2019 promises to be a big year for Jack Miller. Having a season at Ducati under his belt, the Australian will attack the new season aboard a GP19, a similar spec to the factory riders.

A new dawn beckons for Scott Redding in 2019. An eleven-year stint in the grand prix paddock came to an end last November at a murky Valencia. But rather than longing for the past, the Englishman was upbeat, and already looking ahead to the challenges ahead.

Finding a replacement for the rush that comes with elite competition can take on many forms. For Max Biaggi, six-time a world champion, a full-time return to the grand prix paddock feels like “a kind of pure adrenaline.”

In terms of podiums, Suzuki has just enjoyed its best season in the four-stroke MotoGP era. Nine top threes, added to Alex Rins’ fine end of the season gives the factory momentum and has it going into the winter break believing wins are possible in 2019.

After a stunning first year in MotoGP, KTM was forced into a reality check in 2018, as it didn’t quite match the lofty expectations it set itself back in March. Injuries had a good deal to with it, and with this in mind, one of the year’s more intriguing signings took place.

As his second season in MotoGP wraps up, Crash.net spoke to Monster Yamaha Tech3’s Johann Zarco to look over his time with the French squad and the next step of his career with Red Bull KTM.

During the Australian MotoGP at Phillip Island, Crash.net sat down with Monster Yamaha Tech 3’s Hafizh Syahrin to talk about life as Malaysia’s first premier class rider, the steep learning process he’s experienced and his role in the country’s continued rise in the sport ahead of his home

There can be no doubting 2018 has been a year in which Luca Marini has come of age. Now 21 years old, one of Italy’s great hopes for the future has recently proven his worthyness of a place alongside Moto2 championship favourite Francesco Bagnaia in the Sky Racing VR46 team.

An exclusive interview with former 125cc world champion and double Moto2 title runner-up Tom Luthi, who finally joined MotoGP this season with the Marc VDS Honda team.

It's back to the future for Sam Lowes next season, the Brit banking on a familiar Gresini, Kalex and Ohlins recipe as Moto2 faces its first major engine and electronic shake-up.

During the build-up to the British MotoGP – before it was cancelled – Crash.net caught up with Moto2 world title contender Miguel Oliveira to chat about all things orange at KTM, his early preparations for his move up to MotoGP and what his dentistry studies mean to him.

Crash.net sat down with Aleix Espargaro at Assen to discuss a variety of issues, including the 2018 season to date, becoming a father and whether he sees himself racing until he’s 40.

Kevin Schwantz will always be remembered as one of the sport’s great entertainers. As well as his cavalier riding style, exuberant celebrations, and rivalry with fellow-American Wayne Rainey, the 1993 500cc World Champion’s on-track antics became the stuff of legend.

KTM rarely does things by halves. Just four races into 2018, the Austrian factory’s second season in MotoGP, and next year is already firmly in focus. Not only was test rider Mika Kallio on track with a prototype ’19 RC16 at the Spanish Grand Prix.

It’s been quite a start to the season for Francesco Bagnaia. Still relatively fresh from announcing a deal that will see him climb to the MotoGP class in 2019, the young Italian has secured his first and second wins in Moto2 in the opening three races of the year.

John McPhee has stated his aim for 2018 is to be regularly among the podium places and challenging for race wins as he prepares for his sixth season in the Moto3 class.

After an absence from the grand prix paddock of nearly a year, Danny Kent returns to Moto2 action in Qatar this weekend as he bids to resuscitate his grand prix career with Speed Up Racing.

Sam Lowes flies to Qatar this week with a point to prove. Returning to the Moto2 class in 2018 after a troubled rookie MotoGP campaign with Aprilia, the Englishman is eager to remind the paddock of his talents while beginning his fight for a second world title.

His rider was absent in Thailand through injury, but Paul Trevathan, crew chief to Pol Espargaro, was still on site to navigate stand-in Mika Kallio through the three-day test and attempt to maintain the rapidly-gained momentum that has seen KTM become contenders for MotoGP’s top ten in just over
