Alvaro Bautista, the reigning WSBK champion from 2023, crashed more times than anybody except Sam Lowes. They both hit the deck 17 times.
This year's champion Toprak Razgatlioglu crashed the least, only twice. It is the second year in a row he has appeared bottom of this list.
There were 652 crashes across four classes in 2024. This is an increase on 2023, but that's largely due to the addition of the FIM Women's Circuit Racing World Championship.
In WSBK, the 171 crashes means an average of 14 per round.
In WorldSSP, the 258 crashes were an average of 22 per round. It was an increase of 38 compared to last year.
In WorldSSP300, the crashes increased from 131 last year to 161 this year.
In WorldWCR, there were 62 crashes in the six rounds.

Magny-Cours had the second-most amount of crashes, with 71.
Jerez was third with 70.
Phillip Island had the fewest, with just 30 crashes in all classes across the round.
The only two specific corners to record more than 20 crashes this season were Turn 6 at Jerez, and Turn 13 at Magny-Cours.
