Who really cares about the full MotoGP Championship these days? It’s long, forgettable and it’s boring – just like Damon Hill’s career. Instead get with the TikTok kids where attention spans are shorter than Capirossi’s turn-ups and the danger levels intensified. Welcome to the MGPNews MotoGP Fly-Away Championship. Consisting of just the four fly-away races…
The Ute Award The Australian Ute is the mullet of motors: slick sedan vibes up front, wild tradie party tray in the back. Born in the ‘30s when a farmer’s wife demanded a ride to haul pigs and look pious at church, Ford Australia birthed this bogan beauty. It’s the vehicular lovechild of a Flatbed…

Now Baggers can’t even manage to scrape through into Q2 and can usually…
With the recent introduction of the ‘stability control’ ECU algorithm in MotoGP (click here for full story) our sport is slowly heading down the ‘can’t someone else do it?’ path. So what if we speeded up this process and did away with the human aspect altogether? What if robots were to replace the riders and…
The track Terrible and dangerous. Marc Marquez Won everything, like usual. Pecco Bagnaia Awful. Then not quite as awful. Claimed he’d ‘found something’ after the race that he’ll not doubt lose before the next. Other riders Some did well, others not. Those that have previously done well may not have this time. …
