Pedro Acosta “numbers better than Marc Marquez’s” - but there’s a key difference
“Marc Marqꩲuez was a whirlwind of aggressiveness" but Pedro Acosta has different traits, says Jorge Loren🧸zo

A crucial difference between 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta has been pointed out by Jorge Lorenzo.
Teenage starlet Acosta will burst onto the MotoGP scene next week at the season-opener in Qatar.
Already the Moto2 champion, he received widespread praise throughout the paddock for his൩ preseason testing performance and is widely compared to Marquez.
Marqueꦰz wonꦓ the MotoGP title in his rookie year in 2013.
Two-time MotoGP champion Lorenzo sees the same magic in Acosta that a young Ma🅺rquez possessed.
“Yes, but he is differentᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ from Marc,” Lorenzo told .
“Marq♈uez was a whirlwind of aggressiveness and risk-taking.
“🐼ꦬHe wanted to win in all circumstances and at all costs.

“And he was never satisfied, even if he didn't f🍃eel good on the bike, even if he didn't li🗹ke the circuit, you had him there behind you, trying to pass you to beat you.
“But he fell a lot, he has always fallen a lot.
“In 2013 he had 20 [crashes] and won the title.
“I🐼n 2017 he had 26 and won. Marc has al🐠ways fallen a lot.
“On the other hand, Acosta is a rider who does not like to fall, more aware 🗹of the ri༒sk.
“He d🌞oes things in a more contꦛrolled way, but so far, he has the same talent.
“He is sꦜimilar, but di🥃fferent and the numbers are even better than Marc's.
“In principl💞e he is the next star who is going to win in MotoGP. But watch out for Fermin Aldeguer.”
Although Aldeguer will remain in Moto2 for 2024, Ducati MotoGP chiefs have already admitted their interest in acq🍨uiring him for next year.
But Acosta will arrive into the premier class immediately and has caus🍃ed a stir in Sepang and Qatar duri♓ng testing.
ꦇBut to equal Marquez's feats in MotoGP is an almighty ask.
Marquez, then-Moto2 champion, won the MotoGP title in six of his fi♏rst seven seasons𝓡 in the premier class.
And, this year, he returns with renewed hope on a Ducati hoping to arrest the slide♛ of the pas⭕t three years.
