motogp : grosse frayeur pour l’espagnol pedro acosta, victime d’une chute spectaculaire

Pedro Acosta, lors du Grand Prix d’Espagne le 27 avril 2024

Une sortie de piste spectaculaire. Au Grand Prix d’Espagne de Jérez (Andalousie), le jeune Pedro Acosta a été victime d’une chute impressionnante lors du tour de chauffe. L’Espagnol de 19 ans a perdu l’équilibre au virage 7, avant de finir contre l’airfence (barrières pneumatiques) à grande vitesse.

Plus de peur que de mal, puisque l’Espagnol a pu repartir rapidement et n’a pas semblé être blessé, même si le drapeau rouge a tout de même été déployé par précaution. Le temps était clément dimanche matin, mais la piste restait humide en raison des précipitations de la veille.

Malgré cette chute, Acosta (KTM) va donc pouvoir participer à la course principale dimanche après-midi à 14 heures. Il s’élancera en dixième position et y visera une nouvelle place d’honneur, au lendemain de sa deuxième place au sprint derrière Jorge Martin.

Pour sa toute première saison en MotoGP, le rookie ibérique effectue un excellent début de saison et pointe à la deuxième place du classement général, juste derrière Martin mais devant le champion en titre Francesco Bagnaia.

Les deux Français, Fabio Quartararo (10e) et Johann Zarco (20e), sont bien plus loin. Mais le premier cité a tout de même réalisé une bonne performance lors de la course sprint, samedi, en arrachant la troisième place… avant d’écoper d’une pénalité de huit secondes à cause d’une pression de pneus trop basse et d’être rétrogradé au cinquième rang.
