168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Brad Binder has retained the faith of KTM despite his difficಞult season.

His struggles meant that the quietest whispers about his future were muttered, but KTM moved to quickly shut down ༺any idea that he would be replaced.

Instead, his teammate Jack Miller has lost out as Pedro Acosta joins Binder in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2025 MotoGP rider line-up as a factory KTM rider.

“Acosta is undoubte꧂dly a huge talent. But that doesn’t mean we are excluding Brad,” Pierer Mobility Group board member Hubert Trunkenpolz told .

“Brad has been really unlucky this year;📖 so many little things have gone wrong with him.

“But we don’t abandon a rider in☂ a🌸 situation like this.

“We know Binder is extremely fastꦑ and can ꦆwin MotoGP races.

“He has 🔯shown that time and time again with us - in all three GP classes.

“At the moment, a fe♋w things are not fitting together technically with Brad, so we have to help him a bit with the bike.

“We ha༺ve gone in a direction with his bike that has helped him on the traction side, but no longer gives him the feeling at the limit that he needs for top results.”

Binder was a title conte🌠nder for much of last seaso๊n, the best-performing non-Ducati rider.

He eventually finished fourth in 2023 bওut hasn’tꦡ sustained that form, or improved upon it, this year.

After finishing second in the seasonꩲ-opener in Q♑atar, Binder has rarely troubled the front-runners.

Teenage rookie Aco🌌sta has, instead, been the best-performing KTM rider.

Binder has struggled to get to grips with the RC16 at recent rounds, and he f𝓀ell out of the lead in the Catalunya sprint.
