Tech3 rider Maverick Vinales has stated that KTM did not even inform him about the Pirelli 850cc test in Brno, adding that if he is not included in their lineup next season, the Austrian manufacturer will be solely responsible.
Ducati has announced the signing of 22-year-old Pedro Acosta to a contract valid until the end of 2028. The Spanish rider will join Marc Marquez in the Ducati Lenovo Team lineup.
Pedro Acosta retired from the Brno MotoGP race on the final lap due to a technical issue. The Spanish rider has demanded an explanation from KTM regarding the reliability concerns.
Pedro Acosta, whose move to Ducati in 2027 is now confirmed, has not closed the door on an offer to test KTM's new 850cc prototype. The Spanish rider stated that he would be willing to test if given the opportunity and if the team wanted him to.
