Pedro Acosta never cuts. The Murcian was already resounding when he valued his faithfulness with respect to KTM in MotoGP by stating that he is “the only one who is not interested in the money”, and continued in that line in the second part of the interview he offered to Speedweek.
In it, Mazarrón’s shark begins by making it clear that fame is not something that cares much. “The first thing I mean is that I am the new Pedro Acosta, not the new Marc Márquez,” he released, as he does in each interview when they put that definition. “The fact of continuing to live in Murcia is an advantage for me. Anyway, there everyone knows me. For these people I am a normal person. I have a very quiet life in Murcia; they do not see me as a MotoGP pilot,” he adds.

Pedro went to the last appointment of 2024, the Grand Prix of Solidarity, in Barcelona, with a Citröen 2CV, the popular and classic 2 horses. That car was not mine, but I like it, so I bought one, “he revealed. And to the question of whether a Ferrari has also bought he was blunt.” I have no interest in that, “he released. Acosta confessed that he is quite saver.” I don’t spend much, I almost never spend money on nonsense. I like motorcycles and spending my money on training, “he said.
Physical and mental preparation
KTM’s talks about how in winter improved in his physical and psychological state. “It is difficult to gain muscle at age 19. I also think I have improved mentally and now I am much quieter. I have someone by my side that helps me understand what is happening and how to face it,” he says. But he has no psychologist. “I respect them, but I don’t believe in that approach. Maybe I have the right person beside my side at the right time of my life. He knew exactly how I felt and how I could improve.” He said.
Relationship with Rossi
The two -time champion went to Ranch de Tavullia de Valentino Rossi in the first days of January, to run in ‘The 100 km of the champions’. It is also heard in the ‘Paddock’ to go to VR46, with a Ducati, it is one of its future options. Acosta talks about her deal with ’46’. “Our relationship was always good. My first season in the championship was his last. I run at his ranch every year. It’s fun, we have a good and open relationship,” he says.
Marc Márquez and Bagnaia
In the purely sports, the young Spanish gave his opinion on what in Ducati call his ‘Dream Team’ (dream team), with Marc Márquez and Pecco Bagnaia. “We should not put the crown to the king yet, a season is long. Many people also say they are a ‘Dream Team’. But in life there is no ‘Dream Team’, you can’t have two numbers 1 in the same box,” he concluded.
