The 2022 Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix (officially known as the Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana) was the twentieth and final round of the 2022 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. It was held at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia on 6 November 2022. The MotoGP riders' championship was decided in this race between Fabio Quartararo and Francesco Bagnaia. Bagnaia secured his first MotoGP riders' title after finishing in ninth, as Quartararo's fourth-place-finish was eventually not enough to successfully defend his title. This was also the last race for Suzuki as a factory team in the premier class since they returned in 2015.
In the Moto2 class, Augusto Fernández claimed the riders' title by finishing in second behind Pedro Acosta, whilst his closest championship rival Ai Ogura retired after an accident. This was also the final Grand Prix in Moto2 for Simone Corsi, Jorge Navarro, Cameron Beaubier, and Marcel Schrötter.
