MotoGP Season Preview & Predictions (with special guest Amy Reynolds)

A revolutionary MotoGP season - and its longest-ever - begins this weekend, with the Portuguese Grand Prix not only beginning the 2023 world championship but also launching the new sprint race format.

MotoGP broadcaster Amy Reynolds makes a special guest appearance on The Race MotoGP Podcast alongside regulars Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer as we preview the 2023 season and make a few bold predictions.

Predicting the champion might be quite straightforward this time, but we also take a punt at picking their title rivals and the other potential race-winners - or maybe that should be picking the tiny number of riders who _don't_ have a shot at a race victory this season (spoiler alert: we come up with 19.5 candidates to win).

The riders and teams most likely to struggle, and the potential flashpoint and controversies are discussed too.

And there's also a (re)appearance from a familiar voice to podcast listeners, with news of something very special we've got planned for the rest of the season.
