In the Grand Prix of the Americas, Pedro Acosta got very little revenue. He added three points (achieved with his worthy seventh in the Sprint) to his poor particular account. That is, the KTM star left the Texan facilities with the slightest booty of what is going. In Thailand he took over four and in Argentina of nine. Consequently, the Mazarrón Shark goes 13 in the pilot general with only 16 units in his locker. A Birria if you realize that we are talking about a whole world champion, whose legitimate aspirations are to fight for the title. And it is that the ’37’ is located 71 points! of the leader Álex Márquez. Or the thing changes a lot or this year it will not be that of its consecration in the queen class of the World Motorcycle World.
However, the worst thing for Pedro was that he fell back into the long race (second accident of the year that leads him to a painful zero). After the conclusion of the race, the talented Murcian pilot launched a message addressed to the manufacturer MuTHofen. “We are in the same well as yesterday, in the end, it is not logical that after 10 curves, not 10 laps, 10 curves, have the same Locking (blocking) as the previous day and even worse. Having the temperatures well, the pressures … They have to understand what happens because this is not logical,” he proclaimed after losing control of his RC16 in Curve 1 when he marched in eighth position behind his partner Brad Binder.
He finds no logic
“The theme is difficult to understand, I have been Fabio (Quartarrao) and Fermín (Aldeguer) at the beginning of the race, and from one return to another the motorcycle has started working well. I have taken them, I spent them, the time that I have been taking Brad (Binder), the motorcycle was going well. But I have passed half a turn behind and I no longer saw how to stop the motorcycle. Front is so sensitive, it is what I do not find logic.
Why follow Marc Márquez
On what happened in the initial chaos before the long race in the level, Acosta was equally sincere: “When there was little for the exit and I saw Marc Márquez get out of the motorcycle, I knew that what he was doing made a meaning because it was an abnormal behavior in a pilot that has 12 years of motorcycle experience. We have all followed what Marc has done because it is the one that is the one that is the one that has the most experience in these situations.
