KTM tease “surprise” over Pedro Acosta’s 2024 seat

That’s because KTM team manager Francesco Guidotti is still keeping his cards very close to hi𝐆s chest.
“Acosta will remain a KTM rider,” he told .
“We had an option that w♑e could useಌ and clearly we did.
“It will be in🌟 MotoGP, but what team h🤪e will go to will be a surprise!”
KTM’s factory riders 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Brad Binder and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller are both contracted until the end of 2024 making it highly unlikely that either of them will be 🌟ousted.
Their satellite team, GASG🐲AS Tech3, looks the like𝓡liest option but there are still some moving parts.
Pol ꦇEspargaro is also 🌱contracted for 2024, but Augusto Fernandez is not.

Fernandez is the only KTM rider whose co🅘ntract expires at the end of this season, in theory making him the most at-risk from Acosta’s arrival.
But Espargaro has not yet raced in 2023 due to a crash on the opening Friday whi🎃ch left him with serious jaw, back and lung injuries. He hopes to return at Silvers♛tone on August 6.
There remains the♏ possibility that Espargaro, aged 32 and in his 10th M𒁃otoGP season, could opt to walk away and leave a vacancy for Acosta to fill.
Acosta, 19, has shone in Moto2 this season and demanded a graduation into the premier class, despite KTM’s initial pref🌞🐼erence for him to remain where he is.
