If there is a pilot currently in the paddock who has been leaving most fans and even the other pilots “shocked”, that someone is Pedro Acosta who achieved his first podium in MotoGP yesterday in only his second round. To achieve this result, the rookie overtook Brad Binder, who did not hesitate to praise him.
Speaking about the Red Bull GASGAS Tech3 rider, Binder did not hold back on the praise: ‘I tell you… when he overtook me, he was really going for it. He is very special and when you see him ride, you see how good he is, the way he controls the bike, how he exits corners and catches the bike, it’s class. I tip my hat to him, he deserves it’.
The #33 sees great potential in the 19-year-old pilot, and admits that he will help the manufacturer from Mattighofen grow: ‘I believe one of my biggest blessings as a pilot is that I have always had colleagues who have always pushed me, I have always had good colleagues and you can look at it as a blessing or a curse but it has always been good for me. I believe that together we can continue to push and try to move this project forward’.
