But Acosta himself was also very strong a🔯nd believes he’s getting closer to the top riders.

“There is still a way to go,” began Acosta. “Now I’m 0.6 behind [l🐻aughs]. They know how to go fast. I don’t know if [Marc] Marquez was struggling yesterday or if he was just easing in a bit. 

“But he was at the front tod♔ay making really good lap times. These guys kno💯w how to be fast and they are not stupid. 

“They know what th𒉰ey have to do, so it’s not a surprise. But I’m quite happy.

“We are riding faster than the old lap record. They were fast also, bℱut I’m happy because I still have a way tඣo go.”

Acosta has continued to gain speed, both in terms of race pace and qualifying trim🤪, throughout every day of testing at Sepan💮g.

Filled with expectation due to his success in Moto3 and Moto2, Ac🐼osta is seen as one of the best talents to enter MotoGP in a long time.

But the Spaniard is letting pressure phase him: “Pressure is only a woꦉrd. If you believe in that then you have that.

“I lived it for the last three years, everyday I had pressure. This෴ is now quite normal.

“But we cannot be focusing on the testing because Miller is 14, Marini 🃏18th, Rins 15th, Quartararo 11th, Binder 10th - these guys are going to be at the front in a race weekend.”

Speaking a bit ꦿmore about the situation within KTM, Acosta still sees Brad Binder as the rider to beat.

“Binder🍷 will be there! He👍 was fast. He made some mistakes but I put myself second now.

“He was fast and his pace was good. Yesterday he made 58.4s, for this he is number 1 still in 𒐪KTM at the moment.”
