The 2020 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix (officially known as the Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana) was the fourteenth round of the 2020 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season and the thirteenth round of the 2020 MotoGP World Championship. It was held at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia on 15 November 2020.
The race was won by Franco Morbidelli after a heavily fought over duel against Jack Miller into the final stages of the race. Joan Mir claimed the premier class title after securing seventh place with just 0.026s ahead of Ducati's Andrea Dovizioso and managed to uphold his championship lead and title win by a 29-point lead over Morbidelli with only one race to go. It was Mir's first premier class title in his career and his second championship overall after previously winning the 2017 Moto3 World Championship, which also made him the first Moto3 World Champion to win the premier class title since the introduction of the Moto3 category in 2012. This success also marked the first rider's title for Suzuki since Kenny Roberts Jr. in 2000 and the maiden teams' championship title for the Japanese manufacturer respectively.
Background
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
The opening rounds of the 2020 championship have been heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Valencian Community Grand Prix, scheduled in the original calendar on November 15 as the twentieth and final stage of the season, was postponed by one week for the initial shift of the Grand Prix of the Americas (later cancelled on July 8) to the third Sunday in November (it was scheduled for April 5 as the third race of the championship). After the postponement of the Argentine Grand Prix (initially classified as the fourth Grand Prix of the season on April 19) to November 22, the Valencia stage was moved back by another week (the Argentine race was later cancelled on July 31). Several Grands Prix were cancelled or postponed after the opening round in Qatar was halted, prompting the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme to draft a new calendar. A new calendar based exclusively in Europe was announced on 11 June. The Valencian Community Grand Prix is classified as the fourteenth Grand Prix of the new calendar (the thirteenth for the MotoGP class) on November 15th, as planned in the original one. It is preceded by the introduction of the European Grand Prix, which is also held on the Ricardo Tormo Circuit, after the organizers of the Valencian Community Grand Prix signed a contract with Dorna Sports, owner of the sport's commercial rights, to host a double grand prix in the Valencia circuit. With the inclusion of the Portuguese Grand Prix, which will be held on 22 November at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve as the last race of the season, this also marks that for the first time since 2001 the championship finale will not be held in Valencia.
MotoGP Championship standings before the race
After the victory in the European Grand Prix, Joan Mir confirmed himself at the top of the drivers' classification with 162 points. Fabio Quartararo and Álex Rins are 37 points behind the leader, with the Frenchman second due to the victories won this season (3 vs 1) compared to the Spaniard, who nevertheless gained three positions in the overall standings. Maverick Viñales and Franco Morbidelli are fourth and fifth, with 121 and 117 points respectively.
In the constructors' standings, Suzuki climbs to the top of the standings with 181 points, overtaking Ducati (now at 181 points). Yamaha is third with 163 points, just 4 points ahead of KTM. Honda is fifth at 130 points, while Aprilia closes the standings at 36 points.
In the team championship standings, Team Suzuki Ecstar is confirmed first at 287, increasing its lead by 82 points over Petronas Yamaha SRT. Ducati Team and KTM Factory Racing are third and fourth with 194 and 182 points respectively, with Monster Energy Yamaha fifth at 159 points.
