Brad Binder says the addition of sprint races at every MotoGP event ‘takes its toll, but it’s what I enjoy’.
Last season, Binder spoke highly about the addition of sprint races in MotoGP, despite acknowledging the increased demands they brought. He won two races in 2023 in the new sprint format and found them to be more physically demanding than the main races. He enjoyed the attacking nature of the sprints and pushing the limit. While many riders expressed concerns about the intensity of the calendar, Binder had a different attitude and saw his constant presence in Europe as an opportunity to race and perform well. Despite the toll it takes, Binder enjoys racing and is looking forward to a potential increase in the number of races in the future.
