MotoGP world champion Fabio Quartararo's annoyance at the bike Yamaha has provided him with for his title defence got even louder at the final pre-season test in Mandalika.

Is it just a negotiating tactic for a pay rise or a longer contract? Or would Quartararo really walk out on Yamaha?

Is Pol Espargaro's Honda seat vulnerable if he does so? And does he risk burning bridges with the team behind his MotoGP rise?

Simon Patterson, Valentin Khorounzhiy and stand-in host Matt Beer tackle those questions as The Race MotoGP Podcast delves into everything that went on in the Mandalika test.

Our panel explains exactly why the track surface was so problematic, and could still be in parts when MotoGP makes its racing debut there next month.

The massive progress Honda and Suzuki seem to have made, a few signs of vulnerability at Ducati, and MotoGP's latest concerning incident involving concussion are just some of the other topics addressed.

And with MotoGP's answer to Drive to Survive hitting Amazon Prime soon, we look at the paddock's hopes and fears for its equivalent of the documentary series that has done so much for Formula 1's growth.
