Tech3 GASGAS rider Acosta 🙈eventually finished in P9 after tyre wear issues.

But his skill and ma🌠turity shone throughout his first round as a premier class ri💟der.

He added abou🎃t his performance on Sunday: “At the pit stop I saw that Brad Binder and Jorge Martin were increasing the pa🌠ce, and I was behind them.

“That was important because, in the sprint, I was behind Alex, while [on Sunday] I was followin♎g riders like Martin and Marqu🗹ez who have a very different style.

“That’s something that makes a difference when you ride on slower circuits. On that pace I f♌elt better and I had more control.

“That’s why I tried to overtake especially in Turn 6 and 1♍6, where i♒t was more difficult.”

Acosta has laid down a marker thatไ he will upset many more experienced r♛iders before his rookie campaign is over.

He detailed th𝕴e difference between his first-ever shortened Saturday race: “Overtaking was more difficult than I expected in the♛ sprint, where we all had a smaller tank and the bike was much more responsive.

“It was moving more and everyone was faster.

“[On Sunday] with more weight, the bike was more stabඣle, and the tyres too.

I took ste🙈ps forward in terms of experience, and overtaking was easie𒉰r too.”
