A rider who knows all about immediate success as a rookie is two-time Worl🍸dSBK champion Alvaro Bautista.

The Ducati rider moved from MotoGP to WorldSBK in 2019 anꩲd fought for the title after winning 16 races - 11 in a row to begin t♊he season.

Speaking to , Bautista was asked about Acosta’s rise and what to expect going forward, saying: “Let's see, we have to wait. He will have to pick up theꦫ pace and the way of riding the MotoGP more.

“But if in the seꦗcond race he reaches a level like that, what he🐬 has is a lot of room for improvement.

“I don♏'t know if he will continue with his style and adapt the bike or he will adapt to what the others do. But he is new blood, he can create a new trend.

“And riders with𒈔 character, with talent, wi🔴th personality, are like that: they arrive and create a trend.

“🌄Valentino [Rossi] created a trend, [Jorge] Lorenzo another, Marc [Marquezಌ] created another trend, now Acosta arrives and sets a trend. There is a before and after."

🥂Bautista also touched on Marquez and how the eight-time world champion has adapted to Ducati machi🅰nery.

Marquez has bee𝔉n very impressive so far in 2024 and was a consistent podium threat in both Qatar and Portimao.

“I d🌠idn't doubt Marc,” said Bautista. “Because when a rider is good, but he has gone through difficult times when he hasn't been comfortable with the bike, and they give him a bike that works and with which he feels comfortable, it's easy to take that step.

“But now comes the difficult part, which is 💦t𝓡aking the baby steps. 

“In Qatar I saw him calmer than Marc is. Already in Portimao I saw him risking a little more, risking a little more, going more to the limit☂.

“But I think he's doing well. He no longer destroys himse♊lf, he a♓lready wins by a little bit.”
