This will be the 15th successive year that Valencia has hosted the final race of the season, making it the circuit that has been the venue for the final event of the year on most occasions. The Valencia circuit is named after Spanish racer Ricardo Tormo, who won the 50cc world title riding for Bultaco in 1978 and 1981. In addition to his 15 Grand Prix victories in the 50cc class he also had 4 wins in the 125cc class. His career ended in 1984 due to leg injuries suffered in a crash whilst test riding. Tormo sadly died from leukaemia in 1998. Dani Pedrosa is the most successful rider at the Valencia circuit with six wins; three in MotoGP, two in 250cc, and one in the 125cc class. Pedrosa has won twice as many GP races at the Valencia circuit than the next most successful riders who are: Casey Stoner (1 x 125cc, 2 x MotoGP) and Jorge Lorenzo (3 x MotoGP). The premier-class race at Valencia has been won eight times by Spanish riders; Sete Gibernau won the 500cc race on a in 2001; Dani Pedrosa won the MotoGP race in 2007, 2009 and 2012; Jorge Lorenzo won in 2010, 2013 and 2015; Marc Marquez won two years ago. Since the introduction of the four-stroke MotoGP formula in 2002, Honda has been the most successful manufacturer with eight victories at the Valencia circuit. Yamaha has had four wins and Ducati two. Andrea Dovizioso’s fourth place finish in 2014 is the best result for a Ducati rider at Valencia in the last five years. Suzuki’s only podium at Valencia in the MotoGP era is third with John Hopkins in 2007. The MotoGP race at Valencia has only once been won by a rider who has not qualified on the front row - Marc Marquez won the race in 2014 from fifth place on the grid. Valentino Rossi is the only rider to have competed at all seventeen previous grand prix events that have taken place at the Ricardo Tormo circuit. The last non-Spanish rider to win the MotoGP race in Valencia was Casey Stoner in 2011. At least one of the three classes at the Valencia grand prix has been won by a Spanish rider for the last seven years. The last time that the grand prix series arrived at the final race of the year in Valencia with all three titles already decided was in 2012.

130 - Between his first MotoGP victory at Donington in 2009 and his win in Malaysia Dovizioso started 130 MotoGP races without a victory. The previous record highest number of races between premier-class grand prix wins was held by Alex Barros who took part in 94 500cc GP races between his first win at Jarama in 1993 and his second win at the Dutch TT in 2000.

34 - Andrea Dovizioso’s win in Malaysia was the 34th time he has stood on the podium in the premier-class of grand prix racing, the same number of premier-class podium finishes achieved by twice 500cc World Champion Phil Read during his grand prix career.

25 - Andrea Dovizioso is the 25th different winner this year across the three classes of grand prix racing, which is a new record for most different winners in a single season in the history of grand prix racing. Previously recorded was 24 different winners in 1974 when the grand prix series also included the 350cc and 50cc classes.

21 - Honda arrive at the final race of the year with a 21 point advantage in the MotoGP Constructors Championship which means if any Honda rider finishes 12th or better then Honda will win the premier-class Constructors title for the 22nd time.

10 - Andrea Dovizioso is just the tenth rider of the MotoGP era (starting in 2002) to win a MotoGP race from pole position and also setting the fastest lap of the race. Other riders to have achieved this are: Valentino Rossi, Marc Marquez, Casey Stoner, Jorge Lorenzo, Dani Pedrosa, Loris Capirossi, Makoto Tamada, Andrea Iannone and Alex Barros.

10 - The last Yamaha rider to win a MotoGP race was Valentino Rossi at the Grand Prix of Catalunya; a run of nine races without a Yamaha win.

9 - At the Malaysian Grand Prix Andrea Dovizioso became the ninth different winner in the MotoGP class in 2016 (Lorenzo, Marquez, Rossi, Miller, Iannone, Crutchlow, Viñales, Pedrosa, Dovizioso) a new record for most different winners in a single season in the premier-class of grand prix racing. The previous record was eight different winners in a season in 2000: Kenny Roberts Jnr, Garry McCoy, Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi, Alex Barros, Alex Criville, Loris Capirossi and Norick Abe.

8 - At Sepang Andrea Dovizioso became the eighth different Italian rider to stand on the top step of the podium in 2016 across the three GP classes (Valentino Rossi, Andrea Dovizioso, Andrea Iannone, Lorenzo Baldassarri, Francesco Bagnaia, Romano Fenati, Nicolo Antonelli, Enea Bastianini). This is the greatest number of different Italian GP winners in a season since 1992 when there were also eight different Italian winners (Luca Cadalora, Ezio Gianola, Pier Francesco Chili, Loris Reggiani, Alessandro Gramigni, Max Biaggi, Fausto Gresini and Bruno Casanova).

7 years 96 days - The time between Andrea Dovizioso’s two MotoGP victories. Only once has a rider had greater time gap between premier-class wins - Phil Read who won his first 500cc GP at the Ulster Grand Prix in 1964 riding a Norton and his second 500cc win was at the 1973 West German GP in 1973 riding a MV Agusta. However between these two wins Read only took part in four GP races in the 500cc class as he concentrated on racing in the smaller capacity classes.

3 - Andrea Dovizioso is the third Italian rider to win in the MotoGP class this year. The last time when three different Italian riders had MotoGP wins in the same season was 2006 when Valentino Rossi, Loris Capirossi and Marco Melandri all had wins.

2 - With his win in Malaysia on a Ducati adding to his victory at Donington riding a Honda, Andrea Dovizioso becomes just the fourth rider to win in the MotoGP class riding machines from two different manufacturers, joining: Valentino Rossi, Casey Stoner and Max Biaggi.

2 - In Malaysia Dovizioso became the second rider to win on Ducati this year. The last time that Ducati had two different winners in the same season was 2007 with Casey Stoner and Loris Capirossi.
