For the tenth consecutive year, Tissot is the official timekeeper of MotoGP, the fastest and most prestigious motorcycle racing circuit in the world. In MotoGP, the world's most elite motorcycle riders race insanely fast superbikes around the track in excess of 200 mph. Needless to say, timing motorcycles with this kind of speed and acceleration requires a highly accurate timekeeping system.
The timekeeping department of Dorna Sports, which runs MotoGP, record the performance of every rider in every class in every free practice, qualifying practice, warm-up session and race throughout the season. This is done to within one thousandth of a second from an allocated room at each circuit, usually adjacent to the Race Direction facility.
To simultaneously track all riders with this level of precision, high-tech radio modules must be mounted underneath the front fairing of each bike. The modules communicate with digital sensors along the track as riders pass each respective checkpoint, including the finish line.
Additionally, high-speed photo finish equipment constantly records racers as they cross the finish line for use in the event that two or more bikes cross simultaneously. In the rare circumstance that the photo finish equipment does not show a definite winner (a tie), the rider with the best single lap time wins.
MotoGP races depend on a highly accurate live-timing system that ensures all riders' times are recorded using the official timekeepers, as well as being simultaneously transmitted to media organizations, race teams, and fans across the world.
