With all factory contracts up for grabs for the 2021 season, this year’s MotoGP ‘silly season’ is set to be the series’ maddest yet. One of the biggest story arcs in shaping the 2021 grid will be what nine-time grand prix motorcycle racing world champion Valentino Rossi decides to do; will he retire or will he decide to extend his stay in MotoGP. In the first edition of the Tank Slappers podcast in 2020, Autosport’s Motorcycle Racing Correspondent Lewis Duncan is joined by Motorsport.com’s Global MotoGP Editor Oriol Puigdemont to discuss Rossi’s options and as well as Yamaha’s. They also delve into what Ducati needs to do to topple the MotoGP juggernaut of Marc Marquez and Honda, and discuss Aprilia’s current situation with Andrea Iannone, who was hit with an anti-doping ban over the winter.
