Which shirt should I wear?

- The one with diamonds. - Yeah?

It's more difficult than...

Do you want some help?

...than racing against a Ducati.

This is too hard.

Pull the shirt down.

- What do you mean? - Tuck it in.

- I can't button it if it's tucked in. - Forget the briefs!

Button the shirt, then I'll put the pants on you.

The simplest way for beginners

to tie a tie is the four-in-hand knot.

Drape the tie around your neck

so that the wider end hangs on the right.

Now loop the wide end under the narrow end

and pull the left side.

- Which end? - The longer one.

I reckon I can manage getting the jacket on.

Part 5.

- Pecco! - Wait!

- If you start with the top button... - It's easy. I'll show you.

There now!

Feel the power?

Hold on there.

It's a motorbike world championship.

It has crazy riders like us!

The world's 22 best riders

right now.

Fracture of the medial malleolus,

fracture of the metacarpal,

fracture of the right hand scaphoid...

We won't get out of this alive.

I just put my life on the line!

Hang in there all the way!

He turns, sees me, heads up the middle! He deserves to be last!

He's out of sorts.

I learned how to live with wondering about my shoulder, my arm...

It's quite simply all about survival.

We're a bunch of young guns

pushing the old generation out the door.

Do it yourself!

I knew that if I gave it my all, 100%,

I'd eventually get to where I am today.

Damn, he really got me!

It's not fair! This is MotoGP!

Speed, talent, intelligence.

I got my arm x-rayed yesterday.

- You did? - It's healing but isn't totally set yet.

Still not up to your 100%?

It's going to take more time.

If all goes well, I'll have another x-ray in three months.

I'll be at 100% by the end of the year.

It takes a long time.

I'm 28, and still feel young, but I'm close to joining the veterans.

Some leave, others come in, the big wheel keeps spinning.

The thing is to survive and hang in there

as many years as you can,

and enjoy it to the max.

As I saw in 2020, it can all suddenly end.

Hey, Joan. World Champion doesn't mean we wait... Come on.

The pressure is different now.

If I don't win or rank in the top three, it's a lousy turnout for me.

We need to make something if you want to improve the lap time. If not, I cannot.

I'm very serious in a race.

I can't help it, I'm very focused.

But at home, I show a different face.

When the pressure is on,

the best thing is to make sure that the pressure benefits you.

So what I do is

to eliminate the stress by working out.

When you move up a step,

from a satellite team to an official team,

you're there to win, not to place 5th or 6th.

He taught me some exercises

for when I feel stressed, nervous,

or irritated.

Honestly, I'm a lot more relaxed now.

When I was a kid

I'd hear my uncle pull up at the house on his Ducati.

His 996 had

an awesome metallic hum.

My dream was always to race for Ducati in the MotoGP.

A working Aprilia,

not a secondary bike,

the mere name of Aprilia

evokes something over and beyond a secondary bike.

Over the years,

I've matured and become more stable,

I won't put up with this engine!

The goal

in a high-level competition

is to prevent the same riders or teams from monopolizing all the wins.

Valentino is the reason

lots of people have fallen in love with motorcycle racing.

Even more people have fallen in love with him!

We have to remove the ABS completely.

I had the best career

you could imagine.

That sums it up.

Some fans want me to keep going.

Others, outright hate me

and would rather I stopped racing.

Opinions diverge!

A major player like Vale

has to stay in the MotoGP.

He founded

the VR46 Academy.

This structure

is truly top-notch.

It has trained so many young guys

and brought them into MotoGP.

Pecco Bagnaia attended the Academy.

The Academy is a beautiful thing.

It has already saved many careers in my opinion.

You learn respect,

motivation, determination.

It's limited to just 8 riders, plus Vale.

The Petronas team got Franco Morbidelli, the vice World Champion.

Gym workouts, motorbike training,

every kind of training riders can do,

we do them together.

That's a great way to practice!

That's a great way to improve.

You're going at it hard, then wham!

You'll be on an ordinary curve,

and someone will overtake you.

It's a unique concept.

No one has ever done it in this sport.

Really, it was something that came from the heart.

So, on one hand, we're very proud,

but on the other hand, our riders are so good

that now they're my opponents.

