Brad Binder Does It Again. Fifth International Victory for South African Rider!

The 21-year-old from Potchefstroom was racing for Red Bull KTM Ajo under a brilliantly blue sky on the Riviera di Rimini in San Marino.

The last ten laps were the most exciting with Bastianini at the front at the beginning of the final lap… but Binder waited till that last lap to give it his all, and raced to victory.

The South African is now an incredible 106 points ahead of the rest on the leaderboard, which means the Championship title is within his grasp at MotorLand Aragon, Spain, where he will only need a lead of more than 100 points to win the trophy.

Binder’s incredible season began back in April when he blew away sports’ fans with his win at the Spanish Moto3 Grand Prix… after he started stone last. The victory was the first by a South African in the lightweight class, and the first time a South African had won in any class since Jon Ekerold won the 350cc race at Monza in 1981.
