Peter Acosta

Pedro Acosta is the name that rises above the fray of Grand Prix drivers who must think about their future. In the case of the 17-year-old Spaniard, the situation is such that it is others who think about it for him. His precocity, for which he almost apologizes, upsets all the plans of managers and other team directors. MotoGP is already calling for him and if he achieves the feat of being titled in Moto2 as a rookie one year after being crowned in Moto3 as a beginner, it will be difficult to stop him...

The scenario would be unprecedented. A real historic event that the new DAZN commentator on the Grands Prix Jorge Lorenzo emphatically points out: “ in Moto2, what Pedro Acosta is doing is incredible. If he manages to win this year as a rookie, he will be the first in history to do this rookie double in both categories. I think he can do it perfectly ».

However, the season has not yet been launched and it will not be launched until this weekend at Qatar. But Por Fuera observed the off-season tests and did not fail to note the times of the young prodigy already at the record Portimao. " The test was fantastic, I had one of my best preseasons “, declared the rookie from Mazarron after the tests. “ I still have to adapt completely, but I'm happy and I'm going to Qatar with a smile ».

Peter Acosta will therefore be one of the attractions of this opening of hostilities in Losail which will take place this Friday. Rough diamond from a box KTM which already seems too narrow for him, the Spaniard would already be the key element of a major project Red Bull which would place it in 2023 in MotoGP in Honda next to Marc Marquez in the event of a sensational consecration in the intermediate category. Otherwise, it will be for 2024.
