On Wednesday morning in Valencia, Neil Morrison and David Emmett sat down to take a look back at a dramatic MotoGP weekend at Valencia, and to look forward to 2020 after the first day of the Valencia test. There was an awful lot to talk about in what turned out to be one of the craziest weekends in years.

The* biggest news was of course the retirement of Jorge Lorenzo. We look at how it came about, and take a look at his record in MotoGP. And we discuss where Lorenzo rates among the greats of history. Lorenzo's departure left a vacancy in the most prestigious team in the paddock, and we chew over the decision to put Alex Marquez in the Repsol Honda team alongside his brother Marc. Will this work out? And what long-term implications will this have?
