MotoGP Season Ends on an Aprilia Cliffhanger - Is Ducati in Trouble Next Year?
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025

Valencia opened with Ducati, but ended overwhelmingly with Aprilia - is 2026 set for a showdown between the Italian manufacturers? I break down the ValenciaGP action, talk about what it means for the balance of power in MotoGP, and recap the Championship! The Rundown:- Qualifying - Bezz sets the pace, Pecco continues his slide, but the gap at the top shows how close the best manufacturers really are- The Sprint - The media said Bezz would win, Gresini's team manager said Acosta would win, but neither got it quite right- The MotoGP Race - Aprilia ends the year with a bang, their top rider leading the way, with an impressive Valencia surprise just behind- Third place races were where the action was at all weekend- Acosta is disappointed, but shouldn't be- Honda loses one level of concessions - should they have?- MotoGP Championship Picture - how the final battles worked out- My take on Valencia- What does the season finale mean for 2026? Are we on the verge of an Aprilia-Ducati championship? Or will Marc Marquez tip the scales back toward Ducati?What did you think of Valencia? Let me know on Facebook or the Motoweek Reddit Sub.Find all of the latest episodes at Motoweek.net, follow on Bluesky and Instagram – and you can support the show on Patreon!Thanks for listening!
