Eric Granado, a career between two worlds
Born on June 10, 1996, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Eric Granado is a rider jack-of-all-trades.
He began his career in 2003 by winning the Sao Paulo regional championship. After winning the title in 80 in 2008, he committed to pre-125 and 125 in the Spanish and Mediterranean championships.
He finished fifth in CEV 125 in 2011 at the age of 15. In 2012, he moved to Moto2 with the JIR team just before the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
At just over 16 years old, he is still the youngest rider to have started a race in Moto2. In 2013, he moved to Moto3 before participating in the Moto2 European Championship in 2015.
The following two years, marked by good results, were crowned with success in 2017, when he won six victories and the title during the last race in Valencia.
In 2018, he returned to the Moto2 world championship with the Forward Racing team on a Suter, but he left the team before the end of the season. In 2019, he accompanied the advent of MotoE with the Avintia Esponsorama Racing team.

Eric Granado: perseverance in action
He then signed an impressive first season with two victories that led him to a third place in the overall standings.
Quietly seventh in 2020, he bounced back in 2021 with two victories and another podium, although a disappointing final race relegated him to fourth place in the overall standings.
In 2022, he was again in the running for the title, but ended up losing it to Dominique Aegerter. For 2023, his goal was to become the first MotoE world champion in history with the LCR E-Team, but despite his efforts, four podiums including a victory in Italy, he ultimately finished seventh due to an injury sustained in the Superbike World Championship he participated in alongside the MIE Racing Honda team.
The 2024 season of the rider SHARK was very busy. In addition to competing in the MotoE world championship, which he finished 10th with 4 podiums, he became a five-time Brazilian Superbike champion.
For 2025, Granado returns to MotoE with the goal of capitalizing on his experience to finally claim the crown on the Ducati electric V21L.
