Gas It Out

A slightly delayed review of the US MotoGP Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, with Sylvain Guintoli back from testing duties in Le Mans.Back in the UK, Gavin Emmett, Neil Hodgson and Sylvain recap another huge weekend for Aprilia as Marco Bezzecchi made it three wins from three in 2026, and five in a row overall. At this point, do Aprilia have to be considered title favourites? And who was it who said Jorge Martin did not stand a chance? Time to tuck into a slice of humble pie.There is plenty to get into on the Ducati side too. Right now it is Fabio Di Giannantonio doing the heavy lifting, Marc Marquez still does not look fully comfortable, and these next three weeks before Jerez could prove absolutely crucial.The lads also get into Pedro Acosta and KTM, the latest rider market rumours, Moto2 and Moto3 in Austin, WorldSBK in Portimao, and Sylvain’s build-up to Le Mans and the London Marathon.https://2026tcslondonmarathon.enthuse.com/pf/sylvain-guintoliAnd yes, Gavin explains how he ended up locked out of his hotel room in his boxer shorts.Hopefully the audio is up to scratch on this one. As ever, we are not professionals. Maybe if TopGolf DO fancy sponsoring us, we can finally pay somebody who is.Get in contact with the boys @gasitoutpod on Instagram. Hosted on Acast.
