Loris Capirossi
Twenty-one seasons in MotoGP and nine in the premier class make Loris Capirossi's experience in the sport worthy of high accolades. For 2011, he kicks heels with Pramac Racing aiming to clinch 100 podiums in the championship. Capirossi started his career in the 125cc class at the tender age of 17, became champion in his debut season in 1990 and managed to defend it the following year. In the 250cc category, he clinched the title in his seventh attempt. The premier class then knocked and he eventually made the switch in 2000. In 11 seasons in the top class, he registered eight wins with Honda and Ducati. He is thus the only rider along with Valentino Rossi to have won a race in all categories. Although his stint with Suzuki has been far from what he is capable of, he is certainly one to watch.
