Jorge Martinez, who presides over the destiny of his Aspar teams in Moto3 and Moto2, recently wearing the colors of GASGAS, ensures that the two big stars of tomorrow in MotoGP are already clearly identified. They will even meet again in 2023 in a Moto2 season which promises to be high-level. For the Spaniard, these are his young compatriots Pedro Acosta and Izan Guevara. It is certain: they will be talked about more and more, until they reach the supreme category where they should be the symbol of a passing of the baton between two generations...
Jorge Aspar Martinez spoke about the status of the two great hopes of Spanish motorcycling which are Peter Acosta et Izan Guevara. And the least we can say is that he is not too worried about the rest of their careers... On the one he knows the most, because he has him in his ranks, either the Moto3 World Champion Izan Guevara, he comments during the show Cuatro Tiempos on DAZN: “ he is a very talented pilot. I have rarely seen a pilot do it so naturally and so easily, and, above all, he no longer falls. He follows his path ". A road that Ducati would already like to stake out his clan, by his own admission Gigi Dall'Igna.
However, should we consider the said Guevara as already a candidate for the title in Moto2, for his first appearance in this peloton? Jorge Martinez does not go that far, and even less so since he has another favorite for 2023 in this category... It is Peter Acosta.
Jorge Martínez: “ going from Moto2 to MotoGP and being fast is very easy. But going from Moto3 to Moto2, not so much«
After dominating the Moto3 World Championship in its debut season in 2021, Peter Acosta had high expectations in 2022 when he arrived at the Moto2 World Championship. The adaptation took time and was conditioned by an injury. However, the results showed: he placed fifth in the championship, as the best debutant, taking three wins and two further podiums during his campaign, leaving much to promise for next season.
Jorge Martinez Aspar have no doubt that Red Bull KTM rider Ajo will be the benchmark to beat in the intermediate category this year. We read of him on motorcyclesports : " Acosta is undoubtedly a driver who will compete for the title. Going from Moto2 to MotoGP and being fast is very easy. But going from Moto3 to Moto2, not so much. Acosta's season has been spectacular and he will be the driver to beat in 2023 » he finishes.
