    Entries

    [edit]

    In MotoGP and Moto2 classes the riders and teams were the same as the season entry list with no additional stand-in riders for the race. In the premier class five drivers made their debuts in MotoGP: Remy Gardner and Raúl Fernández, respectively 2021 Moto2 World Champion and runner-up, Fabio di Giannantonio, Marco Bezzecchi and Darryn Binder, who moves from Moto3 to MotoGP as Jack Miller did in 2015. In the intermediate class, the new entries are the 2021 Moto3 World Champion Pedro Acosta, Jeremy Alcoba, Gabriel Rodrigo, Niccolò Antonelli, Filip Salač (from Moto 3), Manuel González, Alessandro Zaccone, Keminth Kubo, Zonta van den Goorbergh and Sean Dylan Kelly.

    In Moto3, Taiyo Furusato missed the round after having surgery due to a right ankle injury; he was not replaced. Gerard Riu replaced David Muñoz due to the fact that the latter was under the minimum age. There are eight new entries in the category: Diogo Moreira, Iván Ortolá, Joel Kelso, Daniel Holgado, Matteo Bertelle, Mario Aji, Joshua Whatley and Scott Ogden.

    As for the teams, in MotoGP class Aprilia enter the series with their own full factory team effort for the first time since 2004. Gresini Racing, had previously sponsored and supplied bikes with factory support by Aprilia, return as a fully-independent team with their bikes being supplied by Ducati. There are two teams debuting: VR46 Racing Team taking over the grid slots from Esponsorama Racing (who leaves the premier class after 10 seasons) and uses Ducati machinery; RNF MotoGP Racing replaces Sepang Racing Team, which abandoned racing after the decision of main sponsor Petronas to remove support. The team was formed by the management of the Sepang Racing Team and continue to use Yamaha bikes. In Moto2 class, Petronas SRT withdrew from the category, while RW Racing GP return to the series-dominant Kalex chassis, after four seasons operating the factory programme for Japanese chassis builder NTS. In Moto3 class, the vacancy left by Petronas SRT is occupied by the new VisionTrack Racing Team, which uses Honda bikes. Gresini Racing (present since the first year of Moto3) also leaves the light class to focus on MotoGP and Moto2. In its place another Italian team, Team MTA, already present in the Moto3 class as Team Italia from 2014 to 2016, and rides with KTM bikes. Prüstel GP switches from the current KTM motorcycles to CFMoto-rebranded KTM bikes.
