KTM’s Pedro Acosta dominated afternoon practice at the Hungarian MotoGP
KTM MotoGP rider Pedro Acosta led Practice at the Hungarian Grand Prix, as Pecco Bagnaia failed to secure a place in Q2 after finishing 14th. Acosta took over top spot with just over half an hour remaining in the session, and would progressively improve the reference lap time to a 1m36.827s late on. That proved to be a crushing lap for the Spaniard, who was 0.413s clear of the field, with VR46 Ducati’s Fabio Di Giannantonio his nearest challenger. Marquez’s Ducati team-mate Pecco Bagnaia was knocked out of the top 10 in the dying stages and will face Q1 on Saturday. Acosta ended up the only KTM inside the top 10, some 1.1s clear of his nearest stablemate – Enea Bastianini in 15th. Bagnaia was ultimately 1.1s off the pace in 14th, while Gresini stand-in Iker Lecuona finished 17th.
