#2 Casey Stoner
Casey Stoner, a retired Australian professional motorcycle road racer, is a two-time MotoGP world championship winner which he won in 2007 and 2011.
After his retirement, he served as a test and developmental driver for Ducati from 2016 till 2018. Stoner was born in Queensland but had to move to the United Kingdom to pursue his racing career.
His ability to ride any bike over it's perceived limits was his greatest talents. He was able to win on a much inferior Ducati bike than a Honda or a Yamaha.
2007 world championship, which Stoner won, remains Ducati's only world championship till date.
He always had some intense battles with Valentino Rossi but somehow always seemed to be behind on the table as Rossi went on to win the championships the next two season.
In 2010, he moved to Repsol Honda where he won the championship in 2011. He was the winner of six consecutive Grand Prix's on his home soil.
Casey was an amazing racer who had performed well at the world stage but always seemed to be in the shadow of Valentino Rossi who was enjoying his best years at the time Stoner's retirement in 2012.
