Brad lines up fifteenth for the #PortugueseGP

KTM returned to one of the sites of their three 2020 Grand Prix victories for the third round of the 2021 campaign and it was home hero Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s lines up fifteenth on the grid for tomorrow’s race.

Brad was close to pushing through to Q1 but a small mistake ruined his best flying lap effort. The South African had initially marked the quickest time through the first sector. He will eye the start lights from the fifth row and has Tech3 KTM Factory Racing’s Danilo Petrucci (18th) and Iker Lecuona (19th) behind him.

The 25 lap MotoGP race begins at 14.00 CET tomorrow and directly after the Moto3 Grand Prix.

Brad Binder:
“A little bit tough today. I would have liked to have been stronger than we were. I didn’t do a fantastic job with my riding either. It was difficult to do a really fast lap-time. In FP4 I was more comfortable so I’m excited for the race tomorrow I think we can do a good job, a solid job. I’m looking forward to a good fight and winning a lot of positions.”
