Pedro Acosta He detailed the strategy and made it clear that the mistake was his. “My strategy was the same as yesterday: follow Pecco in the first sector and prepare for overtaking. However, I accelerated too early and the suspension extended earlier than expected, causing the front axle to lock .”
anyway, Acosta He wants to highlight the positive aspects and that is that KTM is establishing itself as the most competitive motorcycle and the only one that, at times, can face the incomparable Ducati.
That is why the KTM rider believes that risks must be taken to take advantage of the few opportunities they have to “fight head-on” with Ducati. “There are few chances of beating the Ducati. There are times in life when you have to take a chance. And even more so when Pecco is ahead. He’s not going to take risks, but I will,” Acosta emphasized.
