With 183 points, he is in second place in the standings, just 1 point behind the new leader.

Acosta was cleared by the medical team to return to competition in Austria. After regaining his feeling on the bike, the Red Bull KTM Ajo rider started the race from the second row of the grid. Acosta was in the podium positions for much of the race and fought for third place until the final corner, achieving a noteworthy fourth. He is currently 10th in the overall standings with 88 points.

37 AUGUSTO FERNANDEZ
“I am really looking forward to this Grand Prix. Misano is a circuit that I like and where I have achieved good results in the past. We continue with the same approach that we have followed so far. The goal is to fight for the win on Sunday and get good points for the World Championship. We arrive strong and we can have a good weekend there.”

51 PEDRO ACOSTA
“I feel fitter now. Misano is a very physical circuit and new to me with a Moto2 bike, so I have no expectations. We continue to take small but firm steps. We must continue with the good work that we have been carrying out since the end of the first half of the year. It could be a good circuit for us, but we have to continue working as we have done up to now.”
