In the latest MotoGP gossip, Dorna CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta doesn’t ‘dream’ of having a MotoGP title finish similar to that of F1, while Joan Mir has ‘expressed’ his opinion to Suzuki in regards to the team filling its MotoGP Team Manager role.

Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports, has acknowledged that a MotoGP title decider with an outcome similar to the one we saw in F1 would be bad for the sport., Ezpeleta said:"I would not like to have a MotoGP finish like the one in F1. I wish there were two drivers fighting for the title in the last race, but the way the whole thing played out... Not for or against anything.

"I like to have a championship that if possible goes until the very end, but I don't like that after the end they create doubt, that the runner-up doesn't talk anymore. I certainly don't dream about it."For those who don’t know, the F1 title decider was dominated by Lewis Hamilton who looked set to win an eighth world championship before a late safety car allowed Max Verstappen to pit for fresh tyres.

The decision to only allow some lapped cars to unlap themselves is unusual as Article 48.12 of the F1 regulations suggests a message reading ‘lapped cars may now overtake’ should be sent to all competitors. The closest controversy MotoGP has had in recent seasons was the fall out between Marc Marquez and Valentino Rossi at Sepang in 2015. After countless laps of fierce racing, Marquez crashed when the two made contact at turn 14.
