YOGYAKARTA The International Motorcycle Racing Federation (FIM) in mid-2022 issued a MotoGP rider age rule for the 2023 season and beyond. FIM and Dorna Sport as MotoGP promoters raised the minimum age limit for young riders fighting on grids.

This rule was made to protect young riders, given that many young riders were less mature when competing in junior classes.

For your information, in the 2021 racing season, three riders died on the race track. One of them is Jason Dupasquier (19 years old), who died on May 30, 2021 after a crash in Q1 Moto3.

Six months later, Maverick Vinales' cousin, Dean Berta Vinales (15) died in the World Supersports 300 Championship.

To prevent the same case, the solution taken by FIM and Dorna is to increase the age limit and reduce the size of the grid.

So, what are the age limits for MotoGP riders for the 2023 racing season? Check out the full information below.

In the 2022 racing season, the age limit rules for riders competing in the Talent Cup event under Dorna Sports, including European, British, Northern and Asia Talent Cup, must be at least 13 years old. For the 2023 racing season and beyond, the racer who competed in the event had to be 14 years old.

In the FIM CEV Moto3 championship, the minimum age was increased to 15 years for the 2023 racing year and beyond. Previously, the minimum age limit for riders in the event was 14 years.

For the 2023 MotoGP world championship, the minimum age limit for participants is 18 years. This rule applies to all classes, including the Moto2 and Moto3 categories, which in the previous racing season were at least 16 years.

However, there are privileges for racers who win the Moto3 CEV junior event. They were allowed to debut in the Moto3 duia championship at the age of 17.

Even so with riders under 18 years old who are currently in Moto3 or who will rise to Moto3. They don't have to worry about canceling the race because of the latest MotoGP rider age limit.
