The 2010 Spanish motorcycle Grand Prix, officially the Gran Premio bwin de España, was the second round of the 2010 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. It took place on the weekend of 30 April–2 May 2010 at the Circuito de Jerez located in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Jorge Lorenzo snatched a last-lap win in the MotoGP race to move top of the world championship standings.

This event would be the last podium for Japanese Moto2 rider, Shoya Tomizawa; who finished in second place, before his death in 6 September 2010 at the 2010 San Marino Grand Prix.

Moto2 classification

The Moto2 race was red-flagged on the second lap after a fluid spill caused many riders to fall in the same turn. The race was later restarted, with the distance shortened to 17 laps from the original 26.
