Pedro Acosta was the fastest in practice at the Austrian GP - Can anyone beat him to pole position in qualifying?

Each piece on Marcs psychological chessboard is named after each rider on the grid & he keeps he keeps moving them around as he pleases with the headgames that he plays. It is Acostas turn to be the recipient of these games this weekend & nobody plays psycho chess better than Marc Marc Karpov.... a master player 😜

If anyone noticed, Acosta has been normally very rapid in Austria always. I think Martin and Marc will sit up and take notice on saturday. Everone seemed preoccupied with things other than Pedro on friday. He'll have company soon up top.

I am praying that he wins. But....this is just FP1, and we have a broken thumb, arm pump, lack of confidence, and a 7 time world champion to get over on.

Agreed. With everyone else's problems going on this seems to be the perfect weekend for Acosta. Marc should defend and not attack this weekend, especially against Acosta. Marc knows Acosta won't fold under pressure like Bezzechi.

This weekend might be the one - I think Acosta is going to win his first race. And he's going to do it after securing pole tomorrow!

Provided KTM can give him a bike that won't randomly die on him. He should have already won a race by now, but that bike has a weird way of messing up at the wrong time. Fingers crossed he gets his first one. 😬
