Pedro Acosta's world championship career has been meteoric. He made his debut in Moto3 in 2021 and won the title at his first attempt. Graduation to Moto2 followed in 2022 and, although he needed one season to get the hang of the category, he dominated in his second attempt in 2023. Seven wins and 14 podiums out of a possible 20 underlined his growing status as a prodigal talent.
In 2024, with just three years in the paddock, Acosta is the only rookie in MotoGP this year. But he needed just three races to prove he had the level to be in the top class.
