Back to the future for Red Bull KTM in Czechia and at the circuit where the ‘orange’ celebrated its maiden MotoGP win in 2020; just four terms into their full-time tenure as part of the premier class pack. The Masaryk layout in Brno, featuring 5.4km and 14 corners, had been resurfaced and readied for MotoGP action for the first time in half a decade but inclement weather marked the first day of the grand prix with FP1 occurring on a damp and drying track, and then Practice taking place in full wet conditions in the wake of a heavy summer storm.
The 10-lap Sprint scorched around the scenic Brno inclines and with a vast crowd already in noisy spirits. Brad was typically competitive. The South African gained nine positions to be 10th as only six seconds split the entire top ten at Brno.
Brad Binder
19th in qualification, 10th in the Sprint:
“It was going to be tough after qualifying and starting from P19 but I got a good start and cut my way through a few guys. 10th from 19th means I cannot complain too much but it’s not where I want to be. The good thing is that I felt a lot better on the bike: we made some changes for the race, and it was a big improvement. Another good thing is that we had two of our guys on the podium, so now I can have a look at their data and learn quickly overnight!”
