Confidential Box: Do not hurt yourself
THE REFLECTION: It is forbidden to hurt yourself.
Aleix Espargaro fell twice today, one in each session held. The second was… “I was going slow and the bike split in two,” Alex commented, explaining that the crash was part of the process of finding the limits of his Aprilia at Motorland. He used the opportunity to prove his determination to win again on a circuit that was always fast. I’m not going to tell Alex how to manage his weekends, but he knows he has 5 of his GPs in his 6 weeks in Aragon, Japan, Thailand, Australia and Malaysia. He manages with more care than usual. Especially in his case as a title contender alongside Fabio Quartararo and Pecco Bagnaia. It is true that Aleix is the most threatened of the three, with him in third place in the interim championship, 33 points behind him by Quartararo, but with 150 points still at stake, It is also true that the little finger is broken. Next he could ruin the entire sequence of five races.
THE ABSENT: Missing Valentino.
Valentino Rossi was last seen in a GP at Mugello in May. It is this absence that championship promoters are ‘fed up with’. Because in a strategy that has been put in place to increase the awareness, popularity and popularity of MotoGP, increasing Valentino’s presence is…how to say, the best possible marketing. motion? Because Rossi is more than an ex-driver. For example, consider what happened at the Portuguese Grand Prix on Sunday. It took Valentino ten minutes to move from the back of the grid to the front row as every guest on the grid asked to take a picture with him! , is a character profile that everyone wants to see together, whether they like racing or not, and is one of the situations that distinguishes MotoGP from F1 today. was rarely seen in GGPP, despite being given the functionality of While it’s true that many are consistent with the World Challenge Tour GT Cup races and practices he runs, those who expected to see Valentino act as a regular VR46 manager were You definitely don’t know Rossi.
Reality: Quantity does not guarantee quality.
Augusto Fernandez’s move to MotoGP within the new Gas Gas team was officially announced this afternoon. With the Mallorcan coming to his MotoGP, 2023 will see him join his 10 Spaniard riders on a 22-man grid. Marquez brothers, Espargaro brothers, Joan Mir, Alex Rins, Jorge his Martin, Maverick Vinales, Fernandez, Raul and Augusto. Yes, there are many, but as we will see this season, quantity does not guarantee results.In the 14 GPs held so far, out of the 9 current Spanish MotoGP riders, only Only one GP. I haven’t done anything since the Argentine Grand Prix in April, even though I uploaded it with every brand except Yamaha. In other words, there’s nothing wrong with that, but quantity doesn’t guarantee quality.

The season finale and Monaco’s failure will be shown. Where are the most overtakes in F1?
The Formula 1 2025 season was full of competition and transitions. Although fewer in number than last year and fans and drivers not always able to enjoy the action on track, there were still plenty of genuine overtakes.
On some routes there were very few, as expected. The fewest overtakes took place in Monaco; There were only four overtakes during the entire race. And most of them were at the season finale, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – 60th.
Below is the exact number of actual overtakes on each stage; this number does not take into account position changes on pit road during the first lap as the driver exits or exits the track. The chart only reflects actual overtaking on the motorway.

Mercedes driver George Russell received a rather unusual Christmas gift from Charles Leclerc as part of Secret Santa.
The Briton received a chart showing his overtakes at the Dutch Grand Prix, arguably one of the most exciting moments of the season.
After unwrapping the gift, Russell said: “Look at him. He’s such a nice guy. He can only overtake illegally, so that’s all he has going for him – taking people off the track. I’m speechless to be honest.”
When asked if he wanted to wish Leclerc a Merry Christmas, the British driver playfully added:
“He doesn’t deserve this. Maybe I’ll give him another photo of Kimi knocking him out of the race and remind him of what happened a few laps later. Thank you Charles. Thank you for nothing.”
🎁 | Amigo secreto!
There is no information that George Russell bought Charles Leclerc.😂
