The new MotoGP concessions system was introduced at the end of the 2023 season – ICYMI, take a refresher look here of what each rank means. Since Day 1 of its introduction, there has only been one rank change – Honda have just gone from Rank D to Rank C – but the numbers beyond the ranks make for interesting reading. Here’s a rundown for everyone not making their own spreadsheet:
DUCATI
The Borgo Panigale factory remain top dogs, and the only factory in Rank A. But they end 2025 with 94% of possible points, down from the 98% they had at both the 2025 summer checkpoint and the end of 2024 checkpoint.
That’s interesting enough given their imperious run with Marc Marquez – and then the #93’s injury hit end of season.
APRILIA
From their end of season run, the Noale factory would seem like they’re on the verge of attacking for Rank B, but not yet. Given the end of year checkpoint takes into account the whole season, there’s a clear uptick but they remain some way off a move in Rank.
Their form is the best they’ve ever had though – and after they won the most races this season in their history: four Grands Prix. Having been at 49% in summer 2024, the end of that year saw them drop to 41%, and at the end of the first half of 2025 – with two new riders and then-reigning Champion Jorge Martin sidelined for much of it – it was down to 37%. After a stunning run for Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia Racing) in the latter half of the year, including back-to-back wins to close it out, added to Raul Fernandez’s win with Trackhouse MotoGP team in Australia, they close out 2025 on 51%. That’s never been higher.
KTM
KTM end 2025 on 46% – a clear uptick from their 40% at the summer break checkpoint. It’s not their highest ever, but it’s a good re-start after a tough winter and start to 2025.
At the end of 2024 they were on 44%, so there has been – overall – a small step as they aim to take an even bigger one for 2026.
HONDA
The movers and shakers – by the smallest of margins – in 2025. After their toughest run ever in the latter half of 2024, they were down to a shocking 10% of total possible points scored – the lowest any factory has been in 20 years, discounting a debut season. But Honda is Honda and they’re already showing it once again.
From that 10% in winter 2024, they were at 23% by summer 2025, and now they’re on 35% – just enough to change up to Rank C, but it went down to the very final race of the year as Luca Marini (Honda HRC Castrol) took the exact P7 they needed to move up.
YAMAHA
Yamaha are on a tough run but they’re also making big moves, and big moves beyond the numbers. Officially kissing goodbye to their previous engine configuration on Sunday in Valencia, the Iwata marque rolled out with only V4-powered YZR-M1s in their garages in the Tuesday test. Only a year before a huge change in regulations, that’s a huge statement of commitment.
After the first half of the new concession system, they had 21% of possible points. It dropped to a low of 17% at the end of 2024 and then went back up to 25% in summer 2025. By the end of this season, it’s up further to 30% – so already a good step up 12 months on from their lowest. Where will the V4-powered YZ1-M1 take the factory next?
