Pedro Acosta recorded a failure to finish his first race in 2024 following a mistake he made at Garage Vert, he was between Fabio Di Giannantonio and Aleix Espargaro. The crash indicates that there are no MotoGP racers who always score points in the two Sprint races and the Grand Prix race. The French GP at LeMans is one of the most difficult for him in the opening 5 races this year even though everyone knows that LeMans is the home race for Tech3, the country where Acosta’s team is currently based.
“This is the first time I have prepared a motorbike to win. This morning we tried a different setup because we experienced vibrations previously and I felt strong. But I crashed, and I’m sorry,” said Acosta, who continued trying to explain what happened when he crashed. “There are Di Giannantonio and Aleix Espargaro on the left. They braked early, and to avoid a collision with Espargaro, I had to brake even harder.”
“It’s a shame, it really hurts me not to score points. I don’t know if it’s the circuit or me, but that’s how it is. We will try to do better at Barcelona.” He continued, he also did not escape the most popular question in the MotoGP paddock in recent weeks: predictions on who will be Pecco Bagnaia’s teammate on the factory Ducati team in 2025? And he had very clear ideas about this.
“I think the choice is easy. For the official factory team, I will choose a rider who is 40 points ahead in the championship, therefore, he is Jorge Martin,” And when asked again about the possibility of Marc Marquez taking the factory KTM seat if the Ducati factory seat is given to Martin, Acosta answered “I think no, because Brad Binder already has a contract. That might happen, but I remain calm.” the lid explained.
