context_section_description: 1989
  For the 1989 season, Crivillé moved to the JJ Cobas team of grand prix mechanic and constructor Antonio Cobas.
  While the team opted to skip the opening round in Japan, Crivillé scored back-to-back wins in Australia and Spain, scoring his first ever podium in the latter. He retired at the Nations GP but took the fastest lap.
  Another win followed at round five in Germany, with a third place (and fastest lap) in Austria and a second place in the Netherlands as well.
  Another retirement followed at the Belgian GP, but Crivillé responded with two consecutive second places in France and Great Britain and two poles in the last two races in Sweden and Czechoslovakia, which he went on to win.
  Crivillé won the championship with 166 points to Spaan's 152, with Ezio Gianola third with 138 points. He clinched his first, and only, 125cc title.
