Join Karl and Danny talking about all that is WSBK from round 2 in Portugal. Portimao became the Bulega masterclass. After Sam Lowes set the early pace on Friday, Bulega turned it into a perfect round, winning Race 1, the Superpole Race, and Race 2 to complete a hat-trick on the Algarve rollercoaster.

Behind him, the bigger story was who could stay closest: Iker Lecuona emerged as the main challenger, finishing second in all three races, while Miguel Oliveira gave the home crowd something to cheer about with back-to-back Sunday podiums after also taking a Race 1 rostrum. By the end of the weekend, Bulega had stretched his advantage at the top of the standings to 124 points, with Lecuona next on 68.

Next up will be coverage of MotoGP round 3 from COTA with Jim and Jake trackside, bringing you the best of the action.

MotoGP Round 2 came from Brazil’s Autódromo Internacional de Goiânia, hosting a round for the first time since 1989. An action packed weekend, with crazy weather, a massive crowd, some good racing and more than a fair share of chaos with sink holes and track break-up detracting from what was, overall, a great reintroduction for Brazil onto the MotoGP calendar. Its early days in the championships, but already Moto3 and Moto2 are revealing the likely front runners. In MotoGP, track conditions had a major bearing on the outcome but Aprilia continue to give Ducati pause for thought. Next stop COTA, with Jim trackside.

Jim and MotoAmerica host Jake Rower do their first podcast together. The guys talk about all the action from Daytona as motorcycle racing starts in the States!

Jim and Jake get straight to the racing with coverage of the Mission Super Hooligan races and then talk about the Twins Cup races. Next up was the Mission King of the Baggers races. These two races both shocked the guys and are something that they are keen to expand on in coming shows.

Last was the Daytona 200 itself. They talk about the red flag, the pitstop problems, the first appearance of former Moto2 rider Darin Binder and his epic battle with up and coming racer Kayla Yaakov. Congratulations to Josh Herrin for becoming a five time winner of the 200.
