Concessions: how can MotoGP™ manufacturers change rank? Here’s a rundown of what could change – and what can’t – at the next checkpoint in summer 2024 The new MotoGP™ concessions system came into effect ahead of the Valencia Test at the end of 2023, and we’ve already seen it in action. Right now the ranks are Ducati in Rank A, KTM and Aprilia in Rank C, and Yamaha and Honda in Rank D. That’s based on the first checkpoint at the end of 2023, which took into account that whole season. The next time the percentage of points will be calculated to decide each factory’s rank is in summer break this year. That checkpoint will take into account post-summer 2023 (starting from the British GP) until pre-summer 2024 (up to and including the German GP). And remember, Constructors’ points are only scored by the top-finishing bike from each factory. So what would each manufacturer need to achieve to move up, or how would they move down? We’ve done the maths! Yamaha & Honda Currently enjoying the most benefits of the new system as we start racing in 2024, both Yamaha and Honda are in Rank D. To move up to Rank C in summer, Yamaha would need 171 points and Honda 175. That’s an average of 18 points each scored per GP weekend, aka fourth place in each GP race and Tissot Sprint. Both manufacturers can only move up to a maximum of Rank C at that next checkpoint. KTM & Aprilia KTM need only 65 points to maintain their current Rank C, which is an average of 7 points per GP, or a ninth-place finish in each Grand Prix race and Sprint. To move up to Rank B, meanwhile, the Austrian factory would need 265 points. That’s an average haul of 27 points per race weekend, or second place in each GP race and Sprint. Aprilia are also currently Rank C. To keep that, they need to score 80 points by the next checkpoint in summer break. That’s an average of 8 points per weekend, or P8 finishes in each GP race and Sprint. To move up to rank B would require a haul of 284 points before summer, averaging 29 points per Grand Prix. In other words, a second-place finish in each GP race and Sprint. It’s extremely unlikely Aprilia or KTM would move down to Rank D. Ducati Ducati are in a strong position in Rank A, as the second half of last season will be taken into account at the summer 2024 checkpoint, alongside the first half of this year. As we prepare for the lights to go out on a record-breaking 2024, that means they would need to score less than 28 points per weekend to lose their place in Rank A. To maintain it, the current pacesetters need to score 277 points before summer break.

Martin remains the king of the Sprints in Qatar The 'Martinator' is back after winning the opening Sprint of the season under the floodlights from Binder and Espargaro Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Ducati) took the first Tissot Sprint win of the season, also bagging the first 12 points of the season at the Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Qatar. The Spaniard adds to his Sprint success with an unstoppable performance, beating Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) by half a second at the line. Aprilia Racing’s Aleix Espargaro had great late-race pace, stealing a podium from reigning World Champion Francesco Bagnaia in a nail-biting opening Sprint. Martin got the holeshot into turn one, placing the Ducati ahead of the fast-starting Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) who shot from the second row to second place. As the race progressed the front two began to try and create a gap, with Binder taking his first look to try and take the lead on lap two. Binder thought better of this move, remaining in second position. With just an 11-lap race it was fast and furious with Francesco Bagnaia overtaking fellow Ducati Lenovo Team rider, Enea Bastianini. The Beast battled back, briefly overtaking Bagnaia but ran wide and handed the #1 the position in a fierce battle between teammates. Martin set the fastest lap of the race earlier on, trying to escape the clutches of the South African. However, the gap began to close with the front six riders bunching together as the race progressed. Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team’s Fabio Di Giannantonio had an early end to his race after a decent start, the Italian crashing on lap two. The front group continued to battle which allowed Marc Marquez (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) to catch the lead group. The #93 qualified in sixth position and was straight on the pace for the start of the Sprint. Marquez found his way through Bastianini and Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing) with just five laps remaining. Marc Marquez could sense a Sprint podium, putting pressure on Bagnaia in third position. However, Marquez made a mistake, running wide and allowing Espargaro to catch and pass the eight-time World Champion. Meanwhile, Alex Marquez (Gresini Racing MotoGP™) was having his own battle further down the field with rookie star Pedro Acosta (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3). On the final two laps, all eyes were on the front group and Aleix Espargaro who closed the gap to Bagnaia and tried to find a way through. It was a stunning battle and after one failed attempt, Espargaro battled back, passing to take the podium place at the final corner with one lap remaining. Bagnaia held onto fourth place at the chequered flag, finishing ahead of Marc Marquez who was full of smiles after his first Sprint with Gresini Racing MotoGP™, rounding out the top five. Behind was Bastianini who ended the opening Sprint of the year in sixth. Alex Marquez managed to get the better of Acosta at the line, beating the rookie to seventh position. Maverick Vinales (Aprilia Racing) came across the line to score the final point of the day after coming home to finish in ninth position.

