Summary
MotoGP is banning wildcards for the advent of its new rules in 2027 - but why, and how much will they be missed? Val Khorounzhiy is joined by Simon Patterson and 'wildcard' Jordan Moreland on this latest edition of The Race MotoGP Podcast, as the crew delve into the modern realities of the MotoGP wildcard and debate your takes (and your picks for the most memorable wildcards in MotoGP). They also touch on another injury setback for Maverick Vinales (replaced by Jonas Folger at Le Mans) and what it means for his 2027 outlook, and preview a likely weather-affected French Grand Prix weekend.
