Pedro Acosta continues to garner praise even before his debut season in MotoGP. The shakedown and the Sepang test further reinforced the feeling that he will be a rider to watch in 2024, and even his opponents were impressed.
Aleix Espargaró was one of them. The Aprilia rider spoke about the Red Bull GasGas Tech3 rookie in an interview with MotoGP.com. #41 stated:
– Pedro’s talent is amazing. Since he arrived in the championship he is doing extraordinary things. It was just his third time in Sepang, his second time in a MotoGP. Obviously he was riding a lot of days, but anyway on Thursday I was riding with him a couple of laps and when you see him riding, the lines he’s taking, it’s not rookie lines. It’s unbeliavable how fast he learns. So obviously he’ll be one to watch during the season.
