==Racing career== Born in [[Modena]], [[Emilia Romagna]], Cadalora began his professional motorcycle racing career in [[1984 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1984]], riding an [[Morbidelli|MBA]] in the 125cc world championship. In [[1986 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1986]], he won the [[List of 125cc Motorcycle World Champions|125cc World Championship]] while riding for the [[Garelli Motorcycles|Garelli]] factory racing team. His success earned him a promotion to the 250cc class with [[Giacomo Agostini]]'s Marlboro [[Yamaha Motor Company|Yamaha]] factory racing team in [[1986 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1986]]. In [[1991 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1991]], Cadalora switched to the Rothmans [[Honda]] factory racing team and won the [[List of 250cc/Moto2 Motorcycle World Champions|250cc World Championship]] aboard an [[Erv Kanemoto]]-tuned [[Honda NSR250]].<ref name="Luca Cadalora profile at crash.net">[http://www.crash.net/MotoGP/racer_bio/147/luca_cadalora.html Luca Cadalora profile at crash.net] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090821010802/http://www.crash.net/motogp/racer_bio/147/luca_cadalora.html |date=2009-08-21 }}</ref> He successfully defended his title with Honda in [[1992 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1992]], claiming his third world championship.

In [[1993 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1993]], Cadalora rose to the premier 500cc division as [[Wayne Rainey|Wayne Rainey's]] teammate in the [[Kenny Roberts]]-[[Yamaha Motor Corporation|Yamaha]] team.<ref name="Luca Cadalora profile at crash.net"/> In three seasons on the Roberts Yamaha, he displayed flashes of brilliance, finishing as high as second to [[Mick Doohan]] in [[1994 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1994]]. Cadalora rejoined Kanemoto for the [[1996 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1996]] season racing a Honda [[NSR500]]. Despite lacking any major sponsors, he still managed to finish the season in third place aboard the Kanemoto-Honda.<ref name="MotoGP.com October 19"/><ref name="Luca Cadalora profile at crash.net"/>

For the [[1997 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1997]] season, Cadalora got a contract as official Yamaha rider in the new Promotor Racing team backed by an Austrian businessman. However, after few races the team failed due to financial problems. [[World Championship Motorsports|WCM]] rescued the team with the help of a [[Red Bull]] sponsorship and Cadalora ended the season in sixth place. At the beginning of the [[1998 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1998]] season, WCM and Cadalora lost Yamaha official support. He returned to the Rainey-Yamaha works team for a few races to replace an injured [[Jean-Michel Bayle]], then helped develop the new [[MZ Motorrad- und Zweiradwerk|MuZ]] race bike. In [[1999 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season|1999]] he was again with MuZ. Cadalora finished his career with [[Kenny Roberts]]' [[Modenas]] team in 2000.<ref name="MotoGP.com October 19"/><ref name="Luca Cadalora profile at crash.net"/>

Cadalora retired with 34 Grand Prix victories in three different classes.<ref name="MotoGP.com October 19"/>
