• Jorge Martin: “Not a drama” as perfect podium ♏run 🌠ends at COTA 

• Maverick ౠVinales: ‘I didn’t have the weapon I have now’ at Yamaha and Suzuki

Acosta tried to stic💖k with the Aprilia man, but was unsuccessful as he later confirmed that no one had the chance of beating Vinales at COTA.

“No one in this world could catch him today,” said Acosta. “You onl꧃y have to see the pace [he had].

“Also, when I saw him yesterda🧔y and the pace he had in the sprint it was from another world.

“Today I tried and when he pa🤪ssed me I tried to block him. But today was really difficult and I spoke with him and he said that when he passed me I was trying to brake harder in the braking of turn 12. It was impossible to pass him. Today was not my d⛦ay.”

While it wasn’t victory for Acosta in Texas, the rookie is getting closer an🍎d closer as it appears a maiden win is just aro൲und the corner.

Even more impressive than his raw speed is that Acosta is making it look effort💮less as he admitted the limit of the bike has not been found thus far.

A♍costa stated: “We don’t know where the limit of the bike is at the minute. As you can see, we are 🐭not crashing a lot.

“For thiﷺs, it means we have a way to go. We are not really touching the setting of the bike. I have the same setting since the test in Valencia and we are just foꦬcusing on how I ride the bike.

“Sometimes I have these moments similar to the start in Moto2. Sometimes I am having some locking꧟ in the tyres that is a completely different mindset from Moto2 with the Dunlop compared to the Michelin in MotoGP.

“We are trying to focus more on myself than the bike and trying ꧅to find my level and limit.”

After the sprint on Saturday, where Acosta was beaten by Marc Marquez and Jorge Martin along 🧸with Vinales, the KTM star alluded to learning some secrets.

And Acosta was able to put what he learned into practice after managing the tyres more effi👍cient🃏ly.

“I was able to manage better the tyres,” bega🐷n Acosta. “Yesterday🌄 was completely a mess.

“When Jorge passed me I was going slower and slower. Also, Aleix was close to👍 passing me. In the grand prix I was trying to manage sector one and the long right at the⛎ end of the track.

“Regardi𓄧ng the braking, I was giving some space when I had someone on my left to try and overtake them on the exit.

“When 💃Jorge passed me [in the sprint] he blocked me a bit and maybe it cost me the chance to go with him in the back-straight.”
