Heading into the highly anticipated Thailand Grand Prix weekend, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing teammates Brad Binder and Jack Miller swapped their MotoGP racing bikes for something more agricultural.
Binder, who is from Krugersdorp, is known for being the only South African to race competitively at the MotoGP, the ultimate sport in motorbike racing. However, just before the Thailand Grand Prix, he and his teammate Jack had fun racing with Kra-Tae-Zings . The Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team stated that Binder and Miller raced their stand-up Kra-Tae-Zings on a remote Buriram farm at speeds up to 100km/h, navigating a series of comical challenges that tested their agility and coordination.
“After Brad triumphed in a hilariously bumpy first showdown through muddy puddles around the makeshift circuit, Jack secured the second victory in the exhilarating high-speed drag race. The unserious challenge served as the perfect warm-up for what is shaping up to be another thrilling MotoGP race weekend in Thailand,” the team said.“Initially, the toughest challenge for us riding these things was to keep the throttle in your hand.
“It’s not often we get to race anything for fun, just to have a good time and not worry. So, it was cool to do,” Binder concluded.