Once you're opponents,

things get a little harder to handle.

You need to go to Parc Fermé.

- Yes? - Best independent team.

I'd say Viñales as he's going easy on his tyres.

And here is the final approach!

Viñales is set to win!

Even if you take curves a bit faster,

when you get to the straightaway, it's really hard.

If you're up against more than one Ducati, it's very frustrating.

You're already on the losing end. It's not cool.

Great engine!

That's fine, guys!

In an official team like Ducati,

winning the title is the goal.

We haven't won since 2007.

It has been 14 years, and we're going into the 15th now.

So we really need to win

that big title.

That means a lot of expectations on both Jack and me.

I'm not entirely satisfied.

Jack has worn out his tyres.

I'm telling you, he's really worn them down!

I just start to lose the gas. I lose the rear off gas on the right side.

So I swap on the engine brake, doesn't really help.

I tried my maximum but honestly, I just start to have moment,

after moment, after moment, I say:

at one point I am going to crash here.

I'm sorry boys.

You're thinking:

This is it!

Maverick and Yamaha have ratcheted it up a notch,

in order to compete for the title.

Here we go!

But at the same time, you can't help wondering

if it will be like previous occasions.

During the COVID-19 lockdown,

I had time to reflect and think things over.

I realised I was on the wrong path.

I switched my focus more to my family

and to putting down roots.

I'm going to buy a huge watermelon,

and I'll strap it onto you with some kitchen plastic wrap.

The two of us will spend the whole day like that together!

Raquel and I are expecting a daughter.

We're very happy.

I've been wanting this

for so long.

The opportunity never presented itself.

It was never the right time, never the right woman.

I needed the right person to settle down and have a family with.

She came from out of nowhere.

It was fantastic.

What a slab of meat!

Where are you going with this?

- What are you doing this afternoon? - Training.

What a surprise!

My usual routine!

Are you still cool with keeping the umbilical cord?

Sure.

Supposing,

in the first year,

something happened to you or me,

then we could use their services.

What do you mean?

Oh, I don't know.

If something happened to you,

to your body tissue,

they could use it for reconstruction.

- Tissue? - Yeah, something like that.

At no extra cost.

- At no extra cost? - Yes.

All right! So if I want a facelift?

No! Only serious stuff.

No silly business.

Scurry off, kitty!

Here's Jorge Martín in the final turn!

Eight thousandths is nothing!

It's nothing at all.

Check out Martín!

Look out, Martín is heading for pole position!

Yes!

Martín does 1'53.1

on his second race,

and snags pole position!

Martinator!

Very impressive for a rookie rider!

Awesome!

Great job! Celebrate for us too! Pop the champagne!

Jorge looks likely for the Rookie of the Year title.

A rookie is a newbie in any category.

In my case, I went into the top category at MotoGP.

It's the ranking

that I'd always dreamed of.

It includes the world's 22 best riders.

Jorge needs to cool it!

He's way too sure of himself.

He gives me goose pimples!

Sometimes his own dad throws up his hands.

I have to tell him: "Drop it, he's fine."

He's attainted his goal, he's living his dream.

I'm happy to support him on his path to success.

I wasn't so lucky in my dream of racing. I never made the grade.

Where is he?

Jack!

He can bloody well sod off!

Did it on purpose! Counter investigation!

I don't like Quartararo, guys.

I don't like him.

Come on, go!

Go, go, go!

Watch Quartararo!

We're leading the Championship!

Number one, man!

Just one more lap, and I'd have finished first, right?

You're the best!

We'll talk later.

- Damn, he came right at me! - Yes, we saw.

I didn't do it on purpose.

I just came in, and he...

I'd been on a podium before, I couldn't believe I'd made it

in the MotoGP.

Come on, let's go!

I still can't believe I'm a MotoGP rider.

I come from a poor family.

A hard-working family.

This is incredible for me.

Sometimes when the maid is short on space,

she hangs laundry on the bike!

She has no idea what the bike is worth!

Finding yourself at that level, it's like:

Wow, we have an incredible year ahead of us.

A super nice year!

I often remind the lads in the box:

"Guys, we're just rookies."

I try to play things down, especially for the rider.

