Binder pleased with fifth in Portugal

The Mercury

|

November 11, 2025

RED Bull KTM rider Brad Binder left the Algarve International Circuit a satisfied man after securing a second consecutive fifth-place finish at the Portuguese MotoGP this past weekend.

- OBAKENG MELETSE

The South African collected a total of 12 points from the weekend in Portimao - one from the sprint and 11 from the main race - moving him up to 145 points overall, just one shy of breaking into the Top 10. He now trails 10th-placed Raul Fernandez, who sits on 146 points.

Although still without a win or podium this season, Binder has shown stronger form in the latter half of the campaign after a challenging start. He'll be aiming to close the season on a high note when the curtain falls at the Valencia GP this coming weekend.
