Dani Pedrosa didn’t hold back his praise for Pedro Acosta. The Red Bull KTM Factory Racing test rider and DAZN channel commentator spoke about the kid of the moment and the rookie’s ability to learn in MotoGP.
Speaking to DAZN, Pedrosa tried to convey how difficult it is to ride at the level that Pedro Acosta is riding, especially in his first year in the premier class.
– ‘It’s a priceless experience, because really spending those laps there, when you’ve had so few MotoGP races, gives you a busload of experience, it’s a crash course, everything that happens and he’s really absorbing everything at a speed that’s not normal. Normally, any rookie doesn’t absorb at this speed and it’s preparing him for this championship. At the moment he hasn’t made the rookie mistakes he normally does, so it’s all positive for him at the moment.
Dani Pedrosa also revealed that his professional colleague and former rival in MotoGP, Jorge Lorenzo, thought that Pedro Acosta would be capable of winning at Jerez: ‘ Well, let’s see, right now, in the first race, in the second race, Jorge Lorenzo said that he thought Pedro would be ready to win at Jerez’
