For the second time in a row, Krugersdorp’s MotoGP sensation Brad Binder placed seventh, this time at the Hungarian grand prix.

According to the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team, this past weekend (August 22 to 24), Brad tweaked his KTM RC16 race set-up further for a proper front-end feel.

Despite technical issues, the team said he still managed to place among the Top 10.

Considering all things, Brad thought it was a pretty good race.

“I didn’t have the best of starts and had a small issue with the rear end locking, which stayed with me for the whole way. It was really difficult to manage that in the braking zones. Despite that, the overall package was working incredibly well, and I think we could have done much better. Still, seventh was a strong result.

“The last three races have probably been the best of the season so far. Things have started to roll and feel normal. I think we are in for a good second half of the year. Here, I was too slow on Friday, and then we missed out on Qualifying two and starting further back at this place was rough,” he explained.

Brad is currently 11th in the Championship Standings, and will race again on September 5 to 7 at the Monster Energy Grand Prix of Catalonia.
