Brad Binder was once again the main face of Red Bull KTM Factory Racing in Qatar after scoring two second places in both races, losing only in the Sprint to Jorge Martín and on Sunday to Pecco Bagnaia. His performance left Francesco Guidotti quite satisfied, while in Jack Miller’s case, the hope is to see the Australian reach the top positions as soon as possible.
The Team Manager of the Austrian manufacturer analyzed the race of his two riders, starting with the South African: ‘A great race from Brad. He was excellent. This is not one of our best tracks – or it never was – so being second twice gives us a lot of confidence for the future. In addition, the change we made to the bike after the Sprint made him happy’.
As for Miller, who was tenth in the Sprint and last in the main race – after crashing right at the beginning – Guidotti deeply believes that #43 will return to his best soon: ‘The accident prevented Jack from getting anything out of the race, but I am sure he will be back near the front very soon. Portugal is another round for us and another challenge, but with Brad in this kind of form and Jack with potential, we can be optimistic’.
Brad Binder is second in the world championship with 29 points, while Jack Miller is in 21st place with no points scored so far.
