Photo: motogp.com The 2023 MotoGP season was the biggest season we’ve ever seen. We were treated to 20 race weekends between March and November (it had been scheduled to be 21 rounds until the cancellation of the Kazakhstan GP), and with the introduction of the Saturday Sprint we saw lots of action across the season.

Having said all that Bagnaia was certainly a nailed-on champion. And nailed on it was.  He was 14 points ahead going into the race, so what could possibly go wrong?  For him nothing.  For just about nearly everyone else, everything. Winning a second title from the top step is without dou ..read more
