Acosta: “We are approaching the podium, which is what we lack”

The driver of Red Bull Ktm Motogp Pedro Acosta.

The Mazarronero is the eighth class classmates with 98 points, far from 307 with Marc Márquez, who led the table with 68 advantage with respect to his brother álex. Last year after the first 10 GGPP brought four podiums, two sprints and two to GP career. This year he is eighth the World Cup and his best results are a room repeated in Le Mans, Aragon and Assen, improving that he has experienced in recent weeks.

“This is not the beginning of the dream season. In the last four races we will come closer to the podium, at least giving a little war at the beginning of races and it is also important to morally because you think you are competing.”

Acosta appreciates his fourth place in the Netherlands Grand Prix, in Assen, where he completed “a good weekend with one of the best races of the year.” And it suffered the bite of a wasp that crossed his monkey’s pulse and was hit by a hospital for an allergic reaction, “but I was the last 15 laps.”

“Seeing that the podium is still away, you have to focus on giving 100% to us. Assen’s career is always, it’s good, fighting the Pecco on the podium until the tour 22-23, then let’s stay a bit. We should continue this line that trusts us and the project,” he said.

Always positive

“You need to see things from a positive outlook and see that we are approaching the podium, which is what we lack, but we are fighting facing each race 100 % and we have taken steps in that sense in recent great prizes,” Shark said.

In addition, he recalled that he had a contract with the KTM for the next campaign and did not hide his gratitude to the Austrian brand in the distance that in the last months had a certain regret because the motorcycle would not go to his liking.

“In this group they gave me the opportunity, we did a lot for them and for me and we continued ‘Palante’,” the pilot said at a meeting.

Fulfill the contract

Then in a ‘Banutazo’ with the media and the ‘LA 7 Sports’ statements that Acosta confirmed about whether he would fulfill his contract “no one can be sure, but eventually I have a contract, I think contracts will respect them, you have to continue forcing to be with, and they don’t want to be in the situation that they are, less than me.

“When you can’t control it, it’s harder to passimilate because these are things that even if you throw all the efforts into the world, don’t change. But it’s time to forget about it,” he lived.
