Paddock Pass Podcast Episode 550: Ducati Dominates Assen WorldSBK, And A MotoGP Perspective On WorldSBK

Ducati’s dominance of the Dutch Round of WorldSBK was completed by a 1-2-3-4-5-6 finish in Race 2. It was a stunning performance by the red bikes and on this week’s pod we break down what we saw at TT Circuit Assen. On this week’s show Steve and Gordo are joined by David Emmett who gives his insight of what he saw, what he liked and what he thought of the WorldSBK paddock.

Having seen him for years in the MotoGP paddock David was interested to see the relaxed and motivated Miguel Oliveira aboard the BMW M1000RR. The rookie has had an up and down campaign at the quarter post but has shown some flashes of potential. Plus, why is Honda struggling so badly to compete in WorldSBK, when they have made so much progress in MotoGP?
