP with the estimable James Whitham. We will be chatting about the 2025 championship & addressing the great debate: who's the GOAT? VR46 or MM93? Come and heckle!
