Show Notes
Two blokes, one car, a couple of dodgy AirPods and the long road to Phillip Island!
Gavin and Neil are reunited for a rather unusual edition of Gas It Out, recorded as they drive through the Australian night towards the final MotoGP weekend at one of the sport's most iconic circuits.
It's a bittersweet farewell to Phillip Island, but there's no shortage of drama ahead. Just two points separate Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez in the World Championship, and with Aprilia's apparent advantage, Marquez's love of left-hand corners and some typically unpredictable Australian weather on the horizon, who comes out on top?
We reminisce about our favourite Phillip Island memories, from Neil's disastrous first trip in 1995 to the great races, great riders and unforgettable moments that have made the Island so special.
There's also the latest news from the paddock, including Honda's rider plans for 2027, Toprak's injury and the ongoing championship battles.
And finally, we've been to Adelaide! After spending the day investigating the proposed new MotoGP "street" circuit (not on the streets), we share what we've seen, what might work, what concerns us and why the controversy surrounding the city's Park Lands is proving such a difficult issue. An end of an era, the beginning of another, and a slightly strange way to record a podcast.
If you check out YouTube soon, there'll also be footage from our Adelaide reconnaissance to give you a better idea of what the proposed circuit could look like. Check out YouTube for a video version of the pod, and get in contact with the boys @gasitoutpod on Instagram. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

All that drama, and what have we got to show for it? Exactly the same two-point gap between Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez at the top of the MotoGP World Championship!
Marc Márquez looks different right now. More serious, more focused and, as Neil puts it, completely locked in.
Moto2 World Champion. MotoGP podium finisher. KTM development rider. TV pundit. And still bloody fast.
MotoGP heads east, and the championship is entering the pressure cooker.
Pedro Acosta is finally a MotoGP winner - and what a way to do it!
