List of Grand Prix motorcycle racing rider records

This is a list of all-time Grand Prix motorcycle racing (50cc/80cc, MotoE, 125cc/Moto3, 250cc/Moto2, 350cc, and 500cc/MotoGP classes) rider records, since 1949. Riders that have competed in the 2026 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season are highlighted in bold.

This page is accurate as of the 2026 Japanese Grand Prix.

Race entered and started Riders are considered to be entered into a race if they attempt to compete in at least one official practice session with the intent of entering the race. These riders are noted on the entry list for that race. A rider is considered to have started a race if they line up on the grid or at the pitlane exit for the start of the race. If a race is stopped and restarted, participation in any portion of the race is counted, but only if that portion was in any way counted towards the final classification.
