What on earth happened in Catalunya?! MotoGP Pit Talk

Author: Fox Sports Australia May 21, 2026 Duration: 1:03:56

This wasn’t just another MotoGP weekend.
This was pure chaos, heartbreak, adrenaline and emotion from start to finish.

Catalunya had EVERYTHING... massive crashes, penalties everywhere, riders pushed beyond the limit, tempers exploding inside garages and a championship fight turned completely upside down. Some riders left as heroes. Others left furious. And a few left battered and broken.

In this episode of Pit Talk, Matt Clayton and Renita Vermeulen unpack one of the most emotional and dramatic MotoGP weekends we’ve seen in YEARS. The highs, the lows, the controversy, the tension… and the moments that had the entire paddock talking.
