While it wasn’t the double win he and KTM were hoping for🌜, Binder showed that more steps forward have been made by the A꧂ustrian brand.

Binder also qualified on the first row for just the second time in his MotoGP career, ဣwhile teammate Jack Miller was one place back in fourth.

Summing up his weekend to the team in parc fe⛎rme, Binder said: "I tried so hard man! It was not quite enough. The braking on my bike was next level compared to yesterday. 

"I thought ♉‘oh f**k, I’ve burned my tyre’ and then I saw the gap and was like maybe I’m okay. 

"It’s not two wins but it’s two seconds. Lap four was the sam🥂e as yesterday and he [Bagnaia] stayed the same. We’re close guys! If we can keep that grip…"

When the sprint and main race began, Binder was all over Bagnaia andಌ had the pace to contend for victory.

However, it was when front tyre pressures and rear grip became an issue that the South African started to drop a🥂way.

Despite that, Binder was in a very upbeat mood following the race as he thanked KTM for the recent improvements, w𒆙hile also discussing his new deal and what 😼he wants to achieve with KTM.

"I want you to know that I really appreciate you guys," added Binder. "Thank you for trusting in me for the next few seasons and I hope to b📖ring you guys to the top step very soon."
