A legend is born: Pedro Acosta makes history in Jerez

Pedro Acosta has no roof. The Mazarrón rider continues to break records at a frenetic pace. At 16, he has become the first rider in history to achieve four consecutive podiums in his first four Moto3 races (second, first, first and first). In addition, with his victory in the Spanish Grand Prix, he has become the youngest of all time to win three races in a row, beating Maverick Viñales.This boy is a scandal, there is no one to stop him and he is on his way to beat all the records in the history of Moto3. Everyone surrenders to his enormous talent. In his first four races he has managed to score 95 of the 100 possible points, thanks to his second place in the first round of the year and three consecutive victories. Although this victory, in Jerez, has cost him more than the previous two. This circuit was not very good for him and he sweated to achieve a historic triumph. THE HISTORY MAKER! 🏆 With victory, @ 37_pedroacosta becomes the first rider in Grand Prix history to finish on the podium in his first four starts! 👏 # Moto3 | #SpanishGP 🇪🇸 pic.twitter.com/R209PqKXtl- MotoGP ™ 🏁 (@MotoGP) May 2, 2021Acosta had a scare in the last laps but he rebuilt and managed to return to the leading group with Jaume Masiá and Deniz Öncü. He signed up just in time for the final lap battle. The 16-year-old KTM rider held on and found the moment to overtake his two rivals and take first place. From then on, he held out as best as he could Masiá and Öncü’s onslaught to get the victory, although in the end his path was cleared with the fall of Öncü that took Masiá and Binder ahead in the last corner. Youngest champion Without having turned 17 and making his debut this season in Moto3, he is already the leader of the World Championship with two races ahead of the second, Niccolo Antonelli (44 points). There is still a lot of championship ahead but he has become the main favorite for the title and the rival to beat on the track. If he manages to be proclaimed Moto3 world champion before the Valencian Community Grand Prix (November 14), he would be the youngest rider in history to achieve it, beating Loris Capirossi, who achieved this precocity record at 17 years and five months. Is there anything @ 37_pedroacosta can’t do?!?! 💪 95 points from a possible 100, and 51 clear at the top of the championship! 🥇 # Moto3 | #SpanishGP 🇪🇸 pic.twitter.com/6apawkjMkv – MotoGP ™ 🏁 (@MotoGP) May 2, 2021 A legend has been born in Jerez.
