After an extended hiatus (blame kids and Covid) World Superbike Champion Neil Hodgson and MotoGP broadcaster Gavin Emmett are back with a brand new season of “Gas It Out”, but this time they've brought along a pal for the ride! The TNT Sports pundits chat about what’s going on in the world of motorcycle racing alongside the most British Frenchman in existence and WSBK AND Endurance World Champion Sylvain Guintoli. Oh la la!

MotoGP is back (at last!), and Jerez feels like a big one. Gav, Neil and Sylvain look ahead to the Spanish Grand Prix and ask whether this is the weekend that could shape the title fight, with pressure building on Marc Marquez and Ducati in the face of Aprilia and Marco Bezzecchi.
There is also a look back at SG’s Le Mans 24 Hours effort before he heads straight into the London Marathon in full leathers for charity, plus a review of the WorldSBK action from Assen, where Nicolo Bulega and Ducati again laid down a marker.

MotoGP Q&A | 850s, reserve riders and Sylvain’s BSB comeback?
A Qatar-less week means it is time for a full Gas It Out Q&A.
Gav, Neil and Sylvain dive into a stack of your questions, from MotoGP’s planned reserve rider rules to whether the 2027 850cc era could repeat the old 800cc problems. There is chat about Marc Márquez, Marco Bezzecchi and Jorge Martín in the title fight, Yamaha’s V4 development, Ducati’s direction, and why Friday can make or break a whole MotoGP weekend.
There is also a proper catch-up with Sylvain after BSB testing at Donington, plus a look ahead to his huge few weeks with the Le Mans 24 Hours this weekend and the London Marathon the next.
Along the way, there is concern for Aleix Espargaró after his testing crash, debate over sprint-race grids, some commentary talkback nightmares, and one of the more ridiculous questions we have ever had on the pod.
If in doubt, Gas It Out.

Kevin Schwantz | A life spent sideways
He was cool before motorcycle racing knew how to market cool. Sending it way before Full Send became a thing.
In this special episode of Gas It Out, Gavin Emmett, Neil Hodgson and Sylvain Guintoli sit down with 1993 500cc World Champion Kevin Schwantz at his Texas ranch for a funny, honest and often fascinating deep dive into one of the most captivating careers the sport has ever seen. Brief but brilliant.
From motocross beginnings to Grand Prix glory, Schwantz reflects on the fearless style, fierce rivalries and split-second decisions that made him a legend. He talks Rainey, Roberts, Doohan, Rossi and Marquez, the brutality of the 500s, the weight of winning a world title, and the moment he knew it was finally time to walk away.
There are brilliant stories, proper racing nuggets, and a real sense of what made Schwantz such a unique rider - flamboyant, all-action, and always absolutely committed.
A life spent sideways, and not much regret about any of it.

[…] It wasn't a horsepower track, wasn't it? It wasn't necessarily a track that suited the Ducati. It's got one of the shortest straights on the calendar. Top speed-wise, what is it? They're not even about 300 kms, aren't they? Yeah, it's slow. It's about 180 down towards turn six, Danny Pedrosa corner. […]
