Valencian MotoGP 2022 - Full race weekend schedule
After yet another victory last time out in Sepang, his seventh of the season which is three more than Enea Bastianini in second, the Ducati rider would need to finish lower than 14th and Quartararo win in order for him not to secure the title.
While it would take a wild series of events for Bagnaia to leave Valencia without the world title, the same can’t be said for Aleix Espargaro in his battle to secure a top three spot in the championship.
Seemingly uncatchable for that position with a few rounds to go, the Aprilia rider is now just one point ahead of Bastianini after the Gresini rider took his third podium from the last six races in Malaysia.
Although not locked in, Jack Miller has a similar points advantage to that of his team-mate Bagnaia over sixth placed Brad Binder, so a top five championship finish appears likely for the Australian before joining Binder for the post-race test at KTM.
