Toby talks to... Sylvain Guintoli, world champion racer and pundit - a podcast by The Race Media Ltd

The latest episode in our 'Toby talks' interview series sees Toby Moody sit down for a chat with old friend Sylvain Guintoli, a world champion in two different categories (World Superbike and Endurance World Championship) and a man who has raced and tested MotoGP bikes extensively.
In typical jovial style, the Frenchman discusses the highs and lows of his career; his start in 250s, his move into MotoGP, his short spell in British Superbikes, his championship-winning campaign in World Superbikes, and his latter day move into MotoGP punditry.Along the way there are amusing stories behind the various deals he’s signed over the years, anecdotes about overtaking Valentino Rossi on home soil, and a vivid description of what it takes to get a MotoGP bike off the line quickly. Amongst other things, there's also discussion about his crucial role developing Suzuki's 2020 title-winning MotoGP bike, whether countryman Johan Zarco will ever win a MotoGP race, and what makes Marc Marquez so special.
