Brad Binder
South African Brad Binder's meteoric rise through the MotoGP™ ranks began with a stunning Moto3™ title win in 2016. After an impressive campaign in the intermediate class with Red Bull KTM Ajo, he made the jump to the premier class in 2020 and made an instant impact, becoming the first rookie since Marc Marquez to win a race. Although winless in 2022, Binder continued to impress with three podium finishes and several impressive comebacks. With a competitive package, Binder is one to watch in 2023
