In the second episode of our series of in-depth conversations with paddock people, renowned MotoGP engineer Tom Jojic returns to The Race MotoGP Podcast for a wide-ranging discussion with host Toby Moody.

Toby and Tom discuss the latest aero trends in MotoGP and what 2023’s race weekend format changes mean for engineers, before diving into how both have potentially contributed to Pecco Bagnaia’s recent habit of falling off his bike.

They also discuss MotoGP’s ‘electronic war’ and whether this is contributing to riders, like Bagnaia, struggling to ‘feel’ their bikes.

There’s also a chat about whether it’s time for Yamaha to ditch its inline-four engine for a V4 and how Valentino Rossi’s VR46 team can keep its great start to the season going.
