The reigning MotoGP world champion found himself at the heart of a TV war. On Thursday, on the show " The revolt » from RTVE, the show « The Anthill " was directly denounced. David Broncano ("La Revuelta") explained the situation before giving way to the guest, who was ultimately unable to appear.

The battle that exists between "La Revuelta" and "El Hormiguero" is already known to many, and it seems to be getting worse and worse. On Thursday night, something unexpected appeared on social networks, with Jorge Martín as the main protagonist. After the appropriate celebrations in private, the recent world champion had planned a series of television appearances, including these two programs.

On Thursday, November 21, the Aprilia rider was due to appear on the show " The revolt » of RTVE. But everything changed when Pablo Motos' show announced the guests for next week, including the rider concerned. After that, the rider confirmed one of the worst news for David Broncano: he will not participate in his show " The revolt ».

"After so many years, it's time to talk about it. Half an hour before the show started, they told us that 'El Hormiguero' had discovered it. They don't want anyone to come here before they come there, and they pulled their strings.", David Broncano began to explain clearly, before continuing, "They have their own way of putting pressure and Jorge told us he couldn't come. They did what they could do. He told us: 'I can't participate in the show because certain things would happen'"Broncano thus pointed the finger at Pablo Motos and his famous program.

Until a few minutes before his entrance on stage, Jorge Martin was convinced of his appearance on RTVE's "La Revuelta". So much so that the Aprilia rider shared a photo on his social networks to inform his followers of his participation in the show, a photo that he was later forced to delete.

David Broncano said this was not the first time this had happened: "This is not the first time this has happened today, that's why we decided to talk about it directly. The show has destroyed us because it has ruined our work today. This has been going on since 'La Resistencia'. Some guests have said it. There has always been this kind of game on their part."

This could be considered one of the biggest competitive attacks between the two programs. There are many theories about it, but "El Hormiguero" released a statement on Thursday claiming that it was a mistake and a "misunderstanding of little importance".
