10 races left (5 sprints, 5 Grand Prix races): up to 185 points for one rider
What the next race can do (written from the numbers)
- The title cannot be settled at the Australian GP (4 rounds and up to 148 points remain after it).
- Weekend total: if Marc Marquez scores at least 2 points more than Jorge Martin, Marc Marquez takes the lead; level on points, Marc Marquez is ahead on race wins (now 6 to 1).
- If Marc Marquez wins both the sprint and the race, Marc Marquez takes the lead whatever Jorge Martin's results.
- At the Australian GP, whatever Marco Bezzecchi does, Jorge Martin stays in the lead (Marco Bezzecchi can close at most 37 points).
- Sprint: if Marc Marquez finishes ahead of Jorge Martin and in the top 2, Marc Marquez takes the lead.
- Race (if the sprint leaves the gap unchanged): if Marc Marquez finishes ahead of Jorge Martin and in the top 4, Marc Marquez takes the lead.
Race conditions are rewritten automatically once the sprint result is in

Method: the remaining races were run 10,000 times. In each race we first draw a multiple crash (how often 2 or more riders retired on the same lap in past races, and how many; riders running close together are caught), then each rider's own crash (race and sprint separately, last 3 seasons, multiple crashes taken out), technical failure (per manufacturer this season) and other zero-point outcomes (this season, e.g. retirements with no reason in the official record). Riders still running draw a finishing position from their own results this season. Recent races get no extra weight. Injuries, bike changes and team tactics are not modelled.
An estimate calculated from past data. It does not predict race results with certainty. About our predictions
By pace (written from the numbers)
- If Marc Marquez averages 3.5 in the remaining races (when finishing) and Jorge Martin averages worse than 3.5, Marc Marquez overtakes Jorge Martin for the title.
- Even if Marc Marquez wins every remaining race, Jorge Martin keeps the title by averaging 1 or better.
- If Marco Bezzecchi averages 2 in the remaining races (when finishing) and Jorge Martin averages worse than 3.5, Marco Bezzecchi overtakes Jorge Martin for the title.
- Even if Marco Bezzecchi wins every remaining race, Jorge Martin keeps the title by averaging 2 or better.
- Averaging 4, Ai Ogura cannot reach the title whatever Jorge Martin does.
- Even if Ai Ogura wins every remaining race, Jorge Martin keeps the title by averaging 4 or better.
