Welcome Aboard, Rookie! is the first championship you finish. Championship family, 0.7 percent. Finishing is not winning. First Crown! is the win, at 0.6 percent, and the gap between those two numbers is tiny because almost nobody has reached the end of a season yet. The rookie icon is the one that ticks when you simply see the season out.

Championship is the lighter season available now. A full career, with the depth the launch notes point at a later iteration, is not this menu. You are riding a series. On Xbox the prize described for the mode is the red plate, and that plate is the winner's problem. Your problem, for this icon, is completing the rounds. Weekender, a single full GP weekend, is the building block. A season is several of those. Quitting after one weekend can tick Weekender and leave the rookie icon dark.

Full House, Jeffrey's 114 GP wins and Tony's six successive championships are the rest of the family, and they are all at 0.1 percent. None of them is a substitute for finishing one season. You can chase holeshots and best laps inside the rounds, and those racing icons will tick on their own schedule. The season result is a separate line. Both classes share the calendar of 19 tracks. You do not need a win on every track for this icon. Around the World is the racing icon that asks for that.

Save often enough that a crash of the game is not a lost season. PC Update 1 fixed a Player Progression crash and a batch of online crashes. If you are running the season on the raw launch build, install the patch first. Offline is the predictable way to finish. Online lobbies cap at 10 and can fail to fill. An MXGP offline grid of 20 or an MX2 grid of 16 will be there every round. Pick one class and stay with it until the final checker.
