The 2021 Moto3 ch𒊎ampion now holds a 63-point Moto2 title advantagꦍe over Tony Arbolino with just three rounds remaining.

If Acosta can maintain a lead of at least 50🅺 points over Arbolino on Sunday, the future MotoGP rider will be crowned champion with ♓Qatar and Valencia still to go.

“It was good to spend a week off at home spending some time with the people of the team in Barcelona just having fun,” Acosta told MotoGP.com in Malaysia. “It's true that👍 we were competitive in Thailan🐠d and we have to be happy for this.

“At the end racing is𒀰 simple, if you make it simple,” he added𒀰.

“It’s true that now [winning the title is] easier than in Thailand, for this we have to be focu🃏sed, but it's true also tღhat Tony won here last year with quite a big superiority.

“So we have to be calm and understand if it's not here𒀰, we can go also to Qatar and Valencia.

“Becꦓause of this, it's not the mo🍨ment to get stressed. We are in a good moment.”

Arbolino won last year’s Malaysian Moto2 G🔯rand Prix by a massive 11 seconds over Alonso Lopez, with Red Bull KTM Ajo rider Acosta crashing on the opening lap, then again after rejoining the race.