"I believe in the project, but I have to look at things in the short term." Fabio Quartararo just said it to Izaskun Ruiz, but it sounded to me like what Marc Márquez said a year ago.

I'm just happy live tv coverage is available again here in the States. How 'bout in Canada? I subscribe to the Dorna feed for both MotoGP and WSBK. It's what you read on this thread. Each is about $150 per year so I hope you enjoy what I share. I prefer streaming to TV. My sweetheart watches the TV in the living room and I watch the races at bizaar hours on my computer. Last night the stream ran from 2am to 9am, which is normal. I started doing this after we lost Speed TV and there was a sense of the refugee when Dzu started Tifosiland Lounge. Rich and I have kept that going by the way. Tifosiland dissolved into negative and racist posts and Dzu started this forum, continued today by Pistola and others. Some of us go back quite a long way around here. I do appreciate the time and effort you put in. I'm an old member myself. I was one of your moderators at SpeedTV. Not many know that.

Mat Oxley Question to MM: what’s it like fighting on the Ducati? “Easier.” He had tyre temperature issues in the group. His late-race comeback was because he’d been alone for a bit, so tyres had cooled and worked well again.
From a Deckchair on the Iceberg "Tantalus was made to stand in a pool of water beneath a fruit tree with low branches, with the fruit ever eluding his grasp, and the water always receding before he could take a drink".
Marc WILL learn:
Can't gangster aero bikes. More you exceed, the more they recede

SofaRacer “He’s got some fucking balls” - Cal Crutchlow “He can Win in his Rookie year” - Marc Márquez “He knows where he’s heading” - Dani Pedrosa “I get a stiffy just thinking about it” - SofaRacer And here’s the Lad himself, not exactly looking overwhelmed. Neil Morrison Acosta asked about the physicality of a MotoGP Sprint race. "You don't have to think about anything - just put the balls on and go."

Alonso amazes in a last lap thriller ahead of Holgado The Columbian won their fifth Grand Prix in Qatar ahead of Holgado and Furusato in an instant classic David Alonso (CFMOTO Aspar Team) wins the opening race of the season at the Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Qatar after a thrilling move on the entry to the last corner. Alonso won by just 0.041 from Daniel Holgado (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3) who was strong throughout the whole race. Joining them on the podium was Taiyo Furusato (Honda Team Asia), after battling his way through the field to a remarkable podium finish. There was drama before the race started with David Muñoz stalling the BOE Motorsports’ bike on the grid, forcing the Spaniard to start from the pitlane. However, once the lights went out it was pole sitter Daniel Holgado who led into turn one, ahead of Ivan Ortola (MT Helmets – MSI) in a tight Moto3™ field. It was just a 16-lap race with passes getting made at every corner, in a thrilling start to the Moto3™ season. Adrian Fernandez (Leopard Racing) was the rider on the move early on, making his way briefly into second and as the top Honda. However, Jose Antonio Rueda (Red Bull KTM Ajo) battled back, before the #99 passed Holgado to take the race lead. On lap three of the race Rueda lost the rear, collecting Ortola at turn one. This incident promoted David Alonso to second place, ahead of Fernandez. The lead group was 11 riders long with all manufacturers in the mix, in a nail-biting opening Grand Prix of the season. Positions within the group were constantly changing, with Collin Veijer (Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP) being the next rider to battle up the order from 10th to fourth position. Filippo Farioli (SIC58 Squadra Corse) and Matteo Bertelle (Rivacold Snipers Team) were the next riders to go down, after a highside from Farioli on lap six of the race. Another rider who was beginning to make moves was Japanese rider Taiyo Furusato who battled to fifth after starting from 18th position. Furusato quickly made his way into the podium positions before making a stunning move to take the lead in the Qatar Grand Prix. Holgado and Furusato had an incredible battle, with the Japanese rider making a mistake, dropping down to fourth position. This allowed the #80 Alonso to begin his attack for the lead with a handful of laps remaining. Alonso briefly took the race lead into turn one before Holgado reclaimed his throne. Ryusei Yamanaka (MT Helmets – MSI) had a big crash after running off the edge of the curb, bringing a premature end to his race. As the sun began to set in Doha it all went down to the final lap of the race with Holgado leading in front of Riccardo Rossi (CIP Green Power). However, it did not stay like that for long with it being an all-out duel between Furusato and Holgado. There was also drama behind the leading riders with Adrian Fernandez losing the rear, leaving Vincente Perez (Red Bull KTM Ajo) with nowhere to go. Alonso made the move for the win at the final corner, leading across the line with nothing separating the front group. Riccardo Rossi came across the line to take fourth position, just 0.186 separating the top four. Dutchman Veijer came across the line in fifth position, in a solid race for the Husqvarna rider. Stefano Nepa (LEVELUP – MTA) finished in sixth place, a further 0.078 behind Veijer in a thrilling opening race of the season. Tatsuki Suzuki came across the line in seventh in his debut race with the Liqui Moly Husqvarna Intact GP. Australian Joel Kelso (BOE Motorsports) finished in eighth and ahead of Ortola who made an incredible recovery ride. Jacob Roulstone (Red Bull GASGAS Tech3) ends his first Moto3™ race to round out the top 10. Joel Esteban (CFMOTO Aspar Team) ended the race in 11th, ahead of rookie Angel Piqueras (Leopard Racing) and MLav Racing’s Scott Ogden. Nicola Carraro (LEVELUP – MTA) and Luca Lunetta (SIC58 Squadra Corse) took the final point-scoring positions.

