The first free practice session of the French MotoGP Grand Prix did not end well for Brad Binder. In the final minutes, he suffered a crash, which was the only one of the morning session at Le Mans.
The Red Bull KTM rider lost control at turn 11 when he was already leaning, sliding into the gravel with the bike in front of him. There were no major physical consequences, but the bike suffered some damage.
At the time, there was about a minute left and the situation caused a yellow flag that affected other riders, resulting in invalidated laps.
Despite the crash, Binder still managed to stay in the top ten, with the eighth fastest time 0.521s behind leader Jorge Martín (Prima Pramac/Ducati). You can see the incident below.
