The Yamaha rider won both the final race of the season in Valencia and the world title as main rival and team-mate Valentino Rossi finished fourth.
Crucially, Rossi had been forced to start at the back of the grid after appearing to aim a kick at Honda's Marc Marquez in the previous race at Sepang.
Lorenzo was on pole position in Valencia and led for every one of the 30 laps to win ahead of Marquez and his Honda team-mate Dani Pedrosa.
If Rossi had finished second he would have held on to the lead he had going into the Valencia race but it proved beyond the nine-time world champion.
