We also talk IndyCar at Road America, where Josef Newgarden put together a brilliant performance to hold off a resurgent Ryan-Hunter Reay, and Alexander Rossi drew controversy for not one, but two controversial incidents on track with Robert Wickens and Takuma Sato!

Lorenzo lays the hammer. Welcome back to #BikeLive as Andre Harrison and Louis Suddaby review the action from a packed weekend in Catalunya, and at Snetterton!

So, pretty quiet 10 days huh? Andre Harrison and Louis Suddaby are back to break down another ridiculous weekend in bike racing as MotoGP headed back to Mugello, the blue ribbon event on the calendar! In MotoGP, it was Jorge Lorenzo who at the 24th time of asking, would become just the 7th man to ever win for multiple manufacturers, and he'd do it in dominant fashion. Andrea Dovizioso made it a 1-2 for the Ducati team, with a dream pole for Rossi being converted into 3rd as Marquez crashed from 2nd! In Moto2's race of the year, Miguel Oliveira used his smarts to win a tight race with Iron Balda, Joan Mir and Francisco Bagnaia in a leading group of 4!

In Race 2, Alexander Rossi dominated the early going, but went too hard on his tyres and paid the price as a rampant Hunter-Reay caught up the extra stop and reeled the youngster in, beating him via a puncture in the late going! All that and a lot more here, enjoy!

...No, I don't know how we dragged this into an hour either. Oh right, because Formula 2 was a MILLION times better!

We mention SuperSport 300 and the ASS WHOPPING Ana Carassco laid out as she won an 11 lap race by 13.8 seconds, and made history as the first won to qualify on pole (By a second, mind you), and the first to lead a World Championship! And in the main event, Jonathan Rea became the all-time wins and doubles leader with a dominant double victory, as a gut punch to Chaz Davies, and anyone else fighting for the title! Enjoy!

In this episode, Sportscars are the name of the game as the WEC took centre stage for the opening round of its 2018-19 Super Season with the 6 hours of Spa.
