Silverstone produced a mega British Grand Prix weekend as Marco Bezzecchi claimed a shock victory for the Aprilia MotoGP squad.

It couldn’t have come at a better time for all parties given the unstable future of reigning champion Jorge Martin – but will that win and Aprilia CEO Massimo Rivera's plea for Martin to stay hold up?

That is of course discussed in the latest episode of Tank Slappers. There's also a discussion on the heartbreaking rear ride-height device failure that almost certainly cost Yamaha's Fabio Quartararo his first victory in nearly three years.

The trio react to the emotional outpouring from the French rider and the solace Yamaha can take from the performance.

Also on the podcast, Ducati's surprise struggles in Britain, Pedro Acosta's possible ultimatum to the bosses at KTM, Johann Zarco scoring another podium for Honda, and what the British GP can do to attract more fans as fewer than 100,000 were present for the weekend.
