Rule Changes
- A number of rule changes were enacted for the 2010 season. They included reductions to test mileage, the introduction of engines with prolonged life, the use of cast iron brakes instead of carbon brakes, the use of only one spare bike, and the cancellation of one of the Friday practice sessions. Despite this, two Friday practice sessions were held in Aragón and the final two races.
- From 2010 on, rookies in the MotoGP class are permitted to sign only with privately owned teams. Suzuki are exempt from this rule, as they only run one factory team and have no satellite teams.

Famous quotes containing the word rule:
“To me the “female principle” is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“It is an endless and frivolous Pursuit to act by any other Rule than the Care of satisfying our own Minds in what we do.”
—Richard Steele (1672–1729)
