Marc Marquez Foresees Pedro Acosta’s Rise to Prominence in MotoGP”
The world of MotoGP is witnessing tremendous growth as promises emerge, and Pedro Acosta and Marc Márquez, the sport’s well-known icon, predict that young talent will soon be in the spotlight.
During pre-season motorcycle testing, KTM rider Pedro Acosta showed that his move to the premier category was not only quick, but also impressive. As Moto3 World Champion in his first season and Moto2 Champion in only his second year, Acosta now takes on the MotoGP challenge with outstanding ability.
Marc Marquez, who won the MotoGP championship in his first season in 2013, expressed his confidence in Acosta’s abilities. In an interview with MotoGP.com, Marquez said: “Pedro will be one of the players this season. He has everything to be a big name in MotoGP.”
Marquez’s words not only reflect his impressive journey, but also confirm the trust placed in Acosta by those who know the MotoGP world deeply. During pre-season testing, the KTM rider showed exceptional maturity and performance, challenging the traditional idea of a rookie.
Acosta, on the other hand, responded modestly to the praise, remaining cautious about expectations. “It’s always good to hear these things, but we have to wait and see and find out where we can be this MotoGP weekend,” he told MotoGP.com.
The anticipation surrounding Pedro Acosta is evident not only in Marquez’s words, but also in the positive comments from other experienced riders such as Francisco Bagnaia and Aleix Espargaro. Bagnaia stated that Acosta would fight for the top ten and stressed the importance of allowing the young man to enjoy the process.
As he waits for the MotoGP season to start, Acosta reflects on his journey so far, dealing with pressure since he was 16 years old. He is aware of the pressure but emphasizes his maturity in dealing with expectations: “For the past three years, I have lived every day with pressure. Imagine a 16-year-old boy coming to the KTM factory team to win. There is definitely pressure. But I deal with it better than “I was on it in my first season in Moto3.”
As the MotoGP season begins, the eyes of the world will be on Pedro Acosta, to see if he can turn his early success in the lower classes into an outstanding performance in the challenging MotoGP scene. The excitement surrounding this young talent is palpable, and Marc Marquez’s optimistic predictions heighten the anticipation for what’s to come.
