Binder will try keeping it tidy

MOTOGP: PHILLIP ISLAND IS A HAPPY HUNTING GROUND

- Jaco van der Merwe

With all eyes on the two-horse title race between Jorge Martin and Pecco Bagnaia at the Australian MotoGP this weekend, Brad Binder has the rare privilege of flying under the radar.

Binder will even play second fiddle to his Red Bull KTM teammate Jack Miller, who'll count on huge support at his home track at Phillip Island.

The South African star has a good record at the 4.45km layout, having won there twice in Moto2 and once in Moto3. His best finish in two premier class races Down Under is fourth, which he achieved last year.

KTM is confident going into the Australian Grand Prix after showing some good improvement again two weeks ago in Japan.
