Brad places P8 in Valencia Sprint Race

Posted November 15, 2025

The atmospheric ‘stadium-setting’ of the Ricardo Tormo circuit made a welcome return to MotoGP after a year away from the series. The 4km, largely flat layout is a very familiar track for the entire Grand Prix grid and provided 14 low-grip and winding corners as a stage for the 22nd fixture of the campaign.

Brad Binder missed out on Q2 direct entry by just 0.056 of a second and eventually qualified 15th.

Brad made a great start in the Sprint, and entered the top ten to finally secure P8 at the finish line.

The 2025 curtain-closer begins at 14.00 CET on Sunday for the last 27 laps of the season.

Brad Binder
15th in qualification, 8th in the Sprint:

“I really need to improve qualifying and get better in the one-lap time attacks! It’s what I’m missing at the moment. The pace wasn’t disgusting in the race; I could pass a few dudes and get forwards. I think tomorrow in the long race we’ll stand even more chance of passing a few more. That’s my goal: to make a strong finish for the 2025 season.”
