I don't think Maverick gonna do well with KTM. Maverick's style is smooth.

I’m shocked about Maverick, apparently he left because of Jorge Martin joining next year. But he’ll have to deal with Acosta next year, who in my opinion will be much better.

He's emotional and he made a rash move. Too much pride. Aprilia would have been better off with Martin and Vinales, but if you gotta choose one, you go for Martin. I can't imagine Vinales putting together a run at the championship. He was fast at Mugello last year and nowhere this year.

@@ExpatonTwoWheelsMav already had told Aprilia to not count with him for next year a week before the Martin move. Rivola said in an interview that they were gonna take their time before renewing his contract but wanted to continue their relationship for 2025. Mav is emotional and never has gone for big money contracts, he turned down Honda this year already. KTM is going through a major restructure at the moment by hiring a bunch of Italians from Ducati and other key personal changes. Also, they have stopped promoting younger riders from their moto2 teams from here on out and focus on going after experience top riders which they have now, all race winners except for Acosta but I feel he's gonna get one this year. Another important factor for Maverick is that his old crew chief (Esteban Garcia) is at KTM and they will be reunited once more. KTM must have sold the project to Mav and he went for it since he felt valued/wanted. Something apparently did not feel with Aprilia when they were hesitant in renewing him, specially, after the dominant performance in COTA. Don't forget allllll the mechanical issues they have had all year with all 4 bikes. That gearbox failure was a dagger for him and I understand the lack of faith in the project. I do think he's gonna struggle at first and he is not known for consistency 😔 Just Hope him and the Beast can help KTM improve their 4 bikes and have more competition 😊 Like the videos, keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Maverick has pace but also inconsistency, much like Jack Miller. So look for much of the same when he's on the KTM.

It was just Maverick being Maverick. He's a child throwing a temper tantrum. He did it with the Yamaha and now he's doing it was a Aprilla because he wasn't informed about Jorge Martin. The guy is a decent rider from time to time but they shouldn't call him Batman. They should call him inconsistent man, he doesn't have the skill or the killer instinct to be a champion.

I thought Aprilia was more of a point and shoot too.

Opposite actually. The Aprilia is renowned for its handling.

Yeah, the Aprilia struggles on the straights and makes the lap on the edge of the tire.

Maverick, has never help with growing the performance of the bike any where he has been. The Yamaha go worse under his time there. He just did not want a rider in the box that would push him and Martin is that guy.

Maverick is little crywalk, everything needs to be perfectly perfect for him to be in top 3 and then he can maybe snach a win...Halfbaked rider who's gonna blame everything around him for his performance...One race will be bike fault, second weather, third tires, fourth someone on the grid, list can go on
