Top Ten Best MotoGP Riders of all Times – Top Rated
10. Casey Stoner (45 Wins)
One can only wonder how high is the ranking of Casey Stoner and how high he ended up his career if he hadn’t decided to retire at the age of 27 years of age. Famous Casey Stoner has won 45 winnings, which are equal to the record of Jim Redman, but since he took 38 of his victory on top-class bikes against two for Redman, we have put him on the number 10 position among the Top Ten Best MotoGP Riders of all Times.
9. Marc Marques (50 Winnings and Still Counting)
Marc Marques is one of the leading riders since 2013 and 2014, but it’s surprising to know that Marques isn’t achieved a high position in the list given by Bikes Catalog. Since he is just 22 and is still racing among other riders. Currently, the majority of his winning has been on a smaller-class motorcycle, with only 24 coming on MotoGP machines. He competed in 48 MotoGP races so far, and he has excellent potential to gain more winnings in the future.
8. Dani Pedrosa (50 Winnings and Still Counting)
The Famous MotoGP rider Dani Pedrosa is placed on the 8th position among the Top Ten Best MotoGP Riders of all Times, even though he has completed most of the races on the second spot.

7. Phil Read (52 Winnings)
Britain’s most famous and one of the successful rider of all times in the world of the championship and competing in GP titles with 125cc, 250cc, and 500cc classes. During his career, he won 11 races on 500s, which surprisingly placed him on the list of 21st if the file is restricted to premier-class successes.
6. Mick Doohan (54 Winnings)
Doohan is one of those riders who have achieved much more than his statistics suggest, if only he hadn’t suffered horrible injuries. During his career, he faced a lot of other great riders like Rainey and Schwantz. Every single one of the 54 winnings of Mick Doohan on his 500cc bike that put him on the 6th position. On the top class winnings only, he ranks higher still in third place.
