'A second great Moto2 season would not hurt some riders. Even Marc Marquez had a second one.' 💬 KTM boss Pit Beirer says the team may have rushed too many riders through to MotoGP too quickly.
The Austrian marque has enjoyed an embarrassment of riches in terms of the young talent it has been able to promote through the grand prix ranks over the years.In 2022, it fielded Brad Binder and Miguel Oliveira at its factory team – both of whom have come through the junior ranks with KTM – while the Tech3 satellite outfit had two rookies in Moto2 champion Remy Gardner and runner-up Raul Fernandez.
Augusto Fernandez is only on a one-year deal and is seemingly under pressure already from his former Moto2 team-mate and 2021 Moto3 champion Pedro Acosta, who is set for a MotoGP move with KTM as part “If you go into the MotoGP class you are under pressure,” Beirer said of Augusto Fernandez’s promotion.
“I think things went a bit too quick through the schooling: Rookies Cup, Moto3, Moto2 and these young talents went through these classes like rockets, but then MotoGP is another world.
