Mick Doohan (pictured at Jerez) became the 1996 500cc world champion

Season summary

Honda's Mick Doohan continued his domination of the 500 class with 8 victories.[1] His Repsol Honda teammate, Àlex Crivillé beat him to the line twice in Austria and the Czech Republic.[1] Luca Cadalora, now with the Kanemoto Honda team took two wins for the fourth consecutive year.[1] Suzuki's hopes were dashed when Daryl Beattie suffered head injuries in a pre-season crash.[1] He returned only to crash in Spain then two races later in France which effectively ended his career.[1] Loris Capirossi won his first 500 Grand Prix when Crivillé collided with his teammate, Doohan on the last lap of the Australian round.[1] A new European team made its debut with the Elf team using a Swissauto V4 sidecar engine in an ROC chassis.[1] It proved to be fast but unreliable. Honda introduced the NSR500V, a V twin as a cost-effective alternative for privateer teams.[1]

Max Biaggi claimed his third consecutive 250 championship for Aprilia.[1] Haruchika Aoki repeated as the 125 champion for Honda.[1] Newcomers winning their first Grands Prix were Norifumi Abe in the 500 class, Olivier Jacque in the 250 class and Valentino Rossi in the 125 class.[1]
