Pedro Acosta He is focused all weekend in Buriram on the pace of this Sunday’s Moto2 race where his first chance to become champion is at stake. That left little chance for Fermín Aldeguer, who was already the Australian polesitter and tied for second in the freestyle, to take first place at his own expense. And finally, 1” thousandths separated the two young Murcians, with Fermín signing the fourth.
To be champion this Sunday, Acosta needs to add 19 points to his rival and only two assumptions are valid: win the race and Arbolino is 10th or worse or second and the Italian is 15th or even worse. As a result of the time trial, Bo will be the champion. He would finish second, but Arbolino would delay the alirón by finishing eighth. But the highlight of the weekend remains.
Tony Arbolino, who dominated the second third of the championship, had another gray weekend and compromised his fight for a good grid position with the morning crash in FP3, where he managed just four laps that finished in 26th place overall, although he did make the cut with the second best time.
And while that was happening Pedro Acosta He calmly looked at it on the monitor in his box. The Murcian was in Buriram in a completely opposite mode, in true champion mode. His goal on Sunday is to get first even if it means second to force things and that’s what he’s doing. It wasn’t until Q2 that he signed up for all the practice sessions and in aggregate he led his compatriot Aldeguer by almost half a second and García Dols by six tenths.
Salac’s fall left Acosta unmarked due to the yellow flag and he progressed well enough to fifth place, guiding Chantra and especially his teammate Arenas up, two men who should be in between to the two ‘Sharks’ of the World Cup to subtract. pointing to ‘Squalo di Garbagnate’. Meanwhile, Aldeguer took the lead with 1’35″596.
And the man from Puerto de Mazarrón was sure that he left the cars of the small train and went to the provisional pole with 1’35″548. Aldeguer accepted the bet (1’35″371) and Acosta He lost his option to improve in T3, but no one moved him from the front row.
