Pedro Acosta’s performances are whetting various appetites. This time, it was Brad Binder who praised the young GasGas rider.
‘He is riding incredibly well. You see the data and things, he brakes incredibly smoothly, clean, for the bike, he is quite clean with his riding. He is fast. I think we all know: he has a lot of talent, he works hard and rides very well. He will definitely be good in MotoGP,’ highlighted the South African from Red Bull KTM.
He is another rival for Binder, who does not feel his task made more difficult by Acosta’s arrival: ‘To be honest, it doesn’t change my life. I do my best, there are 21 more riders who are also very fast. So, it is what it is’.
When all is said and done, Acosta left Sepang with the ninth best time, thanks to the 1m57.365s he recorded.
