Such is the talent of Moto2 standout Acosta, KT🐬M have promised him a seat in the premier class next year even though they were happy with their four contracted riders.

How the manufacturer can keep Jack Miller,༺ Brad Binder, Pol Espargaro and Augusto Fernandez happy remains to be seen - but it’s certain that want to please Acosta.

The 19-year-old Spaniard can even le൲﷽an on the wisdom of Pedrosa - MotoGP’s best-ever rider without a championship and now KTM’s test rider who shone last week as a wildcard in Misano.

“We are very happy 🔜that Pedro is moving up to MotoGP,” Pedrosa told . ꦅ;

“He is showing that he is going very strong and let's hope that this year ends as it should. There is still half a season lef🎃t and he has to▨ focus on finishing well this year. “All KTM members will try to help him with everything he needs.”

Acosta had previously been complimentary - alongside most of the MotoGP grid last weekend -♌ about Pedrosa’s e♔nduring brilliance.

“Of course it is a good compliment on your part and shows that you are a pers🍎on who tries to focus and wants to do things well in the future,” Pedrosa reacted. 

“He is already trying to see how he will do next ♕year, which shows a lot of intelligence on his part.”

There will be enormous pressure on Acosta next year given the hype 🐈for his rookie season.

“He will surely notice the media change, because the categories below MotoGP are something very different.✨ There is a lot more media attention on MotoGP,” Pedrosa s🃏aid.

“And being 𒈔a rider who generates so many 🏅expectations due to his quality and results, there will surely be expectation and he will attract many fans who will get hooked on TV in the first race. 

“Chances of doing it well? I don't know, because many thing🃏s can happen, but it is very 🍨valid to adapt quickly as he already demonstrated in Moto3.”

Is Acosta special?

“Because of what he is demonstrating, yes, but you don't have to put any pressure on him,” 𓆉Pedrosa said.

A key ques🔯tion for KTM is whether to put him in their factory or satellite t🍌eam.

“In our case, both teams are very good and either of them will haꦕve very good support,” Pedrosa said.

“That's no problem. Maybe there is a determining point that can be more mental, knowing that you are in thܫe first or second team, but on a technical level both teams are very good.”
