Punti

Piloti e Costruttori competono per i rispettivi Campionati del Mondo e Gran Premi. Le squadre si danno battaglia per il Campionato MotoGP Team, che è diverso dal Campionato Costruttori, come del resto sono diverse le squadre che competono sulla stessa moto.

For riders, the points that count towards their World Championship total are those gained in each race. For Constructors, only the highest placed motorcycle of a given Constructor earns points, according to the position in the race.

Teams in the MotoGP™ class are in principle comprised of two riders. All points scored by both riders in the Team, including substitutes or replacements, count towards the Team Championship. In the case of a one rider Team, only the points scored by that rider count towards the Team Championship. Wild card riders do not score points for the Team Championship.

Per ogni gara i punti per il campionato vengono assegnati in questa maniera:

I risultati di tutte le gare contano per la classifica del Campionato del Mondo (non è sempre stato cosi).

In the event of a tie in the number of points, the final positions will be decided on the basis of the number of best results (number of first places, number of second places, etc.). In the event that there is still a tie then, the date in the Championship at which the highest place was achieved will be taken into account-with precedence going to the latest result.
