Top 10 fastest times set in MotoGP

MotoGP™ is getting faster and faster with each passing year as the world’s top engineers and riders aim to eke out any potential advantage they can find on their bikes. The results speak for themselves, with the Top 10 speeds ever recorded on MotoGP™ machines coming in the past five years.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at the Official Top 10 speeds ever recorded in the MotoGP™ World Championship.

Topping the list is Johann Zarco on the Pramac Ducati. He managed to do it during FP4 at the 2021 Barwa GP of Qatar at the Losail International Circuit. What's amazing is that it breaks a long streak of the fastest times only occuring at the Mugello Circuit. Which means we could possibly be updating this blog when MotoGP rolls around to Mugello later this season.

After Zarco, Dovizioso occupies the next three spots on the speed sheets. Michele Pirro, Andrea Iannone and Petrucci all appear on the Official Top 10 speeds list all of which underlines Ducati’s dominance in the power stakes.
