Binder tests new chassis | News Article
Brad Binder - MotoGP

South Africa’s Brad Binder as his Red Bull KTM team will be hoping for a change in fortunes this weekend when they take to the track in Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in Misano.


In the last few races on the MotoGP circuit, the team has been struggling somewhat, and he Binder and his teammate, Pol Espargaró, have both had upgrades to their bikes.

Both riders have been testing a new chassis, and Binder says that all has gone well thus far.

“It was good and it was nice to try a different one. It’s the first time I’ve actually tried a different chassis.

“In general it’s nothing too serious. I just played a little bit with the balances, springs, and all of that kind of stuff.

“I definitely feel like we’ve made a good step.

“I’m still very far from where I want to be. I would like to be a lot stronger than I am at the moment, but we’ll get there.”

Sunday’s Grand Prix in Misano gets underway at 14:00.
