Answer 1

Teams dont want older riders. If you are already a teenager now, I would pretty much forget it mate.

Harsh, but true.

You need to racing [ anything ] mini-moto / go cart / off road dirt bikes, when you are about 6.

Be a club champion by 8.

Be signed up by a local main agent by 10.

Be in the MotoGP Academy in Spain by 12.

Be winning the Spanish Championship by 14.

Be racing full time for a factory team by 15.

Be racing full time for one the best Aprillia teams in the world by 16.

....................... or just be called be Bradley Smith, as that is his last few years.

This takes over a decade to plan for, massive talent and parents who are willing to sell there home just to get you there ( ALA Smith, Hopkins & Stoner, to name a few )

Answer 2

What is your racing experience now? If you have a local track then just start running there and try to find a road racing school or some private instruction. Even off-road racing will help to some extent. Becoming a pro in any type of racing takes an amount of determination and work ethic that not many of us posses, but if it is your dream then go for it. Just know that it will takes lots of hard work and years of seat time.
