Brad Binder’s Malaysian MotoGP came to an end when he crashed out at the midway stage of Sunday’s race.
Red Bull KTM rider Brad Binder revealed that he had been dealing with a frightening braking issue throughout the race. He explained that he would brake earlier than his competitors and it felt like he was speeding up while they were stopping in front of him. The problem was that the rear of his RC16 bike was not slowing down, forcing him to rely heavily on the front brake. This led to massive locking on the front and made it difficult for him to pass other riders, almost causing collisions. Despite trying to manage the issue, he ultimately crashed. Binder said that the engine braking was not working as well as desired during practice on Saturday, but they tried different things and it seemed fine during warm-up. However, when the track temperature increased, the problem resurfaced. Overall, it was a valuable learning experience for the team and they now have a better idea of how to address the issue in changing conditions. Teammate Jack Miller finished as the top KTM rider, in eighth place.
