Jorge Martin, in the words of co-host Cameron Buckley, why are you the way that you are?

The full trio of hosts come together to make sense of MotoGP's German GP, the final round before the summer break, and with a key chance begging for Jorge Martin to restore his whittled-away Championship lead, he tucks the front and crashes from the lead with just two laps to go and just like that, Pecco Bagnaia wins his fourth on the bounce and fifth in the last six races. 

The gang make sense of that bottling, and the Marquez brothers, who became the first duo to share a MotoGP Premier Class-era podium since 1997. There's also a chat about Fabio Di Giannantonio likely staying at VR46 and claiming factory equipment in what looked to be a big Pramac switch. And more silly season dialogue about Trackhouse Racing, and whether they should take on Joe Roberts in Moto2, Sergio Garcia (The Championship leader), or keep Miguel Oliviera, who was struggling until this weekend. 

And finally, a chat about Kazakhstan being taken off the calendar for good, and Misano replacing it for what will now be a doubleheader. Does Dorna have a problem swinging for the big project rounds that ultimately don't happen? All that on a heaped MotoGP edition of M101!
