WELCOME
Welcome to the power, to the passion and to the world of premier motorcycle racing. Welcome to MotoGP 07. Race against the best, on the best, using the latest in bike technology, on world renowned tracks, against the world's best riders from the MotoGP 07 series, as you break away from the pack and win race after race for the ultimate crown of MotoGP Champion 2007. You have everything to race for!
TUTORIAL
The first time you play MotoGP 07, try Tutorial Mode. This will help you decide what motorcycle and racing style suits you best. To enter Tutorial Mode, select START TUTORIAL from the Main Menu and press the button. The tutorial immediately plunges you into an arcade race, and offers racing hints and tips from the start. To access the tips, press the START button to enter the Pause Menu. From here, you can alter the racing model (ARCADE, ADVANCED or SIMULATION), change your transmission, or exit Tutorial Mode. In Tutorial Mode, you also have the option to receive live tips. With this option activated, the game judges your riding style and offers advice wherever needed.
MAIN MENU
QUICK RACE
Choose your favorite track, rider (press the R1 button to switch between game and real rider statistics), difficulty level, riding model (ARCADE, ADVANCED and SIMULATION), transmission type, number of laps and weather conditions. Then hit the tarmac and don't look back!
TIME ATTACK
This option lets you set the best time for every circuit, competing against yourself to shave vital seconds off your record. Select your circuit and rider, then start racing. You can choose to have a ghost rider appear after the first valid lap you complete. This ghost reruns your previous best lap, enabling you to judge where you can best make improvements to improve your lap time.
Just when you think you've shaved off every last possible second, you can challenge the unlockable LEGEND GHOSTS featuring a near-perfect lap!

Championship Mode recreates the entire MotoGP 07 series. Configure your championship from 6 to 18 circuits, and choose whether to include qualifying laps and real lap numbers for each race.
You can also choose your rider, configure the weather, riding model and transmission, and set the difficulty level. Before each race, you'll have the option to alter the mechanical set-up of your bike. This includes changing tires, suspension stiffness, turning speed and gear ratios.
