Does MotoGP need to get over its addiction to Valentino Rossi?
Is MotoGP too reliant on Valentino Rossi's legacy for its current-day promotion?
That is the topic of discussion in the latest edition of The Race MotoGP Podcast, with host Toby Moody joined by the usual cast of Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy.
Was series promoter Dorna too keen on accentuating Rossi's presence in the Valencia season finale - where protege Pecco Bagnaia took the title - and just how much is Rossi's absence hurting the championship?
And is there anybody already on the grid who can pick up the mantle as the series' transcendent star?
The crew discuss all those questions, and also pitch a potential rivalry that could emulate Rossi's famous feuds and boost MotoGP's fortunes.
