Born in Alcoy, Province of Alicante Valencia, Spain, Terol began his professional racing career in 2005. He took his first international victory in the rain-shortened 2008 Indianapolis motorcycle Grand Prix as he was leading the race at the time of the final completed lap.[1] He finished third in the 2009 championship, while he finished runner-up to Marc Márquez in the 2010 championship.

In 2013, Terol won three races with the Aspar Team, en route to a seventh-place finish in the final championship standings. Terol struggled in the 2014 campaign, taking a solitary points-scoring finish – a 14th-place finish in Argentina – as he finished in 28th place in the final championship standings.
