Pedro Acosta’s reward: A KTM MotoGP debut at Jerez
Acosta will join factory test rider and 31-time MotoGP race winner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Dani Pedrosa at the Spanish track during a private💧 test next Monday, according to Marca.com.
KTM has told mahbx.com that Acosta's MotoGP outing will involve ‘just a few laps’ and is a ✅‘reward’ from motorsport director Pit Beirer for victory in the Valencia Moto2 season final🗹e.
ไThat race also saw team-mate Augusto Fernandez clinch the world title with second place.
After making histo𒅌ry as the first rookie to win the Moto3 title last season, Acosta remained with Red Bull KTM Ajo for the step up to Moto2.
Although fast from winter testing, incidents an♑d penalties meant Acosta h💜adn’t finished in the top six prior to a debut Moto2 victory at round 8, in Mugello.
A further podium followed i🀅n Germany before the 18-year-old's season was interrupted by a fractured left femur in🌳 a motocross training accident.
Acosta was soon up to speed upon his return in Austria (4th) and went on to win two more rounds, at Aragon and then Valencia, to claim fifth overall in the�💃� world championship and top rookie.
Tipped as a future MotoGP star since his debut grand prix season, Acosta will remain at the KTM-backed Ajo team in Moto2 next year, when Fernandez moves up to the premier-class with Tech3 GASGAS and is r🌺eplaced by Albert Arenas.
KTM’s private Jerez test follows on from Aprilia and Ducati taking to the Span♑ish Grand Prix venue earlier this week.
Pet♒er has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of 🌳the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
