The 2017 MotoGP season officially ended after Marquez won the annual championship, and MotoGP also released a tentative list of the 2018 season drivers and schedule.
Before we care about which drivers will fight on the track next year, let’s review the key records of the 2017 season together!
Marquez started high and rose this year, won the US for five consecutive years, and won the German for eight consecutive years. The fierce showdown with Dovizioso in the middle and late stages of the season was even more exciting. Finally, he defeated his competitors with 298 points in his personal points and won the fourth annual championship at the GP level (all levels are counted as the 6th championship).

Dovizioso has performed well since the start of the season, and has won 6 sub-station championships tied with Marquez throughout the season. Just when car fans were looking forward to him being able to win the first annual championship in his career, it was a pity that he lost in the peak final battle with Marquez and finally ranked second in the year with only 261 points.

This year, Vinales, who just transferred to MOVISTAR YAMAHA MotoGP, has won two consecutive victories in the Carda and Argentina since the beginning of the season, and then won the French station. Unfortunately, due to the vehicle adjustment in the middle and late stages, the branch station had its best results and stopped at second place, and finally won the third place this year with 230 points.

Although Pedrosa, who has never been cared for by the camera, he also won the final victory of the Spanish Jerez Station and Valencia Station. Among them, the 3000th MotoGP event worth commemorating, and at the end of the season, he won the annual team of this year with his personal points of 210 points.

, and MotoGP veteran Rossi only won in the Netherlands. In addition to encountering vehicle adjustment problems like his teammate Vinales, he was injured in front of the San Marino station, shattering his attempt to pursue the 10th championship, and could only become the fifth place of the year this season with 208 points.

As a freshman at the GP level, Zarco of MONSTER YAMAHA TECH 3 has greatly deepened the impression in the hearts of car fans with his strong offensive tactics and fearless riding style. It is also quite interesting to ride the 2016 version of YZR-M1 to fight with the factory team drivers, which is quite interesting to Zarco's next moves; although Zarco did not win the championship this year, he still ranked 6th in the year with his personal points of 174 points.

For Lorenzo, who transferred to Ducati Team, this year's performance is getting better and better. He ranked third on the podium at the Jerez station in Spain and second on the Sepang station in Malaysia . What is more interesting is that the mysterious team command "MAPPING 8" appeared on the vehicle dashboard many times at the end of the season... Lorenzo finally ranked 7th in the year with his personal points of 137 points.

In addition to the fierce competition among familiar drivers this year, many drivers of the satellite team also exuded a strong light. Folger of the MONSTER YAMAHA TECH 3 team and Petrucci of the Octo Pramac Racing team also led the way and fought for the championship in the sub-station. Although it was a pity that the best results were ranked second in the sub-station, I believe that after this year's event experience and experience accumulation, the performance of the 2018 season will be even better!



RED BULL KTM FACTORY participated in the full season for the first time The progress of RACING team is obvious to all. From being able to finish the race at the bottom to being able to get points and advancing to the top 10 of the sub-stations, I believe there will be more amazing performances next year without any change in drivers.

Next year's GP level will include four drivers, including Zhongshang Guijing, Xavier Simeon, Thomas Luthi, Franco Morbidelli, etc., who came to challenge the top motorcycle races by Moto 2, and there will be a few changes in the original GP level drivers. In terms of the schedule of
, the 2018 season added the Buriram Station in Thailand, which is definitely good news for Taiwanese car fans, because in addition to Japan, Malaysia and Australia, there is another option that is convenient to go and can easily experience the shocking MotoGP event.
