Motorcycle racing world championship for the first time was held by the Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), in 1949. At that time it has traditionally been on hold several races at each event for different classes of motors, based on engine capacity, and classes for sidecars (motorcycles bersespan). The classes that exist when it is 50cc, 125cc, 250cc, 350cc, and 500cc motors for single seater, as well as 350cc and 500cc sidecars for motorcycles. Entering the 1950's and throughout the 1960s, 4-stroke engine motorcycles dominate the entire class. In the late 1960s, the motorcycle-engined 2 not begin to master the small classes. In the 1970's 2-stroke motorcycle engine really get rid of 4 stroke engines. In 1979, Honda tried to restore the 4 stroke engines in the top class by lowering the motor NR500, but this project failed, and in 1983, even Honda was winning with his 2-stroke 500cc motor. In 1983, finally abolished 350cc class. 50cc class was replaced by a 80cc class in 1984, but the classes are often dominated by riders from Spain and Italy was finally abolished in 1990. Class sidecars are also excluded from the world championships in the 1990's, leaving the 125cc, 250cc, and 500cc classes.

GP 500, the premier class of Grand Prix motor racing, has changed dramatically in 2002. From the mid-1970s until 2001 the top class of GP racing and is limited 4 cylinder 500cc engine capacity, both types of engines 4 stroke or 2 stroke. As a result, are able to survive the 2-stroke engines, which incidentally produces power and greater acceleration. In 2002, for the first time, manufacturers were allowed to increase the total capacity of a special machine to machine to a maximum of 4 stroke 990cc, and gives you the freedom to choose the number of cylinders that are used between three to six with a certain weight limit. With the 4 stroke 990cc motor bolehkannya, the GP 500 class renamed to MotoGP. After 2003 no more 2-stroke engine that fell in the MotoGP class. For 125cc and 250cc classes in particular still use 2-stroke engine.

Race for the MotoGP class is currently held as many as 17 series in 15 different countries (Spain held a 3 race series). Usual in the title race every weekend with several stages. Friday in free practice and his first official workout, then on Saturday held the second official practice and QTT, where riders try to make the record the best time to determine their starting position. Own race was held on Sunday, although there was a series that was held Saturday in the Netherlands and Qatar. Grid (row starting position) consists of 3 riders per line and usually every racing series, followed by about 20 racers. Racing held for about 45 minutes and the driver raced along the specified number of rounds, without entering the pits to change tires or refuel.
Recent regulatory changes

In 2005, a new rule for MotoGP was introduced the flag-to-flag. Previously, if a race starts with a start in the dry circuit conditions and the rain falls, the leading rider can lift a hand to stop the race, so also with the offisial waving a red flag to stop the race, then race at the start again with wet tires. Now if it rains during the race no longer a red flag, riders went straight to the pits to change tires at the discretion of the team.