We expect a lot from him because he's talented,

but he has a lot to learn,

and he's going to make mistakes.

Get in your bed, now!

Bedtime!

Poor thing!

- See you later. - She looks so sad!

See you later!

ALGARVE INTERNATIONAL RACING CIRCUIT

The other roundabout?

Oh, it must be the same way.

What's happening?

Amazing!

Excellent.

Thanks!

- Good luck! - Thanks.

Thanks so much.

I'm the first and only Portuguese MotoGP rider.

I always thought that if I ever got the chance to race in Portugal,

I'd absolutely have to win it.

And that's what happened.

It was a victory in my own country

on my first time racing MotoGP in Portugal.

This has been on loop all day.

Last year... Featuring you.

You saw me a couple of times already.

Cool.

A lot of free time at home, man.

It was the best period of my sports career.

The high point! Then it all went downhill.

I think my greatest fear was that I might never get on a bike again.

The biggest lesson I learned is I only have one body,

but there are lots of races.

I must take care of my body

so that it lasts many more years.

We can come out when...

- When there are six laps left. - Yes.

- Shall I do the math? - Yes.

I'm the person

who is the closest to the rider.

If this were football, I'd be the coach.

In order to run 6 laps,

you need to get out with 12 or 11 minutes left.

That's based on the current timings.

In 14 minutes, I'll put my helmet on and go on out.

- Remember our exit strategy. - Right.

- Alright? - Fine.

Marc and I have a professional relationship.

Of course, over the years, it has grown into a real friendship.

There's nobody in the other boxes.

Those 4 reporters are all here.

- Totally motionless. - I'll say!

- You seem to be really tight. - No, I'm fine.

You'll look alright.

It was fine. I'd say the rhythm was good.

Yes, your rhythm is great.

Your elbow is a little high.

Yeah, but it comes naturally. I don't do it on purpose.

I don't know how other teams' managers work.

How they use their humanity or psychology,

or lies, or success.

It's really hard. You never know.

But in the end,

you have to make the rider go fast.

That's the only goal this weekend.

It's really dangerous, isn't it?

We don't slow down on dry patches, right?

I have to go so slowly that it skids more on dry asphalt

when I lean into the curves.

The tyres are cold.

- What about these tyres? - I won't have them!

You won't? Alright, OK.

No, it's really dangerous.

- Oh, what a fall! - Pramac...

We don't know how the bike...

We don't know

whether it's Zarco.

Is he hurt?

I can't tell.

As you enter that curve...

Oh, it's Martín.

He fell right after he went out.

That's because when he took the curve, the tyres weren't ready.

They've only just come out.

He probably tried to warm the tyres too fast,

to try to improve

his lap time.

He had time though.

Rookie mistake.

I don't think he saw it, and...

No! Martín crashed. Let's not be too specific.

I told you yesterday

that the tyres get cold because the pit lane is too long.

And everybody was like: "No, no."

Oh, what a crash!

When I saw that they'd covered him up,

I really got scared

because of how bad it looked.

You never get used to seeing your son get hurt.

I told Jorge several times: "Come on, Jorge, please!

Give up riding!

You suffer so much."

What's the temperature?

Isn't it 12°C?

No, 14.

I mean it was at 12, but your body temperature raises it 2°.

Stop that!

Knock it off!

How much longer?

I'm freezing.

Right in the first curve! Calm down, boys!

Jack.

What braking, right?

Come on! Good!

God, what braking!

Son of a bitch!

Bloody hell!

He's got it worse than us!

Well done, man!

Thanks, guys!

I was there and as soon as I got the brakes pretty much...

straight out from underneath me on the angle.

That was my fault.

I was there, here...

It was my mistake.

Thanks!

- You are part of the team. - Yeah, I was clapping, don't worry.

Yeah. I am so proud.

We'll wait for him there and clap, OK?

Consistency and perseverance are the keys for any kind of success.

And when confronted with adversity,

some people give up before others.

You've got it or you haven't.

That moment isn't planned in advance.

Everyone expresses it in their own way.

At that moment, everything stops.

Right then,

you could really see the person

behind the idol of the great athlete.

I got to the box and I fell apart.

And well, it's been...

...it's been tough.
