While the 2023 MotoGP season was a very dominant one for Ducati, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder was not far away from winning races.

The KTM rider could have won the final race of the season before making a mistake when leading, and although he ended thꦡe year winless - Binder did win twice in the new sprint format - the expectation for 2024 is ༺to push on and become a title contender.

KTM seemingly has a package 🀅that is good enough to challenge Ducati, even though the latter still held an advantage at the Sepang tes🥃t.

“It’s insane,” Binder told MotoGP.com about the current level in the premier class. “It’s clear that we ꧂made a step forward ourselves but so did t𓆏he other guys. 

“It’s al🐽ways cool to see how Moto♏GP keeps stepping up and the level keeps rising.

“I felt like our bike is working much better than it has previously and we found some small things that made qu🌊ite a big differ🔯ence for me.

“Now it is all about putting the finer details together and I don’t think we’re farꦇ off at all.”

Binder finished last season as the best placed rider not on a Duc🎐ati, but the recently married South African felt as though a lot of opportunities went to waste.

The RC16 has been gradually improving🌜 every season and if they can provide Binder with a bike capable of winning, chances are he will make it happen given his ability to deliver standout performances every Sunday.

“Last year was a really good year for us,” began Binder. “We had꧃ a lot of good ಞdays and were about to fight for the podium most weekends.

“But I also made a lot of mistakes. I crashed a lot more than I normally do and I let a ༒lot of opportunities slip.

“I think that going forward, I’m really excited to see how we can manage this 🍸season.

“With all the experience from last year, we know 🔜that we’re in a much more competitive window to be even stronger this season.”
