Marc Marquez just won the 93rd Grand Prix of his career at the Italian MotoGP 2025 and extended his lead as the third rider with the most grand prix wins in MotoGP history. Since its inception in 1949, the championship has produced a number of legends who have etched their names in history with remarkable records and performances.
Among these legends are the ones with so many grand prix wins that it almost makes us question the talent of the riders and the consistency of the team producing the results. From the GOAT Giacomo Agostini to the current legend, Marc Marquez, let’s take a look at the top 4 riders with the most Grand Prix wins in MotoGP history.
4 Riders With The Most Grand Prix Wins In MotoGP
Giacomo Agostini
No discussion of MotoGP legends is ever complete without mentioning Giacomo Agostini. He holds the all-time high record for the most grand prix wins in MotoGP history, with a remarkable 122 wins across multiple classes from 1964 to 1977.
His dominance was most prominent during his stint with MV Agusta, where he claimed seven consecutive premier class world championships from 1966 to 1972, later adding another one in 1975 with Yamaha. His win rate was so extraordinary that he won every race that he finished over five seasons. His technique, precision and riding adaptability set a benchmark that remains untouched.
Valentino Rossi
Valentino Rossi is second on the all-time most grand prix wins in MotoGP history. He has won 115 Grand Prix, including a record 89 in the premier class. Rossi’s career spanned from 1996 to 2021, which also made him a global superstar and the face of MotoGP. He claimed seven premier class world titles and 199 podiums, leaving a legacy that’s unmatched even today.
Marc Marquez
Marc Marquez recently overtook Angel Nieto to become the third in the list of most grand prix wins in MotoGP history. He now has 93 wins under his name as of Italian MotoGP 2025, and considering the form he’s in now, he might overtake Valentino Rossiem by the end of the 2025 season. His premier class record includes 62 victories and six world championships.
He also became the youngest premier-class world champion in history. Despite injuries interrupting his career, he seamlessly rose through the ranks to etch his name in the list of MotoGP legends.
Angel Nieto
Angel Nieto may not be as globally recognised as Agostini or Rossi, but his achievements are no lesser. He has a record of 90 Grand Prix, placing him fourth in the list of most Grand Prix wins in MotoGP history. His most dominant form was during 1969-1985, primarily in the 50cc and 125cc categories. His technical understanding and tactics gave him a slight edge over his opponents, making him one of the greatest riders to ever live.
