MotoGP World Champion Jorge Martin sits down with Gypsy Tales for Chapter 406 and one of the most raw and wide ranging conversations of the Euro Trip. From a crash that nearly took his life to the pressure of fighting for a MotoGP World Championship, Jorge opens up like never before.

Jorge relives the terrifying Qatar crash that left him with a punctured lung and multiple injuries, revealing how the experience changed his perspective on life forever. He opens up about the championship battle with Pecco Bagnaia, their friendship that dates back to Moto3, and the mind games that unfolded during one of the closest title fights in MotoGP history.

The conversation also dives deep into the technical side of the sport. Jorge explains just how extreme modern MotoGP bikes have become, why riders rarely use their machines at full potential, and what surprised him most about moving from Ducati to Aprilia. He also shares his passion for American supercross and motocross, the riders he grew up watching, and why he remains one of the biggest fans of the sport.
