What a turnaround it has been for Red Bull KTM in recent weeks. After an underwhelming start to the season, the team has found its groove in the last two races at the Italian GP and most recently at the Catalan GP. South Africa's Brad Binder, however, said he didn’t get the best of starts last weekend and he lost a few positions. “I would have liked to have done a lot better than eighth place because I felt we had the potential, but I struggled with rear traction (on Sunday),” he said. Binder is looking for a podium finish in Germany at Sachsenring on June 20. | IOL Sport
