Kawasaki Racing Team, Yamaha Factory Racing Team and Red Bull Honda have been fighting for the lead ever since the start of the Suzuka 8 Hours.

Another race – for the world title – is taking place within the grand finale of the 2018-2019 FIM Endurance World Championship.

Team SRC Kawasaki France, who got to Suzuka as the standings topper with a mere 5-point lead, are lapping in 14th place, so are currently not in a position to retain their spot as leader.
