2022 MotoGP World Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Francesco Bagnaia was the 2022 MotoGP World Riders' Champion.
Fabio Quartararo, the defending World Riders' Champion, finished second.
Enea Bastianini finished third in his second season in the MotoGP class.
Marco Bezzecchi (pictured in 2023) became 'Rookie of the Year' in this season.

The 2022 FIM MotoGP World Championship was the premier class of the 74th F.I.M. Road Racing World Championship season. Fabio Quartararo came into the season as the defending World Champion. Ducati secured the constructors' championship, with the factory Ducati Lenovo Team securing the teams' championship and factory rider Francesco Bagnaia achieving the riders' championship. In total, seven different riders and five manufacturers won Grands Prix during the season. As the only manufacturer without a victory, the season saw Honda finish in last place of the manufacturers' standings for the first time in the modern MotoGP era.

Season summary[edit]

The opening round in Qatar was won by Ducati satellite rider Enea Bastianini for Gresini Racing, marking the rider's inaugural premier class victory, and the first for the team since 2006.[1] The return of the Indonesian Grand Prix to the championship in the second round was marked by a wet-weather win for Miguel Oliviera and KTM.[2] The third round of the season in Argentina saw Aleix Espargaró take the checkered flag for Aprilia, his first race win in any world championship class and the first ever for Aprilia in the premier class.[3] At the Grand Prix of the Americas, Bastianini scored his second win of the season to enter the European season of the championship as leader for the riders' title.[4]

Defending champion Fabio Quartararo took his first win of the season at Portugal, to take lead of the riders' standings.[5] In Jerez, Ducati rider Francesco Bagnaia dominated, taking his first win of the season starting from pole and leading all laps, to mark the second grand chelem of his career.[6] With consecutive third place finishes for Aleix Espargaró in Portimão and Jerez adding to their Argentine victory and a podium finish in 2021, Aprilia lost their manufacturer's concessions that aim for underforming manufacturers to gain slight advantages for 2023.[7] Enea Bastianini took his third victory of the season in France after pressuring Ducati works rider Bagnaia into a late race error, while Espargaró and Aprilia took to the third step of the podium for the third race in succession.[8] At Mugello, Bagnaia and factory Ducati took their second victory of the season in front of a home crowd, ahead of championship leader Quartararo in second, and Espargaró taking his fourth consecutive third-place finish.[9] Quartararo took his second victory of the season to extend his championship lead in Catalunya. His primary title rival Espargaró dropped from second position (for potentially his fifth consecutive podium finish) to fifth place on the final lap, after miscounting the laps remaining.[10][11] Quartararo won for the third time in Germany.[12] Bagnaia took his third win in Assen, while title front-runners Quartararo and Espargaró clashed on the fifth lap, resulting in the Frenchman retiring from the race while the Spaniard recovered to finish in fourth place.[13] Quartararo was later handed a long lap penalty for the crash, which was to be served at the next round at Silverstone.[14] Heading into the summer break, Quartararo led the riders' championship, while Ducati led the manufacturers' championship and Aprilia Racing the teams' championship.

Returning in Britain, Bagnaia took his fourth win of the season to lessen the gap to championship frontrunners Quartararo and Espargaró, who struggled to 8th and 9th place finishes respectively.[15] In Austria, Enea Bastianini took his first career pole position, before crashing out on lap 6 due to issues with a bent front wheel rim.[16] Bagnaia led from the first lap to take his third consecutive victory ahead of Quartararo.[17] At the San Marino round, Bagnaia took his fourth straight win to shorten Quartararo's advantage to 30 points with six rounds remaining, and beat Casey Stoner's record for consecutive wins for a Ducati rider.[18] Marc Márquez returned to the championship in Aragón after a three-and-a-half month absence due to surgery, but was involved in a pair of first-lap incidents which saw himself, championship leader Quartararo and fellow Honda rider Takaaki Nakagami retire from the race. The race was won by Bastianini on a last-lap overtake of Bagnaia, to take his fourth victory of the season and end Bagnaia's win streak.[19] With this their tenth victory of the season, Ducati clinched the manufacturers' championship for the third consecutive season with five races remaining.

