The 19-year-old Spaniard is arguably the hottest property outside of the premier class, and is currently battling for the Moto2 title, riding for Red Bull KTM Ajo.

But his fast rise is 𓆉causing possible difficulties because KTM have made clear that they would prefer him to stay with Moto2 in 2024, then come to MotoGP in 2025.

But “it will be Acosta, and only Acosta, who decides his future” ac🔯cording to .

KTM are “waiting for Acosta to communicate what his int▨entions are”, report.

“If he has not changed his mind in recent weeks, his desire is very clear: to make the leap to 'first division'; winning or not winning the [🌳Moto2] title,” the report states.

KTM are obviously keen to keep Acosta, knowing how brℱilliantly prodigious he is, but they also don’t want to repeat the case of Raul Fernandez, who entered MotoGP with them amid tension.

KT꧑M also know that, if Acosta demands a MotoGP s𝕴eat next season, it spells the end for Augusto Fernandez, who is their only out-of-contract rider at the end of 2023.

They must decide whether Acosta’s potential outweighs the year of exp𒊎erien🎀ce that Fernandez has already accrued.

"It's a situation🃏 that disturbs me," Herve Poncharal, manager of Fernandez's GASGAS Tech3 ඣteam, said. 

"Augusto is doin🎃g his job as a rookie in MotoGP impeccably, flawlessly. 

“And when a driver does it like Augusto is doing, he des🐼erves the opཧportunity of a second year. 

“On the otheꦅr hand, Acosta is also doing well what he has to do, and I think he is ready to make the jump to MotoGP. It's a very difficul𝄹t situation."

If KTM opt to stick by Fernandez, they will lose the incredibly gifted Acost💛♒a to a rival manufacturer.

KTM have Jack Miller, Brad Binder and Pol Espargaro contracted until the end of 2024 - this is why they would prefer Acosta to wait unt♏il then before entering MotoGP.

But that big decision is not in their hands…
