“It was super tough. The toughest one of the whole season so far”, says rookie Pedro Acosta after the Catalunya sprint.
Acosta momentarily led after an overtake on Francesco Bagnaia on lap three, before leading again when Raul Fernandez crashed from first place at turn ten.Asked if he had fun during the 12-lap race, Acosta said: “Not the most. It was super tough. For sure, the toughest one of the whole season so far.
Acosta, who lost out to second spot on the final lap when Marc Marquez out-braked the rookie into turn one, admitted to overheating his front tyre when following Bagnaia and Brad Binder. “Then it was easy for the other guys to overtake you in turn one, then it was difficult to avoid sliding in turn five, it was quite tricky.”
Acosta began by saying: “I hope! The team is going to work but we don’t really know. The good thing is that we are getting closer.
