Pick a championship tab: riders, constructors (manufacturers) or teams. The standings show each name's title status and the best and worst place it can still finish. Select a name to see what it needs: whether it wins the title just by winning every remaining race, what would clinch the title or end its hopes at the next round, and who can still finish ahead of it. Every answer is worked out exactly from the points still available, and the page is redone after each Sprint and Grand Prix.
How to read this: every statement is exact. It assumes each remaining Sprint pays 12-9-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 and each Grand Prix 25-20-16-13-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1, and that any rider on the entry list can score or fail to finish, including riders currently injured or replaced. A shortened race can pay half points; the page is redone after every race.
Ties on points are decided by countback on Grand Prix finishes (most wins, then most second places, and so on; Sprint results don't count). This page never guesses a countback: a result that depends on one is labelled.
Constructors score their best-placed rider in each race; teams score both of their riders.
Basis: official MotoGP results, each checked against a second, independent source before it is published.
Every round has a Saturday Sprint and a Sunday Grand Prix. The Grand Prix pays 25-20-16-13-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 to the top 15 finishers and the Sprint pays 12-9-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 to the top nine, so a rider can score up to 37 points a weekend.
The rider (or manufacturer, or team) becomes champion by winning every remaining Sprint and Grand Prix, whatever anyone else does. Two riders can both be in control at once: only one of them can actually win out.
The title is still possible, but even winning every remaining race wouldn't be enough on its own: at least one rival could still finish ahead by finishing second every time. That rival needs to drop points somewhere.
A manufacturer scores the points of its best-placed rider in each race. A team scores the points of both of its riders. Wildcard entries don't count toward the teams' championship.
The title goes to countback on Grand Prix results: most wins, then most second places, and so on. Sprint results don't count. This page never guesses a countback: any result that would depend on one is labelled as such.
The 2026 Australian Grand Prix at Phillip Island was cancelled because of severe weather. Saturday's Sprint had already been run, so its points stand and the Grand Prix paid none.
