Former KTMꦏ boss speaks out about P♊edro Acosta dilemma

KTM’s former team boss has warned them against keeping 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta “at all costs”.
The future of the talented Acosta is intriguing every manufacturer in the MotoGP paddock.
Ducati, Honda and Yamaha have all been mentioned as suitors although Acosta still remains committed to KTM.
Valentino Rossi spoke about Acosta for the f🌌irst ti💟me at this weekend’s Qatar MotoGP amid 🌊links to his VR46 team.
VR46 could theoretically put Acosta on a factory-spec Ducati, the best bike in MotoGP.
The rumours have ramped up♌ after KTM’s difficult start to the 2025 season, with their🐷 status as Ducati’s closest challengers long gone.
Ex-KTM boss considers Pedro Acosta's MotoGP future

“He mꩲight even think, after 🍎doing so much together, that he doesn’t want it to be his limit.
“Kind of like Honda did with Marc, keeping a rider at all costs 🐻can be bad publicity.
“If he crashes in every race, heౠ’s not happy, he can’t talk bad about the bike but he can’t talk good about it either. It’s not a good situation.”
Marquez’s situation ended with an alliance with Ducati which has ไrestored him to the front of the MotoGP grid.
The lure of the top machinery in the sport coul𓆉d be difficult for any rider to turn down.
There have been murmurs that Acosta’s insistence about not 🧜chasing money is a subtle hint to attract D༺ucati, not Honda.
“In my opinion his manager is already working to put him💮 in a position to get out of that ❀quagmire,” Guidotti said.
“The terms of the contract could also ꧑provide for an e🃏xit, we’ll see.
“In the next couple of months there will definitely be something at the compan😼y level for KTM and that’s what could unlock the situation.
“There could be a chance for Pedro, and he certainly won’t lack the opp⛎ortunities.
“He is a guy who has shown he can stay up front and it is a shame for the 🦄show not to have him.
“However he is young, he has time, but to do two years of purgatory, for a ride﷽r who has wo🅠n two world championships in three years, is a shame. You clip his wings.”
