Pedro Acosta is having an impressive MotoGP debut. The 20-year-old rookie had two consecutive falls in Sunday’s race but fell out of the lead. And it’s not the first time he’s been with the best, but he already has two podiums on his record with another three in the Sprint. He is sixth overall with 83 points.
Crack numbers that suggest that next year he will be in the official team of KTM and will abandon the structure ofl Red Bull GasGas Tech3. In fact, this was confirmed by half of his current team leader, Hervé Poncharal.
“We are realistic. It’s not very likely that Acosta will still be racing with our team next year. We will probably lose. But ultimately this is not a real loss. Pedro has a contract for next year and in any case will continue with Gruppo Pierer Mobility. In the end, this is what matters,” he said in remarks collected by GPOne.
The natural step is the ‘Mazarrón Shark’ He will go to the official KTM team, along with Binder, and he will be dressed in the same colors that he has impressed the entire paddock with in both Moto2 and Moto3 in the three years he has been in the World Championship.
“Pedro has the confidence and speed to help Binder, Miller and Augusto. Our advantage is that we, Mr. Bierer, Pit Beirer, Hubert Trunkenpolz and Heinz Kinigadner have the same understanding and vision in MotoGP. We are happy to have done this decision is mutual and Pedro has an agreement with a very strong brand.”
