A crucial difference between 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta has been pointed out by Jorge Lorenzo.

Teenage starlet Acosta will burst onto the MotoGP scene next week at the season-opener in Qatar.

Al𒁃ready the Moto2 champion, he received widespread praise throughout the paddock for his preseason testing performance and is widely compared to Marquez.

Marquez won the MotoGP title in his rookie yea🔴r in 2013.

Two-time MotoGP champion Lorenzo sees the same magiꦰc in Acosta that a youn🧔g Marquez possessed.

“Yes, but he is different from Marc,” Lorenzo told🦋 .

“Marquez was a whirlwind of aggres🌼siveness and risk-taking.

“He wanted to win in all circumstances and at all cꦡosts.

“And he was never satisfied, even if he didn't feel good on the bike,𒁃 even ꧃if he didn't like the circuit, you had him there behind you, trying to pass you to beat you.

“But he fell a lot, he has always fallen a lot.

“In 2013 he had 20 [crashes] and won the title.

“In 2017ꩵ he had 26 and won. Marc has always fallen a lot.

“On the other hand, Acosta is a rider who does ♚not like to fall, more aware of the risk.

“He does things in a more controlleꦑd way, but so far, he has the same talen🔜t.

“He is similar, but dif♉ferent and the numbers are even bet🅰ter than Marc's.

“In principle he is the🍎 next star who is going to win in MotoGP. But watch out for Fermin Aldeguer.”

Although Aldeguer will remain in Moto2 for 2024, ღDucati MotoGP chiefs have already admitted their interest in acquiring him for next year.

But Acosta will arrive into ܫthe premier class immediately and has caused a ไstir in Sepang and Qatar during testing.

But to equal Marquez's feats in MotoGP is an almighty a🦋sk.

Marquez, then-Moto2 champion, won the MotoGP title in six of his first seven seasons in the pඣremier cl𓂃ass.

And, this year, he returns with renewed hope on a 💜Ducati hoping to arrest the slide ꦏof the past three years.
