A list of items, signed by both current and former MotoGP riders, along with other memorabilia have been sold in an effort to support Valencia following the recent floods that resulted in over 200 people losing their lives.

MotoGP collaborated with the Spanish Red Cross to allow fans the opportunity to buy memorabilia, including a Moto3 title-winning bike from Maverick Vinales and one of the first Moto2 motorcycles, with all the funds going to the Valencia region.

As a result of the mass floods, MotoGP moved its season-finale to Barcelona which crowned Jorge Martin champion for the first time in his premier-class career.

Here’s a list of the best sellers.

£41,497 for Maverick Vinales’ 2013 Moto3 title-winning bike.

£25,728 for one of the first-ever Moto2 bikes, donated by Dorna’s Carmelo Ezpeleta

£15,147 Yamaha VIP experience at 2025 Buriram season opener

£7,884 for Valentino Rossi’s signed helmet

£7,470 for a Roby Starline helmet signed by MotoGP riders

£6,640 for Aleix Espargaro’s leathers

£5,851 for VIP experience for two people at a 2025 MotoGP round

£5,810 for the front fairing from Dani Pedrosa’s first KTM

£4,980 for Fabio Quartararo’s helmet

£4,150 for Miguel Oliveira’s leathers

£3,943 for Aleix Espargaro’s paddock scooter

Some other notable items sold included a Raul Fernandez helmet, a pair of Fabio Quartararo’s Alpinestars boots, Alex Criville signed leathers from his time at Honda, a signed Danilo Petrucci Tech 3 KTM fairing and Fabio Quartararo gloves, among plenty of others which helped raise a total of £218,860.

The impressive fund total raised comes off the back of the Barcelona finale being one of the most well attended races in recent history, while MotoGP enjoyed its most successful season ever in terms of attendance throughout the entire campaign.
