Pedrosa: "Barcelona will be difficult for Marquez, It's a harder track."

"What astounds me most is how he manages expectations. When he wins every race, he has to calm the pressure from the media that think he'll always win. For me, this aspect is astounding."

MotoGP: Pedrosa: "Barcelona will be difficult for Marquez, It's a harder track."

Marc Márquez continues to win and astound, on and off the track. Besides his superiority in the race, Dani Pedrosa praised his ability to manage expectations. Pedrosa also spoke about another Spanish rider on the rise: Pedro Acosta.

"There's nothing to say. It's impossible. He did everything, perfectly," Pedrosa said on DAZN. "What astounds me most is how he manages expectations. When he wins all the races, he has to calm the pressure of the media that think he'll always win. For me, this aspect is astounding."

Pedrosa also commented on the upcoming race in Montmeló - a circuit that Márquez defined as being difficult.  "I think it's more complicated for him. We might not see this difficulty from the outside, or he might overcome it, but it's undoubtedly a harder track for him."

On Acosta, Pedrosa added: "Marc still has something more. Maybe not immediately but, in race and tire management, yes. If Pedro had started in the front row, maybe he could've kept closer to him."
