Piqueras grew up in abiker family, as his Father used do tomotocross racing, with Piqueras going tocircuits with him. One day he decided to get on amotorcycle and fell in love with the sport.[2]
In 2013, Piqueras came third in the Cuna de Campeones Minibike, and came runner-up to the title in the following year. He won the 2015 110cc and 140cc Valencian Community Championship and came third in the 110cc category of the Cuna de Campeones.
Piqueras made his Moto5 debut in the 2016 Cuna de Campeones Moto5 category coming fourth in the championship, the next year he came runner-up to the title. In 2018, he embarked on a rookie campaign in the Moto4 category of the ESBK, finishing fourth before clinching the championship in 2019.
Piqueras made his debut in the second round of the2020 European Talent Cup, where he came second place in his first race atCircuito do Estoril, although he would not get on the podium throughout the rest of the season, he had a consistent campaign, finishing 5th in the championship with 93 points.
Piqueras would return to the European Talent Cup for the2021 but did not have the success he hoped, retiring from two races and another race being cancelled was a critical blow to his campaign, but he would amass three pole positions and two third places to come 7th in the standings with 86 points.
After two seasons of the European Talent Cup, Piqueras made his debut in theRed Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup in2022, the young rider made a significant impact right off the bat, garnering two pole positions in his debut round at theAlgarve International Circuit, but retired in race one and didn't start the race in race two. He turned his fortunes around atJerez, where he claimed his first podium in the series, a second place finish. In the latter half of the season starting fromSachsenring, he made a huge improvement to his campaign, securing two victories, four more pole positions and claiming six more podiums, as he finished his campaign fourth overall.
Piqueras also competed in the2022 FIM JuniorGP World Championship for the first time, where he retired from three races and withdrew from a fourth race but on the upside, he garnered three podiums and finished 5th in the championship with 105 points.
In 2023, Piqueras competed in both the2023 FIM JuniorGP World Championship and the2023 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, the same as last year but instead would storm to both titles, and in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup he amassed nine wins in 14 races, and was crowned Champion with two rounds to spare, ending the year with a historic 115-point lead over the second-placed rider in the Red Bull Rookies Cup. While in the JuniorGP World Championship he claimed four wins and five poles, ending the championship with a whopping 220 points, compared to the runner-up,Luca Lunetta's 138 points.[3][4]
Following his impressive performances, Piqueras was signed toLeopard Racing for the2024 Moto3 World Championship, the team oflast year's riders champion,Jaume Masià. Piqueras would partnerAdrián Fernández for the season.[5]
Piqueras scored his maiden podium in only his third race in theUnited States, where he also claimed his teams 100th podium ever.[6] AtAssen he got his first pole position, but would finish the race in eighth.[7]
Following retirement inGreat Britain andAragón, Piqueras took back-to-back podiums atSan Marino andEmilia Romagna, which were both run atMisano Circuit. He took his first victory at San Marino as well.[8][9]
The Asian swing of Piqueras' campaign wasn't as successful, retiring fromJapan,Thailand andMalaysia. He bounced back in the final round of the season atValencia, where he got a final podium. Piqueras finished his first season inGrand Prix motorcycle racing in 8th with 153 points.[10]
