The Circuit of the Americas is merciless as LIQUI MOLY Husqvarna Intact GP Moto2 team rider Darryn Binder can testify, having finished last after a strong fightback following a crash.

Darryn is, understandably, disappointed. Despite not feeling well and starting last on the grid, the South African managed to catapult himself up to 19th position within just one lap after a strong start. However, the 26-year-old then crashed in the seventeenth position in turn 15, which fortunately was a minor incident. He was able to continue the race, but ultimately crossed the finish line in last place.

During the two-week break until the Jerez Grand Prix from the 26th – 28th of April 2024, Darryn will do everything he can to get fully fit again so that he can then fight for points again on European soil.

Darryn Binder
P27 – (+1’17.291)
Moto2 World Championship 2024 – P20 – 1 Point

“Austin was a weekend to forget this time, unfortunately. After a tough day yesterday, I went into the race with the intention of making up as many positions as possible. I did my best at the beginning, had a good start and firing my way through the grid. But then I made a mistake when I overtook a rider in turn 15, which caused me to lose the front and the race was over. It’s a tough time, I’m still struggling. But I’m not giving up, I’m already looking forward to the next race.”
