All four FIM Endurance World Championship titles will be fought out during the season-deciding Bol d’Or from 12-15 September. Here’s a reminder of what’s at stake and who’s where in the standings after three rounds.
FIM Endurance World Championship for Teams
With a maximum haul of 65 points up for grabs, four outfits remain in contention for the FIM Endurance World Championship for Teams starting the Bol d’Or. Yamalube YART Yamaha EWC Official Team, the defending champion, is first on 116 points followed by Yoshimura SERT Motul on 110. BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team (72 points) and Tati Team Beringer Racing (61 points) can still claim the crown but would need to score big at Circuit Paul Ricard and hope that the YART and SERT teams don’t.
FIM Endurance World Cup for Teams
The race to win the FIM Endurance World Cup is also far from settled. National Motos Honda FMA might hold a commanding 53-point advantage in the Dunlop-equipped category, but with Superstock teams counting their best three scores out of four, 3ART Best of Bike, Chromeburner-RAC 41-Honda, Japanese newcomer Team Étoile and Aviobike by M2 Revocan all come out on top given any one of these teams can still score a total of 65 points in the Superstock category. National Motos Honda FMA was on course to claim the title last year until a mechanical failure struck with a little more than 20 minutes remaining. This year’s Bol d’Or is a gilt-edged opportunity for the stalwart EWC outfit to get revenge, but the team still faces the prospect of having to drop its lowest score.
FIM Endurance World Championship for Manufacturers
Yamaha, which is on 122 points, leads Honda by five points with Suzuki on 90, Kawasaki on 78, BMW on 59 and Ducati on 19. The two best finishers from each manufacturer score points according to their position in the race using the same allocation as the Teams’ championship. 
FIM Endurance World Cup for Manufacturers.
In the Superstock-based FIM Endurance World Cup for Manufacturers, which uses the same points scoring system as the FIM Endurance World Championship for Manufacturers, Honda’s advantage over Yamaha is 34 points (150 compared to 116). BMW is next on 85, followed by Kawasaki (83) and Suzuki (49).
