Dani Pedrosa started racing on pocket bikes, which he became the Spanish champion in 1998. His participation in the Movistar Cup the following season was deciding for his career. Alberto Puig, creator of this detection championship, was convinced by the potential of this young rider. In 2000, Dani Pedrosa took part in the 125 cc Spanish championship (4 poles and a 4th final place). After a first learning season, he earnt his first victory at Assen in 2002 and finished the championship in 3rd position. In 2003, he clinched the title (60 points ahead of Alex de Angelis) even if he missed the two last rounds (two ankles broken in a crash at Philip Island). After a difficult winter, he won the 250 cc class opening round and, eventually, was crowned for his first season. Announced in MotoGP, he staid in the 250 cc class and kept his title ahead of Casey Stoner. The logical continuation was his arrival in MotoGP with the official Honda squad in 2006. Best rookie (5th with two victories), he won his first Grand Prix in China, his fifth race in the premier class. Vice-champion in 2007, Dani Pedrosa is a candidate for the title. Protected by Alberto Puig, he is a discrete rider in the paddock but is extremely determined on the track.
