[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.

[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.

[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.

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.

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.

[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.

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.

Francesco Bagnaia was the 2022 MotoGP World Riders' Champion.
