New twist in KTM line-up saga as Pedro Acosta plunges his future into doubt
KTM had a problem with having five riders but only four MotoGP bikes for 2024, as their request for a fifth bike was rejected. Moto2 rider Acosta was promised a promotion to MotoGP, which put the current four riders at risk of losing their seats. However, Acosta has now stated that he might have to stay in Moto2 for another year due to limited space. He expressed his preference for moving to MotoGP, but acknowledged that he may have to wait and see. The situation is complicated by the fact that his Moto2 team, Red Bull KTM Ajo, has already announced a new line-up for 2024. Acosta mentioned that there is no specific deadline for KTM’s decision, but it is expected before the end of the season. The idea of using one of the five riders in a reserve role has been suggested as a possible solution.
