For our first episode of 2022 we're switching our attention to 2023... in line with the series' tendency to finalise rider contracts a year in advance.
Host Matt Beer - filling in for Toby Moody, away on Dakar Rally duties - is joined by Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy to discuss the biggest question marks of the impending 2023 rider market.
With only three riders signed through '23, the trio ponder whether the series' two latest champions Joan Mir and Fabio Quartararo could really be on the move - with both having made it clear that they will be listening to offers.
They also consider the futures of the likes of Suzuki's Alex Rins, KTM's Miguel Oliveira and Ducati's Jack Miller - as well as looking into potential reshuffles in the satellite rosters.
At the end of the show, they finalise their rough mock-up of the 2023 grid.
