Jack Miller Under Pressure from Pedro Acosta

RiderTua.com – Jack Miller is now under pressure, where his future is uncertain, maybe he will be ‘Rocade’ with Pedro Acosta… because KTM could promote Acosta to the official team starting next year’s MotoGP season. As a result, Jack Miller’s position is on the line… maybe he should look for a new manufacturer or look at SBK from now on?

The inaugural series of the 2024 MotoGP season has just started and transfer rumors are already spreading in the paddock and have become the talk of racing fans. Pedro Acosta’s arrival at KTM immediately shocked everyone and his promotion to the official team is expected to occur starting in 2025, before the rider bargaining begins. Who will suffer the consequences is Jack Miller, who is in his second year with the Austrian manufacturer, so far without achieving encouraging results.

Jack Miller Under Pressure from Pedro Acosta

So far only Pecco Bagnaia has signed a new contract, which automatically strengthens his position as defending MotoGP champion. Many predictions have been made regarding the rider market, but there is little certainty. However, the Australian KTM rider seems destined to leave the official KTM team, having never reached the standards of his teammate Brad Binder. It was inevitable that ‘JackAss’ would start to feel some pressure and the mistakes made in Qatar made the situation even more difficult.

The other side of the situation is Acosta, who was in the media spotlight in Qatar’s first series. His meteoric performance for a rookie, overtaking Marc Marquez, his determination to show himself as a rival, finishing ninth in his debut were all factors in his favor. There is already talk about Pedro Acosta could be Jack Miller’s replacement in the official KTM team. For the team from Austria, the young newcomer from Spain is considered a diamond, a protégé who must be retained at all costs. Just a few races were enough to secure his place in the official team. At that time Jack Miller had to look for a new MotoGP manufacturer and that was not an easy task…or did he go down to GasGas?
