The latest episode of the Paddock Pass Podcast sees Steve English and Gordon Ritchie discuss an eventful Assen round of WorldSBK. They naturally kick off with a debate over who, if anyone, was to blame in the clash between Jonathan Rea and Toprak Razgatlioglu which blew Race 2 wide open. They talk about how Alvaro Bautista has taken charge of the championship, in part thanks to his penalty in the Superpole race and the win in Race 2.

They go on to discuss where the rest of the field stand after Assen, starting with Honda. Steve and Gordo discuss how well Iker Lecuona has made the transformation from the MotoGP paddock to WorldSBK, they look at how Yamaha are faring, and they discuss the situation at BMW. Then they go on to take a look ahead at the Estoril round, coming up on the weekend of May 22nd.
