Pedro Acosta says he was surprised to encounter so many problems in Friday practice for the Italian Grand Prix after failing to secure a direct entry into Q2.
The factory KTM MotoGP rider lacked the speed to contend for a top 10 result in the afternoon, ending up almost half a second off the pace in 13th place. Having also struggled for speed in opening practice, Acosta’s day eventually ended with a trip across the gravel on his final flying lap.
