Two points, and less than two-seconds, cost rookie 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pedro Acosta fifth place and top non-Ducati rider in the final 2024 MotoGP World Championship standings.

The GASGAS Tech3 rider began the final grand prix of the season with a two-point ad𝄹vantage over Red Bull KTM’s Brad Binder, despite retiring from the Sprint due to fairing damage from a lap one tangle with Marc Marquez.

It was the 13th tꦰime this season Acosta has failed tꦫo score, including his non-start in Australia.

But with Binder only 18th on the grid, and Acosta starting si✃xth, the 20-year-old was still favourite to achieve his go♌al of confirming fifth in the championship.

However, it was snatched away from h🔯im when Binder produced another ꦿimpressive charge to sixth, while Acosta faded to tenth with a braking issue.

“A difficult race and managing a problem with the brakes when you are riding at 350 km/h a💫re two different things,” said Acosta afterwards.

“I had no power in the brake. It was difficult to manage from lap one. The only thing was that in lap one I had grip in the rear, but when th𒁏is grip went away there was no f**king way to go fast.

“In lap 12, I was⛎🦹 made 40.8. That was not bad at all, and from one lap to the other one I go to 41.4, 41.6, 42s! I don’t even make [42s] in FP1.

“It is what it ܫis. Don't get me wrong, difficult to… understand why.

“I'm OK because looks like I'm not the only one ha🌟ving problems in the whole season, because Marc discussed many times about this. But this cannot be acceptable.”

It is not know🦩𒊎n if the brake issue was related to damage caused by Acosta's big warm-up accident.

A🉐costa may not have bee🔯n the top RC16 rider in the final standings, but he achieved the most KTM podiums (five) and laps in the race lead (13).

"It was a season with high and lows,💦 some really good re💛sults, and some frustrating moments with mistakes made, but it was a very positive season in general,” he said.

Acosta will now join Bi♑nder at the factory Red Bull KTM team from Tuesday’s Barcelona test.

“I am happy to start another๊ chapter, just next door though as I remain in the family, but I am leaving some people,” he said.

“From the first day I felt welcomed, the mechanics and everyone else around were good to me, so I will forever ha꧋ve in my heart my first season in M🧜otoGP with Tech3."

With team-mate Augusto Fernandez also departing, probably for a Yamaha test rid🔜ing rile, Tech3 will be running MotoGP race winners Maverick Vinales and Enea Bastianini next season.
