MotoGP Japanese GP: Binder tops FP2, Marquez and Quartararo crash
KTM debuted its new carbon fibre chassis at the San Marino GP, and now it has brought it to Japan for factory riders Brad Binder and Jack Miller. The new chassis provides better rear grip on the RC16, which helped Binder set the fastest time in the second practice session, beating Jorge Lorenzo’s lap record from 2015. In the qualifying session, both Fabio Quartararo and Marc Marquez crashed, leaving them outside of the top 10. Maverick Vinales initially set the pace, but Binder eventually took the top spot with a time of 1m43.489s. Francesco Bagnaia came in second, and Aleix Espargaro finished third.