In Japan, Marc Márquez took pole position in a wet qualifying session, his first pole in 1071 days since the previous Japanese Grand Prix in 2019.[20] In the race, the championship frontrunners struggled, with Francesco Bagnaia crashing out in a final lap attempt to overtake Fabio Quartararo for 8th position, while Aleix Espargaro started the race from the pit lane due to a bike swap after the sighting lap and could only recover to 16th place. Jack Miller took the lead from 7th on the grid on the third lap and led to the finish line ahead of Brad Binder and Jorge Martín.[21] At the Thai round, rookie Marco Bezzecchi took his maiden pole position and thus set a new MotoGP record for unique pole sitters in a season at 10. For the second time in the season, Miguel Oliveira rode his KTM to a race win in the wet. Quartararo struggled to finish in 17th place while Bagnaia achieved a podium finish to cut Quartararo's lead to just 2 points with three rounds remaining.[22] In Australia, Álex Rins crossed the line first in a group of seven riders separated by fewer than 0.9 seconds to take Suzuki's first win of their final season. Quartararo crashed out of the race while Bagnaia finished in third, resulting in Bagnaia taking over the championship lead for the first time in the season.[23] At the Malaysian race, Bagnaia took the win ahead of Bastianini and Quartararo, meaning the title decision would go down to the final round in Valencia.[24] Rins took his second win of the season in Valencia for Suzuki's final race in the MotoGP championship. After a second-lap collision between the two title leaders, Quartararo managed to finish only in 4th place while Bagnaia achieved 9th, sufficient for him to take Ducati's first riders' championship since Casey Stoner in 2007.[25]

  • VR46 Racing Team entered the championship, taking over the grid slots from Esponsorama Racing who left the premier class after 10 seasons.[68][61] The team is using Ducati machinery until at least the end of 2024.[60]
  • Gresini Racing made their return as a fully-independent team with their bikes being supplied by Ducati.[32]
  • Petronas SRT quit the sport after the 2021 season, with the management team forming a new entry for 2022.[63] It was subsequently announced that the team would rebrand as RNF MotoGP Racing starting in 2022.[64] The team continued to use Yamaha bikes for 2022, with options to extend for 2023 and 2024.[69] The team officially entered the class under the name WithU Yamaha RNF MotoGP Team.

Rider changes[edit]

Mid-season changes[edit]

  • Marc Márquez missed the Argentine round after being diagnosed with effects of diplopia sustained in a warm-up crash during the previous Indonesian round.[77] He was also sidelined indefinitely beginning with the Catalan round, after having a fourth surgery on his right humerus.[78][79] He was replaced for all races by Honda test rider Stefan Bradl.[80][81] Márquez returned at the Aragon Grand Prix after missing six rounds.[82]
  • Joan Mir missed the San Marino round after suffering an ankle injury due to a crash in the main race of the previous Austrian round.[83] He was replaced by Kazuki Watanabe.[48] Mir returned during the Aragon Grand Prix, but did not start the race due to the effects of the same ankle injury. He also missed the subsequent Japanese round and was replaced by Takuya Tsuda, who was initially planned to enter the Grand Prix as a wildcard.[49][84] Mir also missed the Thai round and was replaced by the returning Danilo Petrucci.[50]
  • Andrea Dovizioso retired after the San Marino round. He was replaced by Cal Crutchlow for the remaining six rounds of the season.[55]
  • Takaaki Nakagami missed the Thai, Australian, and Malaysian rounds to undergo surgery on his injured finger that he sustained during the Aragon round. He was replaced for all races by Tetsuta Nagashima.[37]

Layout used starting 2022
Comparison between the configuration of the Red Bull Ring used from 2016 to 2021 (top), and the layout used starting 2022 (bottom).
  • Cancelled Grands Prix in 2021 as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, namely the Argentine, Finnish, Japanese, Thailand, Australian, and Malaysian Grands Prix, returned in 2022. Consequently, the Grands Prix held in 2021 that replaced the aforementioned cancelled races, namely the Doha, Styrian, Emilia Romagna, and Algarve Grands Prix, did not return in 2022.[85]
  • The previously mentioned Finnish Grand Prix was planned to return to the calendar after a 39-year absence. The venue hosting the round would have been the new Kymi Ring, instead of the Tampere Circuit used in 1962 and 1963 or the Imatra Circuit which hosted the round until 1982. The Grand Prix was included on both the 2020 and 2021 calendars, but both races were cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the race scheduled for July was cancelled in May due to incomplete homologation works and the risks associated with the geopolitical situation in the region.[101]
  • The Indonesian Grand Prix returned to the calendar after a 24-year absence. The venue hosting the round was the new Mandalika International Street Circuit, instead of the Sentul International Circuit used in 1996 and 1997. The Grand Prix had been included in the 2021 calendar as a Reserve Grand Prix but was ultimately dropped before the end of the season.
  • The Brazilian Grand Prix, which had previously been announced to return in 2022, was not included in the provisional calendar released on 7 October 2021.[102][85]
  • The Austrian Grand Prix used a new layout of the Red Bull Ring, wherein a chicane was added to the previous fast slight-left hander of turn 2.[103] This was done to improve the overall safety of the track by greatly reducing the speed the riders take the turn. The final configuration was chosen among 15 proposals, with the track being 30 meters longer than the previous configurations.[104]
