The VR46 team unveils a special livery that will be used by Marco Bezzecchi and Celestino Vietti in the Moto2 class, as well as Luca Marini in the MotoGP premier class. Sky Racing Team VR46, which usually wears black and blue livery, has now completely changed to yellow with Grazie Vale writing on the side of the bike. This was done as a form of respect for Valentino Rossi who decided to retire at the end of the 2021 season.[1]

In the MotoGP class, Fabio Quartararo became the first French rider to win the MotoGP World Championship after main rival Francesco Bagnaia crashed out of the lead with five laps to go therefore clinching the championship with two grand prix remaining in the season.

In the Moto3 class, Red Bull KTM Ajo won their first Teams' Championship and third across all classes. It is their second championship for 2021 after having won the Moto2 Teams' Championship during the Aragon race.
