This episode sees Jordan and I discussing — and at times disagreeing about — the latest action from MotoGP at Balaton Park Circuit in Hungary, the Monaco Grand Prix, IndyCar, and the BTCC at Oulton Park.

We chat about the battle between the pretender to the throne, Pedro Acosta, and the current king, Marc Márquez, as they continue their fight for supremacy. We also discuss the incredible rise of Kimi Antonelli, who continues to impress on the biggest stage, plus Ash Sutton leading the BTCC standings heading into the summer break (with the other Hamilton picking up some valuable points too!).

And over in IndyCar, Josef Newgarden continues his remarkable run at one of his favourite oval circuits.

As always, there’s plenty to discuss, debate, disagree on, and laugh about along the way.

This episode was an absolute delight for Jordan and I to record…mainly because it was an absolute delight watching MotoGP at Mugello!

An Italian rider, on an Italian bike, winning in Italy…yes, Marco Bezzecchi and Aprilia did the honours in stunning fashion. Pecco Bagnaia arguably had his strongest weekend in months, while an injured Marc Marquez was still impressively competitive throughout.

Elsewhere, Moto3 delivered the usual chaos and excitement, Manuel Gonzalez dominated Moto2, Alex Palou just keeps on winning in IndyCar after another victory in Detroit, and Mick Schumacher looked on course for a podium before a rather unfortunate “rookie” error cost him dearly.

Oh…and Toprak Razgatlioglu winning again in WSBK? That’s now 22 victories…predictable at this point!!! 😂

Add in fresh Ferrari and Charles Leclerc contract talk ahead of his home race in the glamorous streets of Monaco, and there was LOTS for Jordan and I to get stuck into.

Headaches…they are not pleasant are they really…Toto has a headache, and potentially a big one…with both of his drivers on the verge of knocking lumps out of each other’s cars, it’s going to be a fascinating battle in the Mercedes F1 camp.

Jordan and I discuss all the action from last weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix, where McLaren faulted, Lewis was in great form, and plenty of other talking points emerged over the weekend.

Should women race in F1? Indy 500 drama with the closest finish in history, Ross Brawn linked with MotoGP?!, action-packed BTCC at Snetterton with the Sutton vs Ingram rivalry stepping up another level, plus Nick Hamilton’s incredible achievement winning the Jack Sears Trophy…you had a tear in your eye didn’t you…

Much was discussed… and plenty more besides!!!

It was chaos…pure chaos.

And honestly, Jordan and I are probably quite glad this particular MotoGP weekend is over.

What should have been another brilliant weekend of racing turned into a reminder that motorsport is dangerous and always will be. Two red flags in the main MotoGP race brought plenty of debate — should race control simply have stopped things after the first red flag? Or did they get it right trying to continue?

There’s also the question surrounding Joan Mir and tyre pressure penalties…should riders really be punished for something that can sometimes be out of their control during chaotic race conditions?

Then there’s Pedro Acosta…just how good is he? Because what he’s doing on machinery that still doesn’t quite look capable of matching the front runners is seriously impressive.

And speaking of impressive, Fabio Di Giannantonio claimed his second MotoGP victory in what is rapidly becoming his most consistent season yet. Quietly going about his business while others grab the headlines, but is it now time to start looking at him as a genuine title contender?

Meanwhile, Jorge Martín once again found himself crashing…and crashing again.

Down the classes, Manuel González showed real class and control in Moto2, while in Moto3, Máximo Quiles looks like he’s operating on another level entirely right now.

And it wasn’t only MotoGP causing headlines…

With the legendary Indianapolis 500 approaching, practice sessions have already delivered drama, crashes and nervous moments. Álex Palou starts on pole — surely he’s the favourite? Then again…motorsport has a habit of making fools of predictions.

Add in action from Formula E, BSB, WSBK, plus heartbreak for Max Verstappen whose Nürburgring 24-hour outing ended with mechanical failure, and it really was one of those weekends where racing never stopped delivering drama.

We discuss, debate and probably rant our way through one of the busiest and maddest weekends of motorsport we’ve had in a long time… buckle up.

How much more can Marc Márquez’s body take after his crash in last weekend’s MotoGP sprint race? That was just one of the big talking points Jordan and I discussed as we reflected on all the action from the incredible French motorcycle Grand Prix weekend at Bugatti Circuit.

Jorge Martín is definitely up for a battle with team mate Marco Bezzecchi for the world championship, while other riders experienced very mixed weekends across MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3.

