Season summary 250px|thumb|right|Mick Doohan (3) leads Kevin Schwantz (34), Wayne Rainey (1) and John Kocinski (19) at the 1991 Japanese Grand Prix The beginning of the 1990s marked a golden age for Grand Prix motorcycle racing.Dennis Noyes 1999 Michael Scott Motocourse: 50 Years Of Moto Grand Prix Hazleton Publishing Ltd 1-874557-83-7 The rivalry between Wayne Rainey and Kevin Schwantz was in full flow while Mick Doohan started to come into his own. Eddie Lawson had switched to Cagiva and started to have some respectable results. In a one-year quirk, only 13 races counted, as competitors were allowed to drop their two worst scores. The Yugoslavia round was dropped because of the civil war and replaced with a Grand Prix of Europe at Jarama. The Brazilian round was also dropped at the last minute over track safety concerns and replaced with a race held at Le Mans. The inaugural Malaysian Grand Prix was held at Shah Alam. For the 1991 season, Michelin decided to supply only the Rothmans Honda team with tires; everybody else used Dunlops.Scott, Michael: "Wayne Rainey", page 151. Haynes Publishing, 1997. Luca Cadalora won the 250 title in a dominating fashion with eight wins. In the 125 class, Italian teenager Loris Capirossi swept to the title for the second consecutive year. 1991 Grand Prix season calendar The following Grands Prix were scheduled to take place in 1991:http://www.jumpingjack.nl/GP-races_1991_heden.htm https://archive.today/20150725170127/http://www.jumpingjack.nl/GP-races_1991_heden.htm dead Grand Prix uitslagen en bijzonderheden 1991 25 July 2015 25 July 2015https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/database/championships/motogp/1991-world-motorcycle-championship 1991 World Motorcycle Championship 12 June 2017 RoundDateGrand PrixCircuit 1 24 March Japan 1870 Kibun Japanese Grand Prix Suzuka Circuit 2 7 April Australia Tooheys Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix Eastern Creek Raceway 3 21 April United States United States International Grand Prix Laguna Seca Raceway 4 12 May Spain Gran Premio de España Circuito Permanente de Jerez 5 19 May Italy Gran Premio d'Italia Misano World Circuit 6 26 May Germany Großer Preis von Deutschland für Motorräder Hockenheimring 7 9 June Austria Großer Preis von Österreich Salzburgring 8 16 June Europe G.P de Europa Circuito Permanente Del Jarama 9 29 June Netherlands Dutch TT TT Circuit Assen 10 21 July France Grand Prix de France Circuit Paul Ricard 11 4 August UK Shell British Motorcycle Grand Prix Donington Park 12 18 August San Marino 1862 San Marino Grand Prix Mugello Circuit 13 25 August Czechoslovakia Czechoslovak motorcycle Grand Prix Brno Circuit 14 8 September Pays de la Loire Vitesse du Mans Grand Prix Bugatti Circuit 15 29 September Malaysia Lucky Strike Malaysia Grand Prix Shah Alam Circuit Calendar changes The Australian Grand Prix was moved forward, from 16 September to 7 April.
