Enea Bastianini's MotoGP victory at the Circuit of the Americas this Sunday felt almost inevitable for much of the weekend - but did Marc Marquez's "magnificent" ride prove he should've won instead?The two top-class performances are discussed at length in the latest episode of The Race MotoGP Podcast, featuring Toby Moody, Simon Patterson and Valentin Khorounzhiy.The trio discuss whether Bastianini is now a bona fide 2022 title contender and whether Ducati would really be open to entrusting the hopes of ending its long awaited riders' championship drought to someone riding a year-old Desmosedici for a satellite team.They also talk about Alex Rins' stellar start to the year, Fabio Quartararo's ever-evolving disillusionment with the 2022 Yamaha M1 and KTM's worryingly 2021-esque outing.Finally, the topics of erstwhile points leader Aleix Espargaro's difficult weekend and the state of the Circuit of the Americas track surface after the partial repaving round off the show.
