MotoGP is the highest category of the Motorcycle World Championship, considered the most important international competition in the field of speed motorcycling. Its organization is determined by the FIM International Motorcycle Federation), as is the case with the other categories of the championship (Moto2 and Moto3).
This is the "queen" category of the championship, since the motorcycles with the largest displacement compete in it. From the mid-1970s until 2002, the category allowed a displacement of 500cc regardless of whether the engine was a two-stroke or a four-stroke. Because of this, all engines were two-strokes thanks to their higher power delivery for the same displacement. In 2002, the regulations changed to facilitate the jump to four-strokes, probably influenced by the low market share of high displacement two-stroke street motorcycles. The new rules allowed builders to choose between two-stroke bikes (500cc or less) and four-stroke bikes ( 990cc or less).
Despite the significant cost increase that this change meant, due to the increase in displacement, the four-stroke bikes were quickly able to dominate their rivals who still used two-stroke engines. The result was that from 2003 there were no two-stroke motorcycles left in the premier class, known since then as MotoGP . Later, in 2007, the International Federation reduced the maximum displacement to 800cc ; however, in 2012 it was moved to a 1000cc format.
With this increase in displacement, the top speed record was in danger. Such a mark had been established by Dani Pedosa in 2009 at the Italian Mugello circuit, reaching 349.3 km/h with an 800cc motorcycle; Pedrosa thus surpassed Loris Capirossi, who had reached 347.4 km/h on a 990cc motorcycle.
Subsequently, there was a new speed record established in the Italian prize in Mugello, it was measured on the morning of Saturday May 31, 2014 during the "Free practice 3" or free practices 3. The pilot who achieved this feat was the Italian Andrea Iannone, aboard his powerful Ducati Desmosedici for the Pracmac Racing team. The official speed recorded by Dorna's sensors was 349.6 km/h, which is 0.312 km/h higher than the previous record to date that Dani Pedrosa had achieved in 2009 in the same setting.
Currently, the pilot, Andrea Dovizioso reached 356.7 km/h during the third free test in Mugello and established a new absolute top speed record in MotoGP.
