Reader's Guide

It states that Aprilia has 124 times won 125 and 250 cc class Grand Prix and 15 Road Racing World Championship titles, but does not list specific consecutive constructors' titles or rider championships for those classes beyond the names mentioned. Therefore, the exact sequence of constructors' titles in the 125cc class in the mid-1990s is unclear from the source. It does not state that Dovizioso won three consecutive 250cc titles or that he became a four-time World Champion.
