After a dramatic crash on the final lap of the Dutch Grand Prix at Assen, Spanish driver Pedro Acosta has shared his feelings of frustration and disappointment. " It hurts. I have already fallen in every possible corner,” he said, emphasizing the importance of not giving up and adapting better to the Michelin tires.
Peter Acosta spoke about the performance of its tires, its strategy of race in Assen, and the influence of the weather on its performance. “ Speaking of racing, the truth is that I think we had an even better race than we expected. We were at least able to be with Marc and Bastianini's group until the end, when we had the software drop. Maybe it's my fault too, I'm a little optimistic and I attack too hard."
The young GasGas driver analyzed the performance of his tires and the racing conditions. “ The tire was doing pretty well. It is true that we may have overheated it a little more than necessary, but it wasn't going bad. Being addicted to them and seeing what we could improve for the next races helped a lot. Too bad on the last lap. Di Giannantonio was a little far away and I had Brad three seconds behind. I think the wind has picked up a little more than at the beginning. The rubber got cold in the corner and it was a pretty stupid fall."

Acosta also compared Moto2 and MotoGP tires, highlighting the difference in behavior between the two. “ I don't know if it was because I didn't put as much pressure on the tire to do the five laps and it was a little warmer. Plus, coming from the Dunlop Moto2, which allowed a little more to do those silly tricks, Michelins are more critical or more sensitive to temperature changes."
The Spanish driver also commented on the competitiveness within the team Ducati and his personal need to improve. “ The ranking says who is currently Ducati's leader. Finally, we see that he has taken a step further, a step further than Martin. So we will also have to pull ourselves together. »
Peter Acosta remains committed to learning from this experience and continuing to progress. His detailed analysis of his tires' drop and performance underlines his commitment to constantly adapt and improve in the MotoGP championship.
