Casey Stoner believes Mick Doohan is the best rider to have ever competed in MotoGP, not Valentino Rossi or Marc Marquez.
In a recent interview, former MotoGP champion Casey Stoner shared his perspective on the greatest riders of all time. While many fans debate between Rossi and Marquez, Stoner believes it is his fellow Australian, Rossi, who deserves the title, citing his success before and after career-threatening injuries. Stoner also considers Giacomo Agostini and Mick Doohan as legends in their own right, with Doohan being often overlooked due to his lower championship and race wins, but Stoner admires his ability to come back from injury. Stoner also praises Dani Pedrosa, calling him the most underrated rider, as his small stature made it difficult to handle the powerful MotoGP bikes, yet he was incredibly fast. Racing against Pedrosa throughout his career, Stoner acknowledges his impressive skills.
