Pedro Acosta Praises Francesco Bagnaia’s Sportsmanship at Aragon GP

Pedro Acosta praised the sporting behavior of Francesco Bagnaia after their fierce battle for third position at the Aragon MotoGP GP.

The low-grip conditions at Motorland circuit — proved beneficial for KTM’s RC16 motorcycle performance. Acosta and his teammates managed to compete in the top 10, ultimately finishing fourth in the main race.

“The fight was unbelievable, Pecco is a true gentleman,” stated Acosta.

“He is very clean on the track. Even when I tried to push him wide, he did the same to me at the last corner. I really enjoyed the battle with him!”

Acosta became the only rider to choose the hard front tire compound — a decision he believed was correct to address his previous braking issues.

Meanwhile, teammate Brad Binder experienced less fortune — crashing out while competing for a podium position. Nevertheless, he remained optimistic about his motorcycle’s performance development for upcoming races.
