The Race MotoGP Podcast convenes to discuss the 2022 season finale in Valencia, as Pecco Bagnaia held on to clinch Ducati's first riders' title since 2007 in a nervier-than-anticipated weekend.
Host Toby Moody is joined by Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy to discuss Bagnaia's race and contact with rival Fabio Quartararo, and how the weekend had offered glimpses of genuine title intrigue before a Sunday that largely lived up to pre-weekend expectations.
They also talk about whether Bagnaia's success shows Valentino Rossi's VR46 Academy is the now the template for talent development and how much credit Ducati deserves for identifying and improving its new champion.
Suzuki's bittersweet farewell win - and whether it proved the manufacturer's board wrong - is also on the agenda, as is another statement ride by KTM's Brad Binder, the 2023 prospects of Pramac Ducati's Jorge Martin and Aprilia's perhaps worst meltdown of the season.
