677: Aprilia's Clean Sweep - 2026 MotoGP British Grand Prix Review
from Motorsport101 · host Dre Harrison
The Summer of Marquez just got cancelled. The British Grand Prix marked the first race back from the 2026 Summer Break and with it, Aprilia came back with a thunderous vengence with Double Sweeps of both the Sprint and Grand Prix podium. Jorge Martin dominated the Sprint, and Raul Fernandez ripped out a 4-second lead during the Grand Prix and didn't look back enroute to his second Grand Prix victory. Dre and RJ break down why and how Aprilia's come back so strongly after the Summer Break, as well as lay out a post-mortum for Ducati, who struggled to gain any kind of foothold beyond a pair of fourth places for Alex Marquez. There's also a deep dive into another poor Silverstone turnout, with just 43,000 on race day and 106,000 across the weekend. Is there a serious promotion problem within MSEG for the British Grand Prix? Is it an accessibility problem, or is the sport still recovering from losing Valentino Rossi? Also, is MSEG pushing for a cost cap and a transfer window, ala football?All that and more on a new Motorsport101!
