168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta looked anything but a rookie during MotoGP pre-se𝓡ason testing, with the𓆏 KTM rider especially strong in race trim.

A Moto3 world champion as a rookie and Moto2 champion in just his second seaso🐈n, Acosta’s rise to MotoGP has 🉐been extremely quick. 

At times feel๊ing under pressure to perform, Acosta has loo🦄ked very calm on a MotoGP bike.

And Marquez, who became MotoGP champion as a rookie in 2013, expects Acosta to join the fight at the front: “Pedro will be one of the guys this season,” Marquez told Mo💎toGP.com.

“He has everything to be a big name in MotoGP.”

Marquez wasn’t the only rider to heap praise on Acosta♛, with Francesco Bagnaia and Aleix Espargaro doing the same.

“He will fight for the top ten, for sure,” added Bagnaia. “It’s too soo🌼n and he’s too young to put pressure on him. Let’s see him enjoy it.”

E🃏🌄spargaro said: “Obviously he will be one to watch this season.”

Acosta responded to the praise but said waiting to understand their potential is the first o🅠bjectiv꧒e.

A🅠costa told MotoGP.com: “It’s always nice to listen to these things, but we have to wait to see the reality and wait to see where we can be in a MotoGP weekend.

“The new format with the first QP on Friday, also with the qualifꦚying and sprint race on Saturday is going to be a question mark. Anyway, we will try☂ to be ready.

“The last three years I have been living with pressure every day. Imagine a guy that’s 16 years old arriving at the factory KTM team t🌠o win.

“It’s three years of his life focusing on just winning. For sure, there is pressure but I am ma🙈naging better than my first season in Moto3.

“In Moto2 I got a lot of pressure from myself and it was my fault for putting all this pressure on myself. But it’s ಞbetter now and I just keep it down.”
