It all comes down to #TheDecider at the Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana. Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) has a 23-point lead over Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™) coming into the final round of the 2022 MotoGP™ season, so here’s how both riders can claim his maiden premier class title.
Bagnaia, World Champion in Valencia if…
- Quartararo doesn’t win
- He finishes P14 or higher
- He finishes P15 and Quartararo doesn’t win
Quartararo, World Champion in Valencia if…
- He wins and Bagnaia is P15 or lower
The maths for Quartararo is simple: the Frenchman must win to stand any chance of retaining his MotoGP™ title. Anything less will hand Bagnaia the 2022 crown.
Whatever happens, we’re in for a fascinatingly tense few days in Valencia.
