Chat between champions before the conference
Marc Marquez And Pedro Acosta they had the honor of sharing the MotoGP track for the first time in the first round of the 2024 championship of the MotoGP class which also saw them duel for fourth place at a certain point in the Grand Prix when the GasGas rider sank the blow to the on the inside of Turn-1, overtaking the Gresini driver before losing ground due to excessive wear of the rear tyre. Dorna he immediately placed the two seats next to each other also during the press conference on Thursday and before the usual routine of questions began the two compatriots had the opportunity to exchange a few words reconstructed by the newspaper todocircuito.
Marc Marquez broke the ice with Acosta and after an exchange about the number of cameras, the eight-time world champion asked the debutant if he still lived in his hometown, El Puerto de Mazarron: “Yes – Acosta replied – I tried to rent an apartment for a week in Andorra, but after two days I asked my father to come and save me because I was fed up. Then I had to feed myself, I was dying”. “Those two mountains 'eat' you, huh?” Marquez commented, with Acosta adding “I missed the beach”.
For fiscal reasons, many MotoGP riders reside in Andorra (including Aleix Espargarò and Fabio Quartararo) while Marc Marquez did not seek 'refuge' anywhere, remaining in Cervera. Acosta then asked Marquez how he was with the Ducati with the Gresini rider replying that compared to the Honda the change is notable and that little by little he will become familiar with the Desmosedici. Marquez then warned Acosta about the fact that aerodynamics greatly changes the behavior of the bikes when you find yourself fighting in a group.”
