He won three Grand Prix world championship titles: in the 125cc class in 2003, the 250cc class in 2004, and the 250cc class in 2005. He is the youngest champion of all time in the intermediate (250cc/Moto2) class.<ref>{{Cite web |last=motogp.com |date=2023-11-12 |title=Pedro Acosta, the youngest intermediate class Champion since Pedrosa |url=https://www.motogp.com/en/news/2023/11/12/pedro-acosta-the-youngest-intermediate-class-champion-since-pedrosa/www.motogp.com/en/news/2023/11/12/pedro-acosta-the-youngest-intermediate-class-champion-since-pedrosa/483442 |access-date=2026-01-05 |website=The Official Home of MotoGP |language=en}}</ref>

In 2006, Pedrosa moved into the MotoGP class to ride for Repsol Honda, where he would remain for the next thirteen years. He took 31 race wins and 112 podiums during this time, and finished as championship runner-up in 2007, 2010 and 2012. He is often cited as the best rider to never win a MotoGP championship.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Matias |first=Bernardo |date=2023-12-31 |title=The 2023 Season for Wildcards and replacement riders in MotoGP: Dani Pedrosa stood out |url=https://motorcyclesports.net/the-2023-season-for-wildcards-and-replacement-riders-in-motogp-dani-pedrosa-stood-out/ |access-date=2024-01-30 |website=Motorcycle Sports |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2026-01-04 |title=Why Dani Pedrosa became a MotoGP legend but never a champion |url=https://www.autosport.com/motogp/news/why-dani-pedrosa-became-a-motogp-legend-but-never-a-champion-5285359/5285359/ |access-date=2026-01-05 |website=www.autosport.com |language=en}}</ref> He retired from regular competition at the end of the 2018 season.<ref name="retirement2">[http://www.motogp.com/en/news/2018/07/12/pedrosa-announces-retirement/264728 Pedrosa announces retirement] motogp.com, 12 July 2018.

==Career==

===Early career=== Born in Sabadell, Catalonia, Spain, Pedrosa started riding bikes at the early age of four, when he got his first motorcycle, an Italjet 50, which had side-wheels. His first racing bike was a minibike replica of a Kawasaki, which he got at the age of six and which he used to race with his friends. Pedrosa experienced real racing at the age of 9 when he entered the Spanish Minibike Championship and ended his debut season in second place, scoring his first podium finish in the second race of the season. The next year, Pedrosa entered the same championship, but health problems prevented him from improving his results, and he ended that season in 3rd position.

===125cc World Championship=== In 2001, Pedrosa made his World Championship debut in the 125cc class after being selected from the Movistar Activa Cup, a series designed to promote fresh racing talent in Spain, back in 1999. Under the guidance of Alberto Puig, Pedrosa scored two podium finishes in the first season and won his first race the following year, when he finished third in the championship. In 2003, he won five races and won the championship with two rounds remaining, scoring 223 points. In his first championship-winning year, Pedrosa scored five victories and six podium finishes. A week after winning the championship, eighteen-year-old Pedrosa broke both of his ankles in a crash during practice at Phillip Island, ending his season.

===250cc World Championship=== After winning the 125cc Championship, Pedrosa moved up to the 250cc class in 2004 without a proper test on the new bike because his ankles were healing during the off-season. Going into the season unprepared, Pedrosa won the first race in South Africa and went on to clinch the 250cc World Championship title, including rookie of the year honours. In his first season in the 250cc class, Pedrosa scored 7 victories and 13 podium finishes. Pedrosa decided to stay for one more season in the 250cc class, and he won another title, once again with two races remaining in the championship. In 2005, Pedrosa won 8 races and scored 14 podium finishes, despite a shoulder injury he sustained in a practice session for the Japanese Grand Prix.

===MotoGP World Championship=== [[File:Dani Pedrosa.JPG|thumb|right|Pedrosa on board the Repsol Honda RC211V at the 2006 Australian Grand Prix]]

====2006==== Pedrosa made the move to 990cc MotoGP bikes in {{MGP|2006}}, riding for Repsol Honda. Critics said that Pedrosa's tiny stature was not strong enough to handle a big, heavy MotoGP bike and successfully race in the premier class. Proving critics wrong, he finished second in the opening round at Jerez on 26 March 2006. At his fourth ever MotoGP appearance, on 14 May 2006, during the Chinese Grand Prix, he won his first race. This win made him the equal 2nd youngest winner (tied with Norick Abe) in the premier class at the time,<ref name="motoGP.com">{{cite news | url=http://www.motogp.com/en/riders/profiles/Dani+Pedrosa | title=Dani Pedrosa | publisher=motogp.com | access-date=15 April 2008 | archive-date=24 June 2010 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100624100029/http://www.motogp.com/en/riders/profiles/Dani+Pedrosa | url-status=dead }}</ref> behind Freddie Spencer. He won his second MotoGP race at Donington Park and became a strong candidate for the MotoGP Championship. It was a memorable victory for Pedrosa, who shared the podium for the first time with Valentino Rossi in 2nd place. He also took two pole positions in the first half of the season. Until the Malaysian Grand Prix at Sepang, Pedrosa was 2nd in the Championship only behind his more experienced teammate Nicky Hayden. However, he fell heavily during free practice and suffered a severe gash to the knee, which practically rendered him immobile. Pedrosa qualified 5th on the grid in that race after heavy rain cancelled the qualifying session. He managed to finish 3rd in the race, behind Rossi and Ducati rider Loris Capirossi.

However, in the next races, Pedrosa's form dropped and he struggled with the bike, moving him down to 5th place in the MotoGP standings. His poor performance continued at Estoril. After a promising start, he briefly ran 2nd before being passed by Colin Edwards and then championship leader and teammate Hayden. On lap 5, he and Hayden were involved in a crash. Pedrosa made a mistake whilst trying to overtake Hayden, slid and crashed out of the race, taking out Hayden on the way. This crash ended his slim chances of winning the championship and also caused Hayden to lose his lead in the championship standings, as Rossi managed to finish 2nd. However, two weeks later, Hayden recovered to win the championship while Pedrosa managed to finish in 4th place. This result clinched his 5th place in overall standings in his debut season, thus taking the title as Rookie of the Year, beating former 250cc rival Casey Stoner. At the end of season three-day test of 2006 at Jerez, Pedrosa put his 800 cc RC212V at the top of the timesheets (on qualifying tyres) edging out Rossi, who had been fastest on the first two days, by 0.214 seconds.