Lopez resists Baltus in the battle under the floodlights The Spaniard took his first win since 2022 after a thrilling battle with Baltus and Garcia in Qatar Alonso Lopez (Sync SpeedUp) wins the Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Qatar in a new era for Moto2™ as the Championship completes its first race with Pirelli tyres. Lopez defended from Barry Baltus (RW-Idrofoglia Racing GP), who finished just 0.055 behind after an epic battle. Sergio Garcia took his Triumph-powered MT Helmets – MSI machine to join them on his first-ever Moto2™ podium. The lights went out and polesitter Aron Canet (Fantic Racing) had a bad start, allowing Alonso Lopez (Sync SpeedUp) to lead on the entry to turn one. Lopez led from both QJMOTOR Gresini Moto2™ riders of Manuel Gonzalez and Albert Arenas. Fermin Aldeguer (Sync SpeedUp) also struggled in the opening stage of the race, dropping down to 13th position. Tony Arbolino (Elf Marc VDS Racing Team) was the rider on the move in the opening stage of the race, battling with Barry Baltus and Zonta van der Goorbergh (RW-Idrofoglia Racing GP), for fifth place. Aron Canet fought back after dropping down to eighth place to lead the field on lap three of the race. Canet set the fastest lap in the process, trying to stretch the field in an attempt to win his first Moto2™ Grand Prix. Lopez and Gonzalez eventually caught and passed the #44 machine, allowing the lead group to grow to three riders once again. Further down the order, Aldeguer was having a battle with Sergio Garcia (MT Helmets – MSI) who was making his way through the field in ninth position. Ayumu Sasaki (Yamaha VR46 Master Camp Team) was the first faller of the race, crashing out of their debut Moto2™ race at turn one. The race continued to rage on, with Barry Baltus managing to catch the back of Canet, putting the #7 machine in podium contention. Baltus made the move at the end of lap eight and began to pull away from the pole sitter. The Belgian then battled into second position in a fierce move on Gonzalez to set his sights on the lead. Arbolino dropped down the order as the race continued with the Italian dropping down to 13th position after some contact with Joe Roberts (OnlyFans American Racing Team). The Marc VDS rider then continued to drop down the order, outside the point-scoring positions. All the moves at the front of the field, allowed Garcia and Ai Ogura (MT Helmets – MSI) to join the brilliant battle, with the Japanese rider making a heroic move on Gonzalez for fourth place. Izan Guevara (CFMOTO Aspar Team) was forced to retire on lap 13, pulling the #28 machine into the pits. Meanwhile, Joe Roberts and his teammate Marcos Ramirez (OnlyFans American Racing Team) began their battle in sixth and seventh, in a great race for the Triumph-powered American Racing Team. It was an unbelievable end to the race, with three bikes battling for the lead with only three laps remaining. Baltus looked to make a move on Lopez but could not find a way through due to the Spaniard’s incredible defending, which allowed the SpeedUp rider to win. While it was delight for Lopez, his teammate and title favourite Aldeguer was outside of the points, finishing in 16th position. Ai Ogura came home to finish in fourth position, in a great first race with the MT Helmets – MSI Team. Manuel Gonzalez rounded out the top five in a solid result for the Spaniard. He was ahead of both OnlyFans American Racing machines, with Ramirez ending the race ahead of his teammate Roberts. The second QJMOTOR Gresini Moto2™ of Albert Arenas rounded out the top eight after a thrilling opening Grand Prix. Celestino Vietti (Red Bull KTM Ajo) finished in ninth, ending the race ahead of pole sitter Canet who was 10th. Somkiat Chantra (IDEMITSU Honda Team Asia) came across the line to finish in 11th, ahead of Yamaha VR46 Master Camp Team’s Jeremy Alcoba. Zonta van der Goorbergh, Bo Bendsneyder (Pertamina Mandalika GAS UP Team), and Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Ajo) rounded out the point-scoring places.
