I'm looking forward to listening to this one. Alex was always a good follow on twitter when he was at Yamaha and Ducati with Rossi. It's also a reminder how mechanics and other team members careers can change or end when riders change teams or retire.

Loved it, Alex is such a great storyteller and explainer of all things technical 👍

Listened to it today. Really enjoyed it, so interesting.

I really enjoyed the podcast. I always liked Alex (and his wife) on twitter. He seems like a good dude all around.

I enjoyed that so very much. I’ve heard generic comments about certain manufacturers being inflexible so the anecdotes he shared give so much more context. I sincerely find learning about nuts and bolts… riveting.

Brilliant. Thanks for this.

This pod is a new Oxley Bom lap record - one hour and 22 minutes! And as Alex said “We barely scratched the surface!”. Has always been a great pleasure to chat to Alex. I still miss him and JB in the paddock. They like a beer as much as I do 😎✊🍻

I loved all the behind the scenes stories in that episode! That was the era I started watching MotoGP and it brought it all alive again!

What a shame that he is not around motogp paddock anymore 😥
