On the Saturday at Monza, Marco Bezzecchi was in Kimi Antonelli's garage and got fitted into his Mercedes. He said he is still more comfortable on a bike. The next day Antonelli won the race in that car from nineteenth on the grid. Only one man has ever won a Formula 1 race from further back.In this video we work out what a grid slot is actually worth in each sport. Why a red flag and a virtual safety car can hand you a race in F1, and why every modern comeback win looks the same. Why a dry MotoGP race has no pit stops at all, so every place has to be taken on track. And why Formula 1 still races at Monza when the bikes stopped going there in 1987.If you come from F1, this is the clearest look you will get at the one rule that changes how a MotoGP race is actually won.Ride Along Trackside is where F1 fans get MotoGP explained, one lesson a week, no engineering degree required.

Marc Marquez just won at Aragon again. Here's the part that should not make sense to an F1 fan: he has now won at this one circuit on a Honda and on a Ducati, two completely different bikes, years apart.In this video we work out one thing an F1 fan already has an opinion about: how much of a MotoGP lap is the rider, and how much is the bike. We use the 2026 Aragon weekend as the evidence, plus the win that really proves it: Marquez taking Aragon in 2024 on a year-old Ducati that wasn't even the fastest bike on the grid.If you come from F1, this is the clearest answer you'll get to the "is it the driver or the car" question, from the sport where the human is a bigger part of the machine.Ride Along Trackside is where F1 fans get MotoGP explained, one lesson a week, no engineering degree required.Ride Along Trackside - subscribe for weekly MotoGP breakdowns: linktr.ee/ridealongtracksideLap Times:0:00 Introduction0:49 Rider Versus Machine1:30 The Bike Makes The Difference2:31 One Lap Or A Full Race3:55 The Win That Shouldn't Have Happened4:36 The Bike Still Matters5:16 More Rider Than You Think6:07 Both Things Can Be True6:57 What Happens When Riders MoveWho do you think is the closest thing F1 has to a rider like Marc Marquez, someone who would perform in any machinery you put them in?

Formula 1 raced at Zandvoort for the last time this weekend, in front of a reported 305,000 people across the weekend. The circuit wasn't dropped — the promoter turned down a rotation deal and walked. The reason has almost nothing to do with how many fans turn up.In this video we look at how a race that pulls over 300,000 people shuts down anyway, the French circuit F1 walked away from in 1967 that drew the largest crowd MotoGP has ever had, and whether MotoGP is heading the same way now Liberty Media owns it too.How far the F1 hosting fee has climbed since 2019, and how small MotoGP's is by comparisonWhy Assen has been on the calendar since the world championship began in 1949, and is signed through 2031The entertainment tax and the proposed VAT rise that finished Zandvoort offWhat the Phillip Island to Adelaide move tells you about MotoGP's next decadeRide Along Trackside is MotoGP for F1 fans — one lesson per video, built for people who know motorsport but are new to bikes.Subscribe if you want the sport explained properly rather than shouted at you.Lap Times:0:00 Introduction1:06 Two Circuits, Two Outcomes1:58 Chasing New Markets2:33 What A Slot Costs3:15 Who Pays4:36 The Taxes On Top5:26 It Comes Down To The Fee5:54 MotoGP Is Next#MotoGP #F1 #RideAlongTrackside
