Binder ‘lucky to finish’ Austrian MotoGP after front tyre started ‘jumping’ Full story 👉 MotoGP AustrianGP
Starting from 12th, Binder made an unusually poor start by his standards before beginning to pick off the riders ahead of him.
And despite an attempted overtake on Espargaro at turn six - Binder ran slightly wide which allowed the Spaniard to cut back underneath him - Binder was in the midst of suffering from severe front tyre ‘jumping’. "I was really happy that everything was working and the bike was great but we were just missing a bit of competitiveness today.
"I tried my best anyway. It just wasn’t our day. Myself and the team are working hard, we’re not where we want to be but we’re slowly trying to work our way up the order."Rear tyre issues cost Miguel Oliveira at KTM’s home MotoGP
