That’s because KTM team manager Francesco Guidotti is ꦇstill keeping his cards very close to his chest.

“Acosta will remain a KTM rider,” he told .

“We had an option that ಞwe could use and clearly we didꦛ.

“It will be in MotoGP, but what team he ဣwill go to will be a sur🐬prise!”

KTM’s factory riders 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller are both contracted until the end of 2024 making it highly unlikely that either o🌊f them w𝓀ill be ousted.

Their satellite team, GASGAS Tech3, looks the likeliest option but there are still some movinꦅg parts.

Pol Espargaro is also contracted 💜for 2024, but Augusto Fernandez is not.

Fernandez is the only KTM rider whose contract 🧔expires at the end of this season, in theory making him the most at-risk from Acosta’s🌠 arrival.

But Espargaro has not yet raced in 2023 due to a crash on the opening Friday which left him with serious jaw, back and ♍lung injuries. He hopes to return at Silverstone on August 6.

There remains the possibility that Espargaro, agedꦅ 32 and in his 10th MotoGP season, could opt to walk away and leave a vacancy for Acosta to ✤fill.

Acosta, 19, has shone in Moto2 this season and demanded a graduation 𒐪into the premier class, despite KTM’s initial preference for him to remain where he is.
