Finally, the official announcement. Acosta showed unstoppable speed at KTM, but speaking as someone who's watched this on the ground, just imagining what happens when that talent gets Ducati's best machine gives me chills. Sharing a garage with Marquez is thrilling in itself. Neither of these two holds anything back — data and racing lines alike are going to spark between them.