Mixed conditions in the British Touring Car Championship at Brands Hatch Indy Circuit didn’t stop Ash Sutton’s relentless march towards another championship title.

And McLaren finally won a race!!! Not in F1… but in IndyCar at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where surprisingly Álex Palou didn’t even feature on the podium.

Meanwhile, the FIA World Endurance Championship race at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps produced a slightly unexpected BMW 1-2 result.

This episode of The Apex Podcast sees Jordan and I reflecting on last week’s F1, Formula E, WSBK & BSB action, along with the incredibly sad news surrounding the passing of one of motorsport’s genuinely nicest people, Alex Zanardi.

From his horrific IndyCar crash in 2001 that changed his life forever, to becoming a multiple Paralympic gold medalist and an inspiration to millions around the world, his story remains nothing short of remarkable.

We also chatted about how the ‘Concorde Agreement’ situation appears to be delaying announcements in MotoGP, how McLaren seem to be getting ever closer to where they belong again, and whether Franco Colapinto was arguably driver of the day in Miami.

Plus, has George Russell now got a team mate capable of putting him in the shade, with the hugely talented Kimi Antonelli continuing to impress?

So much F1 to talk about…plus plenty more motorsport discussion along the way 🏁

Jordan and I dive into the rollercoaster that was the MotoGP weekend at Jerez — featuring what might just be the best sprint race yet, with mixed conditions throwing up a completely unexpected podium. Alex Márquez dominated from start to finish, sealing his second win at his home circuit, while Aprilia’s recent dominance finally hit a pause.

We also chat about Quiles continuing his impressive run in Moto3, and what could have been for Alonso in Moto2 if not for a poor start. Away from the bikes, we cover Alan McNish’s return to the F1 paddock as Audi’s sporting director, the Turkish Grand Prix making its comeback next season, and how Sylvain Guintoli and Sebastian Vettel got on at the London Marathon.

Another wait was finally over—and the roar of touring cars signalled the start of a brand-new season at Donington Park.

In this episode, Jordan and I dive headfirst into the opening rounds of the British Touring Car Championship, where the usual mix of chaos, contact, and close racing didn’t disappoint. One of the big talking points was how Jason Plato’s team fared as the season got underway—still early days, but plenty to unpack as the project begins to take shape. Meanwhile, Ash Sutton wasted no time stamping his authority on the grid, already looking like a serious title contender even at this early stage.

We also highlight the continued determination of Nicholas Hamilton, whose presence in a competitive field remains one of the most inspiring and compelling stories in the paddock—proving once again that he belongs on merit.

Across the Atlantic, it was another statement drive from Alex Palou, taking victory at the iconic Grand Prix of Long Beach in IndyCar Series. Naturally, that sparked a bigger debate: is Palou now firmly in the conversation as one of the top five motorsport drivers in the world?

Over in the Superbike World Championship, Nicolò Bulega continued his dominant run with another victory at the legendary TT Circuit Assen. It raises the question—are we witnessing the start of a runaway season, or will the competition close the gap as the calendar unfolds?

All this and much more features in a weekend packed with action—even in the absence of Formula One and MotoGP.

It feels like our second home…that’s what Jordan and I always say whenever we head to Silverstone Circuit.

Over the years, we’ve experienced it in just about every way possible—watching Formula One, MotoGP and British Touring Car Championship, seeing Jordan compete in Formula Student, cycling 50 miles around the track, and even running a half marathon on this iconic circuit.

In this episode, we’re chatting about everything that makes Silverstone so special to us—from camping and race-day atmosphere to getting involved in activities, live concerts, great food, and even meeting riders. It’s the full experience of visiting one of the world’s most famous racing circuits—and why we keep coming back.

Is it ever too early to start talking about the future in motorsport? We don’t think so…

With only a handful of races gone in both Formula 1 and MotoGP, the rumour mill is already spinning at full speed. Whispers of driver moves, rider switches, contract clauses, and even potential retirements are beginning to surface across both paddocks—and you know we couldn’t ignore it.

In this episode, Jordan and I dive headfirst into the early “silly season” chatter. Who might be on the move by 2027? Which teams could be lining up big changes behind the scenes? And which riders and drivers might already be under pressure just a few races into the season?

Alongside all the speculation, we also reflect on the opening races, discuss current form, and give our honest take on who’s impressing—and who might need to start looking over their shoulder.

It’s topical, it’s opinionated, and as always… there may be a few disagreements along the way.
