Pedro Acosta sat wa🧸iting to pounce behind Dennis Foggia and made his move on the final lap stick to take victory in the Moto3 German Grand Prix, round eight of the championship.

The Red Bull KTM Ajo rider steered clear of trouble for another Sunday comeback after starting thirteenth on 🦄the grid in a race peppered with crashes and penalties.

The teenager made his fin൩al push for the podium count. His fourth win in his rookie season came after he took his tighter line to hit the front at the start of the final lap and held firm to lead over the line by 0.130s⛄.

With tyre wear to contend with and a close fight for the win at the front, Acosta declared it his be🧸st victory to date. His championship points tally now sits at 145, an increased 55 clear of second placed Sergio Garcia.

Kaito Toba ran an aggressive race to keep in the lead g🍬roup, giving everything for CIP Power, the Japanese rider wobbled and bobbled about in the run to the final corner to take second, his first rostrum appearance this season.

Jeremy Alcoba’s move on the penultimate lap took Garcia out of contention. The move was deemed irresponsible and the Spaniard ordered to give up a position. Instead the Gresini rider made gains, moved into second brꦛiefly and crossed the line third.

Alcoba was inst♚ead demoted a place post-race, but initially refused to move, took the number three board and had photos with his team.

It was however long-term race leader Dennis Foꦬggia who would take to the podium, the highest placing Honda despite losing out for Leo🅰pard on track in the final few corners after a strong showing in the race.

ꩲAndrea Migno finished the race fifth for Rivacold Snipers, with Niccolo Antonelli (Avintia Esponsorama) promoted to sixth after further penalties were han⛦ded out after the chequered flag for track limits infringements.

The British rider rallied in the face of the upheaval in his part of the Petronas Sprinta garage but was hit with more bad luck when he was forced to ride around ♏the crash which saw Ryusei Yamanaka , Deniz Oncu, Stefano Nepa and Lorenzo Fellon all effected and sent Romano Fenati wide.

Elia Bartolini returns to sit🦂 in for Carlos Tatay at Avintia. He was twelfth 🀅in a race which only saw eighteen finishers after serving his own penalty for exceeding track limits.
