“I will bet on Dani because he is quite small and for sure if he is close he can start to punch, and when you are quite tall it’s quite difficult to move!” replied MotoGP rookie Acosta, adding: 

“And also Jorge is not in his best physical moment let'🐎s say! But anyway, he is training. I saw the video. [But] I will [bet] on Dani.”

Reigning MotoGP champion Bagnaia was r💧eluctant to be dr🅷awn in but seemed to suggest that Lorenzo could have the upper hand because “Weight is weight!

“I don't know, it's difficult to answer becau🦩se…. Difficult to answer!”
