Tech3 MotoGP team “had a lot of pressure” to support Pedro Acosta’s rookie season

“I didn’t know if I would be at that level…”

Tech3 MotoGP team boss Herve Poncharal admits he felt “a lot of pressure on myself” to provide “special support” to Pedro Acosta for his rookie season in 2024.

Acosta reached the podium for the first time in just his second race and has amassed three grand prix rostrums so far while sitting sixth in the standings.While expectations were high for Acosta’s debut year in MotoGP, Poncharal admits this brought with it a lot of pressure as he knew the Spaniard “was not going to come to be doing a rookie season like everyone expects”.

“And I like to be in the unknown; deja vu is not interesting. We had a great day in Valencia following the last race of 2023 and I was quite happy with our team, with the way we welcomed him, the way we gave him support.
