Amy Reynolds is joined by Peter McLaren and Lewis Duncan to discuss all of the action from the Malaysian Grand Prix, as the paddock has been plunged into chaos over its plans to race in Qatar.

It's a move that has angered MotoGP, who is now threatening sanctions on the Japanese brand. With just days to go until the race, will it even happen? And what will happen if the conflict in the region escalates while MotoGP is on the ground?

It's all overshadowing what could be an historic weekend for Marc Marquez, who is now 44 points clear in the championship and has a chance to win his eighth MotoGP world title in Qatar.

Amy Reynolds is joined by Peter McLaren and Lewis Duncan to discuss all of the action from the Indonesian Grand Prix.

Jorge Martin holds onto a slender MotoGP points lead over Marc Marquez, but Aprilia comes away from a weekend in which it dominated the main race with a 1-2-3-4 that can only be considered a missed opportunity. And Marquez, on his worst track, piled the pressure on Martin to the point where he made a huge mistake in the sprint.

With just five rounds to go and two points in it, Aprilia must now get drastic and consider team orders to give Martin every opportunity possible to beat Marquez.

The team also discuss the new-for-2027 format that was announced ahead of the Indonesian GP. It was not received well by riders or fans; Amy, Pete and Lewis question the motivation behind it and argue that it won't be a major difference-maker for MotoGP.
