Pedro Acosta praised Francesco Bagnaia’s sportsmanship in their battle for third place at MotoGP’s Aragon Grand Prix. The low grip track at Motorland helped KTM showcase improvements in their RC16 bike, with Acosta and Binder performing well and threatening a podium finish. Despite finishing fourth in the main race, Acosta had a strong showing and enjoyed the intense battle with Bagnaia. Acosta’s choice of the hard front tyre compound proved to be the right decision, as it helped him avoid locking problems during the race. On the other hand, Brad Binder had a less successful day, retiring from the race after losing the front in Turn 3, but he remains positive about the team’s performance. Overall, both KTM riders showed promise at Aragon and aim to continue their competitive streak in future races.
