Acosta Thailand

The famine continues. Without realizing it, This is the fourth consecutive race that Pedro Acosta has not finished. ; we are in Thailand, and this period had started in Japan. It is a shame, because in terms of pure speed, he seems the only one who can interfere in the group of Ducati, who today occupied the first eight places of the Sprint. Qualifying seventh, Acosta was bitter, but can we really blame the rookie for pushing until he crashes? In any case, he is not gentle with himself. The learning process continues, but once he has set his sights, it will be very difficult to stop him.

Pedro Acosta did not see the finish line this Saturday in Buriram. As in Australia, or in Japan. Still injured, he still delivered a great battle against Jorge Martin. His defense held for a while, but was doomed to crack. “Overall the day went well… not counting this fall in Sprint. It was a mistake. We made a small change to the bike, and I had difficulty stopping it. I was a little off course as I came into the bend, and I fell. » he said after this umpteenth fall.

 

 

The Spanish genius must understand what is behind these mistakes, but he too must know the following adage: "It is easier to teach a pilot to fall less than to go fast." "We are losing a lot of time on the track, We absolutely need to understand how to avoid this. » he clarified.

Maybe he should calm down, and sometimes accept finishing a little further away? « I have to tell myself that being fifth is not so bad.. In the end, I'm still learning." he concluded. Next year, with the responsibility that comes with being a factory rider, Pedro Acosta will absolutely have to correct what he is lacking in this second part of the season. He will be all the more formidable.
